2 Peter Episode 5 : Living Hopefully in a Cynical World

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 5 of our 2 Peter series, we explore 2 Peter 3:1–14 and Peter's warning that in the last days "mockers" or empaiktēs—those who ridicule and dismiss God's promises—will arise. We consider how this spirit of cynicism and scepticism is increasingly evident in our society and, perhaps surprisingly, often among older generations who have experienced disappointment, loss, and disillusionment. Yet Peter calls believers to resist cynicism, remember God's faithfulness, and live with hope, holiness, and expectancy as we await the return of Christ. This episode is an encouragement to keep our hearts tender, our faith alive, and our eyes fixed on the God who is patient, faithful, and true to every promise He has made.
