Join me as we begin studying 1 Peter. This will walk you through how I study, showing you the questions I ask and the answers I arrive at. I hope this study makes you delight in God's word and encourages you to dig deeper in your own Bible study time!

In these early verses, we get familiar with the setting, writer, and audience before spending a lot of time focusing on a term that is central to everything Peter is about to say - what it means to their identity, obedience, and life as God's "chosen."
