Key Verses for today's Podcast

⁶  Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, ⁷  casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

 
1 Peter 5:6-7 (ESV)
 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Matthew 6:34 (ESV)

⁶  do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. ⁷  And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7 (ESV)

 
 When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.

Continuing our bible study, we look at 1 Peter 5, the final chapter in this series of a life in exile. In this chapter we see a final exhortation to both the young and old, to all believers, in how to conduct ourselves. He says to clothe yourselves with humility. We also give a high-level review of what we have learned throughout this journey through 1 Peter.

Peter warns us of our adversary the devil, but he reassures us of the care of the God of all grace.  I. Spiritual warfare and the devil, vv8-9a.. II. Suffering and the reassurance of the God of grace, vv9b-11. III. Solidarity in the body of Christ, vv12-14

"God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." How might that promise affect our relationship to church elders, to one another, and to our own circumstances and anxieties? I. Humility toward church elders, v5a. II. Humility toward one another, v5b. III. Humility toward God, vv6-7.

What are elders and why should we care about that, and what do they do, and how should they do it, and why? I. The elder's office, v1. II. The elder's responsibility, v2. III. The elder's attitude, vv2-3. IV. The elder's reward, v4.
