When Things Don't Go As Planned (7 of 8)
Series: No Place Like Home
Jeff Geyer
1 Peter 3:13-4:19
Big Idea: Suffering affects all of us. Some more than others. What if suffering was more than just a good thing or bad thing but a necessary thing? Peter helps us to expect suffering, understand suffering, and prepare for suffering because it's coming.
Intro: There has been plenty of change that we've experience since March. As we've dove into this fall, there is still plenty of change that we'll experience. There is school, work, an election, and holidays. On top of all that, there are relationships-marriage, kids, work, school, church. We want to take a look at a letter Peter wrote and find some inspiration as we end 2020 well.
Peter, a close friend to Jesus, wrote a letter that circulated around local churches. This letter was written to encourage followers of Jesus that hope in our true home empowers us to live Jesus-centered lives in our temporary home. This big idea will be seen through each week as we read through Peter's first of two letters.

Each week there will be discussion questions from the Sunday teaching. We believe that doing a study like this together will strengthen our groups, which will strengthen our church. Having a group of people going in the same direction under the same mission/vision can achieve a lot. Think of a football team...when every one is going the same direction under the same mission/vision winning usually happens.
Tension: Allow me a moment to preface what we'll address today as it'll be a bit heavy. I'll do my best to create some light moments. Some of what we'll discuss will be one of two things: While we're still in this pandemic, it may be personal to you and your feelings may bring tension as you watch or listen as we read Peter's letter. Although culture wo ...
