Do you even skip through the opening greeting of a letter in order to get to the real meat and substance? What if you missed a critical part of the message? As we begin this series on 1 Peter let’s not skip over the greeting and miss part of God’s amazing message.

We live in a world with many religious people but what is true and pure religion in the eyes of God? How does the world around us pollute us so that what was meant to be pure and faultless often times becomes worthless?

Investing is a part of our lives. We invest in 401k plans, houses and careers yet for most of us those investments haven’t paid off well lately.

Why not reconsider your investment strategy and invest more heavily in people for the sake of eternity?
