A Study of I Peter 5

Peter sought to build up the Church and encourage the people to serve the Lord.  He taught them to lead by example, to practice what they preached.  He promoted humility among the younger people, urging them to follow and serve.  He also encouraged vigilence, as our adversary is always on the prowl seeking to destroy.  Lastly, Peter turned his attention to showing love.  As we examine ourselves, let us always be seeking to find ways in which we as individuals and as a congregation can improve in these areas.
