Stand
Stand
Trying to follow Jesus today is only becoming more challenging. Cultural opposition is real and growing. And there can even be rifts “within the ranks” that add greater stress and further stain the reputation of the church. For Christ followers everywhere--and for anyone trying to make it in this world--the state of things can be discouraging! Into exactly this kind of moment, the book of 1 Peter speaks powerfully with fresh perspective to embolden us to stand strong in the face of trials. Like Peter, anyone who wants to follow in the steps of Jesus has to know when to take their STAND.
