1 Peter refers to Christians as both "elect" and "exiles" - two words that you wouldn't think go together. While we welcome being called elect or chosen by God, the thought of being an "exile" isn't the most encouraging notion. Yet, our true purpose and true power from God lies in our accepting and embracing this role. Listen as we discuss how Peter's message would've encouraged his original audience and why it offers both uplifting and challenging truths to modern ears.
