Grieved by Various Trials1 Peter 1:6-12 Message SlidesFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here. We can endure trials because we know they are temporary. We can endure trials because we know they are necessary. We can endure trials because we know the bigger picture. Home Church Questions1. What are some examples of trials you experience in your life? What are some examples of trials we experience since we are “elect exiles” (1:1)? In other words, what types of conflict should a Christian expect to experience? 2. We can endure trials because we know they are temporary (1:6). Share an example of a trial you experienced when you were younger that you no longer experience. What advice would you give to your younger self? How might this advice apply to you today? 3. Our suffering and trials are temporary, and they lead to future glory (1:7). Does the thought of future glory motivate you to faithfully endure and rejoice now? What are some of the specific aspects of future glory that are most motivating to you? What should we do if we are not motivated by this biblical teaching?4. We can endure trials because we know they are necessary (1:6-9). Have you come through any trials in the past that you can look back to and see how your faith was strengthened and proven genuine through it? How might this experience encourage you in your faith today?5. What is an example of a trial you are experiencing now? In what ways can you respond and react to that trial and demonstrate the genuineness of your faith? 6. We can endure trials because we know the bigger picture (vv.10-12). What insights from vv.10-12 are especially fascinating to you?7. How does thinking about “the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glories” transform our understanding of trials (v.11)? Spend some time meditating on the life and ministry of Jesus and how this should impact our response to our trials.Pray for the Unreached: The Hausa in Nigeria The Hausa are one of the largest and most influential peoples in West Africa, with deep cultural ties to Islam that make gospel breakthrough extremely difficult. Though they have Scripture and many ministry resources in their language, most remain resistant due to strong religious identity and social pressure. Life can still be challenging, with low literacy and limited opportunities, especially for women. Pray that God would soften hearts among the Hausa, open doors for gospel workers, and raise up local believers who courageously share Christ where following Him is costly.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 12/28 23,342Giving For 01/04 44,237YTD Budget 934,615Giving 895,109 OVER/(UNDER) (39,506) Fellowship Night of WorshipEach year at our Night of Worship, we gather in a circle with the band on the floor alongside the congregation, creating an intimate and meaningful space to begin the year together.

Message SlidessThe Purpose of 1 Peter - Karen JobesStrange Religion - Nijay GuptaStrange Religion Expanded - Nijay GuptaThe Trinity and Salvation - SwindollPeter: Upon this Rock - Brian LitfinINTRODUCTION: παρεπίδημος - Strangers, Sojourners, Aliens (1:1)“living as a long-term resident in a land where you do not have citizenshipand you still live by the laws and culture of your true homeland.”Chosen by God(The Trinitarian Foundation of Salvation)• Chosen by God: Salvation begins with God's choice (1:2a).• Sanctified by the Spirit: Salvation progresses by the work of the Spirit (1:2b).• Redeemed by Jesus Christ: Salvation is accomplished by and for Jesus (1:2c).A Living Hope(The Past, Present & Future of Salvation)• Worship: The right response to the glories of salvation is praise (1:3a).• New Birth: Salvation is a new identity, a new family, and a new start (1:3b).• Living Hope: The hope of salvation is the resurrection of Jesus Christ (1:3b).• Imperishable Inheritance: The full possession of salvation is in heaven (1:4).• Future Salvation: Final Salvation is guaranteed by the power of God (1:5).The glories of salvation are based in the work of the Trinity,secure as a future inheritance of Christ-like resurrection and,assured by God's power to be fully possessed in heaven.Home Church QuestionsIntroduction: Strangers, Sojourners, Aliens (1:1)1. In what ways do you currently feel like an alien or outsider in the world (e.g., culturally, morally, relationally)? How does knowing you are “chosen by God” reshape that feeling?2. If this world is not our ultimate home, how should that truth affect the priorities and investments we make day-to-day (time, money, relationships, ambitions)?Chosen by God: The Trinitarian Foundation of Salvation (1:2)3. The text says we are chosen “for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood.” How does understanding election (being chosen by God) motivate obedience?4. Sanctification by the Spirit is an ongoing process. Where have you seen evidence of the Spirit's sanctifying work in your life recently?Where do you sense resistance or need for greater surrender?A Living Hope: The Past, Present & Future of Salvation (1:3–5)5. How does Christ's resurrection give your hope a quality that is different from mere optimism or positive thinking?6. How does meditating on this heavenly inheritance free you from fear, envy, or over-attachment here and now?7. What does it mean to you that God Himself is actively protecting your faith and future salvation? How does this truth bring comfort when you feel spiritually vulnerable or when faith feels weak?8. Peter begins by focusing on the glories of salvation rather than their suffering. Why do you think he does this?UPG FOCUS: The Deaf in Pakistan The Deaf live with significant isolation due to communication barriers. Few people know Pakistan Sign Language, limiting education, work, and relationships. Most are Muslim with almost no access to Scripture or gospel resources they can understand. Pray for God to reveal Christ to the Deaf of Pakistan through dreams, visions, and clear communication. Ask for sign-language Scripture efforts to advance and for workers to love and serve this unreached community.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 12/21 30,280Giving For 12/28 23,342YTD Budget 900,000Giving 850,872 OVER/(UNDER) (49,128) Fellowship 101New to Fellowship?

20 Proverbs 20-21; 28 Hosea 9-14; 29 Joel 1-3; 19 Psalms119 89-176; 59 James 4-5; 1 Peter 1-5

Can a Christian truly rejoice while grieving?In this exegetical sermon from 1 Peter 1:6–9, we explore the tension every believer feels but rarely knows how to explain—joy and sorrow existing at the same time. Peter writes to suffering saints and reminds them that present trials do not cancel salvation; they confirm it.Building on the future hope of 1 Peter 1:3–5, this passage turns our attention to present-day adversity: grief that is real, trials that are necessary, and a faith that is being tested like gold in a refining fire. These trials are not random, nor cruel—they are purposeful, measured, and governed by a Refiner who knows exactly when to pull the silver from the flame.This message walks verse by verse through how:Christians can rejoice and grieve without contradictionTrials test faith, not to destroy it, but to prove it genuineFaith is more precious than gold, because everything else perishesTrusting God in suffering brings Him pleasure and leads to future gloryBelieving without seeing produces an abiding, inexpressible joySalvation is not only future—it is being received even nowFrom the forge of suffering to the revelation of Jesus Christ, this sermon reminds weary believers that their trials are temporary, their salvation is secure, and their joy—though sometimes tear-stained—is filled with glory.If you are walking through hardship and wondering what God is doing, this message invites you to see your suffering through the lens of a living hope, a refining faith, and a salvation already at work.
