This Sunday, our sermon continues our look at 1 Peter 3:8-22.
What gives us the strength to continue to live a holy life even in the midst of suffering and adversity? How can we live up to the sometimes unreachable standard that Jesus laid out for us? Hint: It has to do with water and babies.
Come hear how our baptism is foundational for our life in Christ, even those unreachable standard!

This week we’ll continue our journey through 1 Peter, focusing on the phrase, ”let yourselves be built into a spiritual house.”

Pastor Rhodes addresses the toughest “forgiveness story” of them all: when Jesus is on the cross and says, “Father, forgive them.” How are we to imitate such an extreme act of forgiveness?
