Opening Up 1 Peter

 Most of us know what it’s like to struggle.  And most of us would appreciate some help—especially from someone who can sympathize, someone who knows what it’s like.  Peter is just the man for the job. He wants us to have the strength to go on, coupled with peace within. To that end he prescribes a healthy dose of hope.  But his aim isn’t just to make us feel good; he wants us to think straight and to live right.  One day the struggles will be over.  By God’s grace we can and will outlast them.  We just need to keep going ‘a little while’ longer, and, as Andrew Thomson demonstrates in this easy-to-read and practically applied commentary, Peter shows us how.
