Description

Assuming we live in a secular age, could 1 Peter be a New Testament Epistle with a timely message 'for such a time as this?' In this lecture, we consider how the wisdom of this book can give direction to the content and contours of disciple-making for Christian communities, particularly those that foster spiritual maturity in churches seeking to be intentionally present to its social context.
