Revealing the Secret Strength in 1 Peter 5's Suffering

Join Senior Minister Chris Gregg in part 5 of the "Living Hope" sermon series on 1 Peter, titled "Shepherds, Suffering, and Standing Firm." Dive into 1 Peter 5 as Chris explores Christlike leadership, the power of humility, resisting the devil, and God's promise of restoration after trials. Discover how shepherds lead like Christ, why humility opens grace, and how to stand firm in faith amid suffering. Perfect for pastors, leaders, believers facing adversity, and anyone seeking biblical truth on spiritual strength, grace, and eternal glory.

Key Highlights:
Shepherds Lead Like Christ: Learn the marks of willing, eager, and humble leadership from 1 Peter 5:1-4.
The Power of Humility: Unpack why pride blocks grace and how casting anxieties on God brings exaltation (1 Peter 5:5-7).
Be Alert—The Enemy Prowls: Insights on resisting the devil like a roaring lion (1 Peter 5:8-9).
The God of All Grace Restores: God's four actions—restore, confirm, strengthen, establish—after suffering (1 Peter 5:10-11).
Final Words of Peace: Encouragement to stand firm in God's true grace (1 Peter 5:12-14).

This episode from FCC Brazil's podcast equips you with practical applications for leaders to shepherd with compassion, humility as spiritual protection, and assurance that suffering is temporary while God's restoration is permanent. Inspired by Peter's letter to strengthen suffering believers, Chris draws on analogies like the servant coach, bowed head receiving the crown, and rebuilding stronger after storms.
