Building on the Basics, Week 19: Hope - Live In It (Part 7)

Have you ever been in a situation where someone said something or did something unkind toward you?  Do you remember how you reacted in that situation?  Did you react based on your hurt or your anger?  Or, did you react in a spiritual way?  Which way do you think pleases God?   As we look deeper into 1 Peter chapter 3, we’re going to find Peter showing followers of Jesus how we are to interact with all people in general, even those who mistreat us.  As Pastor Clay explains, when we allow godly characteristics to be built into us by the Holy Spirit, then what comes out of us, our conduct, is not based on our flesh, but on what God desires to see in us.
