What do you do when life feels unfair, painful, or completely out of your control? In this episode of the Sermon Notes Podcast, Jay Strother and Brian Ball slow down in 1 Peter 2:18–25 to explore a hard but hope-filled truth: you can’t always control your circumstances, but you can follow Jesus’ example in them. From submission that isn’t weakness, to suffering that becomes a witness, this conversation points us to Christ, our Shepherd and Overseer, who suffered for us and shows us how to endure with faithfulness and hope. Our mission is to engage the whole person with the whole gospel of Jesus Christ anywhere, anytime, with anybody.
