In 1 Peter, a man of faith and flaws and eyewitness to the life of Christ challenges us to look beyond our current circumstances to a future inheritance. He shares his concerns on big picture issues for the early church, describes believers’ true identity in Christ, and ultimately helps readers discover what it means to experience the Living Hope they have in Christ. Key themes of humility, submission, and identity in Christ guide the study of 1 Peter as participants are challenged to read the book in its entirety each week. Teaching videos are key to the understanding of this study.

From his letter we can learn about identity in Christ, humility as believers, and submission to earthly and heavenly authority.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 2: A Living Hope (35:57)—\u003c\/strong\u003e1 Peter 1:1-12 speaks of our inheritance through Christ. Because of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, we have a living hope in Him and an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 3: The Believer's Identity (29:01)—\u003c\/strong\u003eIn 1 Peter 1:13-25, Peter talks about our identity as children of God. More than that, he speaks to what this identity means for how we live as those who are called to be holy as He is holy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 4: Living Stones (29:36)—\u003c\/strong\u003eWe see in 1 Peter 2:1-12 that we are called, in light of Jesus, to live as mature believers, continuing in sanctification in order to be like Him, the cornerstone the builders rejected.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 5: Submission Part 1 (34:58)—\u003c\/strong\u003eNext Peter turns our attention to our behavior toward authority. In 1 Peter 2:13-25, he exhorts slaves to submit to their masters. In Peter's time, this was a way to protect the newly converted slaves, to give them practical advice on living like Christ in a sinful world with unbelieving masters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 6: Submission Part 2 (36:00)—\u003c\/strong\u003ePeter also looks at submission in marriage. In 1 Peter 3:1-12, he gives the example of Sarah as a wife who submitted to the authority of her husband. We can learn from the way she trusted God and her husband's relationship with Him later in life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 7: Submission Part 3 (28:28)—\u003c\/strong\u003eIn 1 Peter 3:13-25, Peter will round out his thoughts on submission by describing how to submit even in the midst of persecution. How should the believer respond to suffering that results from doing good?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 8: Self-controlled and Sober-minded (34:12)—\u003c\/strong\u003ePeter moves from endurance to action. How should the believer regard sin? What behaviors should be avoided? What behaviors should be embraced? How should we steward the gifts we have been given? And how can we learn not just to endure suffering, but to find joy in it?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSession 9: Clothed in Humility (33:23)—\u003c\/strong\u003ePeter ends his letter with words to those in authority and those under it.
