EXILES | Scattered Exiles

EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Cory introduced Exiles, a journey through 1 Peter unpacking what it means to follow Jesus as outsiders in a Babylonian world. As God's elect, we are chosen for His mission. As Exiles, we are called to faithfully engage the world, not retreat from it, as living previews of His kingdom. Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.Scattered Exiles1 Peter 1: 1-2Cory Kasperson | Next Gen Pastor5.10.2026
