“Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you.”

1 Peter 4:12

At a time of chaos, unrest and pandemic…struggle, suffering, persecution and fear can cause either growth or bitterness in the believer’s life. Response determines result! In the book of 1 Peter, we are encouraged to conduct ourselves courageously (despite our suffering) for the sake of the Body and Messiah.
