Digital Logos Edition
Displaced—that’s what it feels like to be a Christian in an increasingly post-Christian world. You speak the language and understand the culture, yet don’t quite feel at home. How do you live as a Christian in a world that doesn’t share your convictions? Can you still hold firmly to biblical truth even as you love others? Robert Thune unpacks how the apostle Peter spoke to these issues in the first of his letters to first-century Christians.
Thune’s study examines living a gospel-shaped life in a contrary culture. You will be encouraged by the generous grace of God and how he has called Christians to a living hope and a deep joy that can be found even in the midst of trials and opposition.
This small group guide with leader’s notes includes ten in-depth lessons that include discussion questions, a short article to read, and a practical application section that can be used for one-to-one discipleship, small group, or large group settings.
1 Peter: Life as an Outsider is part of The Gospel-Centered Life in the Bible series published in partnership with Serge. Each book in the series examines how the gospel story is revealed throughout both the Old and New Testaments.

Clear and concise without being simplistic. Sound without being overly academic. And a format that is just what so many small groups have been looking for to be able to study the text, have a meaningful discussion, and apply the Bible to real life, with no homework required!

I can't imagine a more relevant book to study right now than 1 Peter. As pilgrims trying to make sense of a world filled with division and discouragement, we need the encouraging and hopeful words of this book. I give thanks that Bob Thune has provided such a timely study to help us not just survive but thrive as those who want to follow in the steps of our Savior, our living hope.
