Displaced - that's how many Christians feel in an increasingly post-Christian culture. You may know the language and customs around you, yet still feel like an outsider. In 1 Peter: Life as an Outsider, Robert H. Thune examines how the apostle Peter's message to first-century believers speaks directly to Christians who face cultural pressure, opposition, and spiritual dislocation.
Thune traces a gospel-shaped way of life for those living in a contrary culture, pointing readers to God's generous grace, the living hope we have in Christ, and the deep joy available even amid trials. The study emphasizes remaining firmly rooted in biblical truth while continuing to love and serve neighbors who do not share Christian convictions.
This small-group study guide includes leader's notes and ten in-depth lessons with discussion questions, a short teaching article for each session, and practical application sections. It works well for individual study, one-to-one discipleship, small groups, or larger group settings. 1 Peter: Life as an Outsider is part of The Gospel-Centered Life in the Bible series, published in partnership with Serge.
