Living Hope

Ben Foust

1 Peter 1:1-12

Peter writes to Christians scattered throughout the Roman empire and facing persecution. He urges them to put their hope in their future eternal inheritance. Christians today should have a mindset of being "resident aliens" on earth, whose true citizenship is in heaven, resulting in a refined faith.

Christ over Illness

Dave Schutter

Isaiah 53

Thinking Biblically about Christ's lordship over illness can help us to walk victoriously through our own illness and to pastor others dealing with illness. Through healing miracles during his earthly ministry, Jesus demonstrated his lordship over illness and death in order to validate his mission. His authority over physical illness affirms his authority over spiritual illness and his ability to heal us of our deepest problems. Practically this means four things: that a diagnosis is not one's destiny; a disease is not one's identity; suffering is not wasted; and physical demise is not eternal.

From Suffering to Glory

Chris Risley

Romans 8:14-39

Paul explains that God uses suffering in the life of the Christian to break away the outer man so that the Spirit can shine through us. Though unpleasant, when we take a godly perspective on suffering and draw near to God in trust and humility, he can use suffering to refine our character and make us more effective in ministry.
