    EXILES | Living the Future in the Present

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Brian reads through a sweeping portion of 1 Peter, from the opening blessing all the way into chapter 4, letting the full arc of Peter's argument land together. The throughline is clear: because Christ suffered and conquered darkness through the cross and resurrection, his people are now called to arm themselves with that same attitude. Living in the light means pursuing holiness, loving community deeply, controlling sinful desires, and being ready to give a reason for the hope that doesn't waver even under pressure.  Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.

    EXILES | The Victory of the Crucified King

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Seth works through 1 Peter 3:18-22 and keeps Peter's overarching argument in focus rather than getting lost in the strange details of the text. The central claim is this: Christ's suffering was the total, tactical defeat of sin, evil, and every power of darkness, a victory cosmic in scope that reclaims not just individuals but an entire people and ultimately all of creation. Baptism is the believer's public declaration of allegiance to that risen King, and daily life is where that allegiance is either confirmed or compromised. The powers of this world rarely ask us to reject Jesus outright, but they do invite us into a rival gospel that trades sacrifice for comfort and mission for convenience. Seth closes with a personal challenge: the church follows a scapegoat savior, which means stepping into the brokenness of the world by choice, bearing its burdens, and in doing so, imaging God to a watching world. Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope.

    EXILES | A Love That Makes People Curious

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Cory opens with a Father's Day moment: watching his four-year-old daughter mimic his mannerisms and realize people are always noticing more than we think. That same awareness, he connects directly to the text. Working through 1 Peter 3:8-16, he walks through three things the world should see and experience when it comes in contact with the church. First, Christ's character. Peter starts not with the world but with community, because pressure from the outside almost always gets taken out on the people closest to us. How the church treats one another, especially in conflict and hurt, is itself a witness. Second, Christ's peace. Cory draws a distinction between peacekeeping and peacemaking, calling believers to control their tongues and actively pursue reconciliation, grounded in the reality that God first pursued peace with us. Third, Christ's hope. When Christians genuinely fear God more than people, they become free, and that freedom becomes magnetic. A hope-filled life creates curiosity, and Peter says to be ready to explain it. Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope.

    EXILES | Witness In Ordinary Life

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM  Peoria's lead Pastor Jon opens with a simple but convicting reality: most people who don't know Jesus will never walk into a church, but they will watch how Christians respond under pressure. Working through 1 Peter 2 and into chapter 3, he covers three categories of everyday witness: public life, work life, and home life. In each one, Peter calls believers to absorb injustice and do good rather than retaliate, because the witness of the church shines brightest not through outrage or control but through humility, integrity, and love. The foundation for all of it is Jesus, the ultimate exile, who entrusted himself to the Father rather than defending himself.  Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope.

    EXILES | A People For God's Mission

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Brett opens with the disorientation that comes at every stage of life, from adolescence to midlife to old age, and names the deeper question underneath all of it: who am I and where do I belong? He traces a grand biblical story from creation through Abraham, Moses, and the prophets, showing that Israel was always called to be a kingdom of priests reflecting God to the nations. In 1 Peter 2, Peter takes that same language and applies it directly to the church. Our identity is not something we create but something declared over us by God — and it comes with a mission.  Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.

    EXILES | A New Kind Of Community

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Brian opens by challenging the idea that the only difference between a believer and an unbeliever is forgiveness. While forgiveness is real and glorious, Peter wants the church to understand something bigger: through the resurrection and the Spirit, followers of Jesus are a new humanity entirely. Born again through the living and enduring Word of God, they are not just pardoned sinners but a new kind of human being altogether. Brian calls the church to grow into that identity by craving Scripture, cutting sin out of the diet, and most importantly, loving one another deeply as the most powerful witness to a watching world.  Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.

    EXILES | The Long Story Finds Its Center

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Cory opens 1 Peter 1 with a call for exiles to live differently because of what Christ has done for them. He frames the message around a culture obsessed with happiness, describing how many people treat life like a giant Easter egg hunt, chasing career, pleasure, and approval, only to find it empty. But Peter points to a fuller life found in Jesus alone. Cory unpacks three realities shaping the exile's life: recognizing the privilege of our salvation, embracing the expectation of holiness motivated by both hope and reverent fear of God, and understanding the cost of our redemption in Christ. Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.

    EXILES | Hope Breaks Into History

    EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Brian opens 1 Peter's roadmap for living as exiles in a resistant world. Following Jesus creates real friction, new convictions, and relational pressure, and that tension is not a sign something is wrong. Using Peter's own story of cowardice turned courage through the resurrection, Brian challenges the church not to shrink back into a quiet, privatized faith. Instead, Peter's first instruction is to praise God. In the middle of suffering and loss, the Christian response is Hallelujah, anchored in God's mercy, the new birth we've been given, and the inheritance kept secure in heaven that no one can take away.  Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God’s kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.
