Brothers and sisters, you are God’s chosen people—exiled here in Southeastern Pennsylvania for a short time. Stand firm and hold fast to Christ! As a people set apart for God, how should our lives be different because of the Gospel? How can we live as faithful disciples of Jesus in a world that doesn’t understand the things of God and can be hostile to His people? Join us this Sunday as we begin the first week of our series in 1 Peter, Chosen to be Set Apart. This week we will look at how God calls and equips us to be set apart and distinct, even in the midst of trials and suffering.
