Whether you’ve read the Bible for decades or you are just opening it for the very first time, this summer offers a powerful chance for all of us to anchor ourselves in the same truth at the exact same time.

Starting Monday, June 1st, we are doing something simple but deeply impactful: we are reading through the book of 1 Peter together!

1 Peter is a short, punchy, and deeply beautiful letter written to people who desperately needed a reminder of who they were and where their hope lived. Peter wrote to a scattered, struggling church trying to figure out how to live out their faith in a culture that didn’t always understand them. It tackles the massive, real-life themes we all face today:

• Living Hope: Discovering a joy that isn’t dependent on our circumstances.
• True Identity: Remembering that you are chosen, valued, and carry the very image of God.
• Resilient Community: Learning how to love one another deeply from the heart, especially when life gets complicated.

Savour the Flavour

Containing only five chapters, you could read it all in one sitting and be done with it. But like any good food, we want to savour all the ingredients! We aren’t just going to skim the surface—we want to read it, memorise it, meditate on it, and live it out.

How to Join In:

1. Get Reading: Grab your Bible and jump into reading starting June 1st.
2. Join the Forum: We’ve created a dedicated 1 Peter Forum on the Church Center App. Use it to share insights, ask tough questions, post your favourite verses, and see what others are learning.
3. Sunday Gatherings: To tie it all together, our Sunday teachings throughout June and July will align directly with our reading!

Let’s bring 1 Peter to life together this summer.
