Suffering for Righteousness' Sake

Peter reminds us that choosing to live “for the will of God” rather than indulging worldly passions becomes a powerful witness to those around us. When our former peers see us denying sinful desires—speaking truth instead of slander, extending hospitality instead of self-indulgence—they’re confronted with a living example of Christ’s transforming grace. Our faith-filled choices challenge their assumptions and open doors for the gospel.
