Chosen Family: Discovering Our True Identity in Christ
September 22, 2024 / Eric Huffman
Two thousand years ago, out of the fires of persecution and the blood of martyrs, arose the most diverse and dynamic family that the world has ever seen. Originally known as "The Way", this band of brothers and sisters discovered their true identity in their leader, Jesus of Nazareth, and after his death and resurrection, their movement multiplied exponentially as they welcomed men and women of every nation and race. Amidst this explosion, men like Simon Peter wrote letters to encourage other Christians as they faced pressure and hostility throughout the Roman Empire. Two millennia later, these letters continue to inspire followers of Christ in every corner of the world. Join The Story Church as we explore the letter known as 1 Peter on Sundays this fall (August 18-October 20) to discover our true identity and purpose together.
