Surprised by Suffering? - Audio
1 Peter pt 1
Introduction to the Letter
22/01/2012
As we begin a series of messages from 1 Peter we familiarise ourselves  with the story behind the letter. Peter writes to Christians who suffer  in various ways for their faith, and who will undergo greater suffering  in the future. 
God in His providence gives them the help they need  through this letter so that they may be secure in His grace and not give  in to fear. As we examine the role of fear and worry in our own lives and  discover that we too need help to be freed from being controlled by  fear. Only then can we truly set apart Christ as Lord in our lives.
