But how? First Peter offers hope for the hurting. Christians scattered around the Roman Empire were objects of social ostracism, slander, mistreatment, and threats. Peter’s words encourage believers whose faith “is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold” (1 Peter 1:7). Trials are inevitable and valuable. Glorifying God in your suffering is possible. Discover with Pastor Chuck Swindoll principles for joy amid your pain!
