Sermon Series: The Way
God’s mission to redeem and restore creation through His people exponentially grew when He indwelled His people with the Holy Spirit, creating the church! Known simply as Followers of the Way, the earliest Christians show us the essence of what Christ has redeemed us to be as a growing biblical community.

Grounded Healing
As Peter continues to encourage these persecuted exiles, he reminds them that while all people will suffer in life, devoted Christ followers never suffer in vain. For in the same way we are healed by Christ’s wounds, our own lack of vengeance – especially in response to unjust persecution - becomes both a witness and declaration of the eternal healing of the cross.
