Six Bible studies on 1 Peter that will inspire you to live with joy and hope in the face of hardships.
Part of the Good Book Guides series.
The Christian life, lived well, is not easy. That's because we don't belong in this world. Peter writes to churches who were being increasingly marginalized and misunderstood by their surrounding culture—to churches just like ours. Yet he did not tell them to retreat, but to keep journeying on, and to do so not with gritted teeth but with joy and hope.
These six sessions will inspire and equip you to live in that same way as you journey home. Use alone or alongside 1 Peter For You.

I'm using this with three teenagers and we all find it very helpful and a good way to really think about what the Apostle Peter is saying, both to Christians then and to us as His people today. Thank you Juan and the Good Book Company!
One of a series of Bible Study books which work very well with a small group or for individual study. There is both breadth and depth in the helpful questions and the pointers to other Biblical passages which are relevant. One of the great strengths in this series is the Leaders Notes sections which can add significantly to the understanding arising out of these studies. Spiritual food for thought for all, even the most demanding of Bible students, and excellent value for money.
