Our Living Hope in Exile

Life as pilgrims in exile from our heavenly home creates many challenges, but remembering the true hope we have in Christ helps us to persevere and to be refined by the Lord as we face trials on account of our Christian faith. In this message, Dr. Burk Parsons considers 1 Peter 1:3–9, exploring the living hope that we have and how this hope sustains us through the various trials that Peter mentions until the outcome of our faith is consummated in the complete redemption of our souls.
