Christian Living in a Hostile World

Morning Service
Mar 1, 2015

Surrounded by a culture that was hostile to the Gospel, early Christians faced great difficulty in knowing how to follow Jesus in their situation. Two principles in the Apostle Peter's first letter helped them face this challenge: to live honorably before others and to live submissively before authority. This message unpacks these two principles and explains how and why believers should apply them in our lives today.

1 Peter 2:11-17
