Lectionary: 1 Peter - Sunday, May 10 2026

Drawing from 1 Peter 3:8-18 and Psalm 34, this Pastor Mike's sermon reminded us that the truly good life isn't found in wealth or ease, but in walking God's way—living with humility, compassion, tender hearts, and unity toward one another. While this kind of countercultural living won't always lead to worldly success, and suffering will still come, Peter assures us that a life rooted in Christ is still the best life because it's a life with God, where even our hardships have purpose and can draw us closer to Him. We're invited to let one another into our struggles, to walk together with gentleness and grace, and to let our love for God and each other be a witness to a world that desperately needs it.
