Build and Plant | Seeking Shalom For Our City
from Resurrection City Church - St. Paul Minnesota · host Resurrection City Church
In 1 Peter, the recipients of the letter are referred to as “exiles,” a word that describes Christians in all times and places. Our home is where God’s presence and glory are all around us, and we don’t live in that place yet, so we need to remember our identity and take seriously our state as exiles. But wisdom is required to know what it looks like for us to live in this world now. Jeremiah’s letter to the Jerusalem exiles has God’s wisdom for us. In this sermon, Pastor Joel breaks it all down: Buying instead of renting, seeking shalom, being not afraid, and staying distinct. This is an important sermon for all Christians as we navigate our own exile well.
