Listen "First Peter 2:18-20 // The Favor of God (Preached on July 16, 2023)"
Episode Synopsis
Relationships can be complicated. And this was especially true for early Christians. Slavery in the first century Roman Empire was a reality. Though faith in Jesus Christ sets a person free from the bondage of sin, it doesn't necessarily change his social condition. It was easy enough for a slave who became a Christian to relate to a good and gentle master. But what about when his boss was harsh and unreasonable? Peter answers this question by considering that which finds favor with God.
