Hope in Exile

Jesus’ resurrection has changed everything, giving us a living hope that is grounded in God’s mercy and secured beyond the reach of loss. In a world where every good thing eventually fades, we are invited into a hope that does not. As we begin 1 Peter, we are learning that following Jesus starts not with trying harder, but with being made new by God himself, so that we can live with a steady, unshakable hope in the midst of whatever comes.
