Message: “Something to Hold Onto (1 Peter 1:1-9)” from Dr. Tom Riley

A message from the series "Sunday Service." Have you ever been overwhelmed by the challenges and changes around you? The Apostle Peter and many in the early church knew that feeling. They were not only flooded by change, but many faced the challenge of deadly persecution. In 1 Peter 1:1-9, Peter reminded them (and us!) of the powerful source of the hope we have in Jesus. It is a living hope based on a past event, looking forward to a future event, and with much to offer even in the present moment.

Wait on the Lord

Back in Numbers 13 and 14 we read that the children of Israel had been led to the edge of the Promised Land. God had led Moses to send in 12 spies to search out the land. They had returned with stories of a great land that was truly a land of milk and honey as God had promised . . . but it was also filled with giants. 10 of the spies were convinced that the situation was hopeless. Their view infected the people of Israel and the people rebelled against Moses and chose not to trust God and enter the Promised Land. Because of their unbelief, God declared that no one over the age of 20 would ever enter the Promised Land, except for Joshua and Caleb, the two spies who had believed in God and had declared that God could deliver the children of Israel.
