05.03.26: Listen to Peter: Chosen, Royal, and Holy

What did the world see when it first looked at the church? A ragtag group of peasants following a failed messiah. On the fifth Sunday of Easter, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons continues the Listen to Peter series with 1 Peter 2:2–10 — the passage where the apostle hands marginalized believers four words that have outlived every empire that mocked them: chosen, royal, holy, God's own. Drawing on the South African concept of ubuntu and the Pygmalion effect, Longbons argues that what we see is what we become. Don't beg the world for validation. You've already been called out of the darkness. #ListenToPeter #NotesOnDoingChristianity #1Peter2 #LivingStones #RoyalPriesthood #HolyNation #ChosenPeople #FifthSundayOfEaster #EasterSeason #Ubuntu #ArtOfSeeing #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons
