Our God Cares 1 Peter 5:1–11

The first-century followers of Jesus Christ were a peculiar bunch. Or so thought the unbelievers of Asia Minor (modern Turkey). Yet the apostle Peter encouraged the brethren to become even more peculiar in the faith. Despite their persecution, Peter admonished them to treasure the salvation provided by Christ, live holy lives, anticipate Christ’s imminent return, and shine in their testimony.
