1 Peter 1:1-12 – The Joy that Sustains

Where is God in suffering? That is a question that believers and unbelievers alike often ask as they face the challenges of life.

Peter addresses this question head on and helps us develop an understanding of God’s purpose in allowing suffering into our lives. For the believer, suffering is not something we encounter by mere chance but is filtered through the hands of God for his divine purposes. Thus, we can have joy in fellowship with the God who is there when we are afflicted by trials. We can know the joy that sustains.

Ministry Goals

It is my desire to serve in a local church
body where I can help train up men and
women into mature Christian leaders. I
have a heart and passion for discipleship and seeing believers grow in their
knowledge of Scripture and faithful
application of Biblical principles in day
to day living.

I desire to reach the hurting and those
struggling through the difficulties of
living in a fallen world. I love to see
individual church members grow in
being able to care for one another and
minister the word according to the
needs of the moment.

Nothing excites me more than seeing it
“click” when someone understands how
the Bible fits together and speaks into
their life.
