First Peter is addressed to Christians facing difficult challenges in their lives. It calls them to continue their struggle in the face of suffering and to be a submissive (not rebellious) people. In this short letter, Peter discusses many important topics: living holy lives, the fear of the Lord, Satan and temptation, persevering in the face of trials, submission to the government, the Holy Spirit, husband-wife relationships, effective prayer, baptism, unity, directions to elders who lead churches (and to those younger in the congregation, who are led by them), loving one another, humility, and our ultimate goal of salvation. Notes are provided for each lesson in this eleven-part series for self-study, reflection, and as a resource to teach others.
