5-17-26: The Power of the Word of God

About this episode

This episode explores the transforming power of the Word of God as discussed in the First Epistle of Peter.

This week, we explore the First Epistle of Peter 2:1–8 and the transforming power of the Word of God. Peter calls believers to put away malice, deceit, envy, and slander, and instead hunger for God’s truth like newborn infants craving pure milk. As we draw near to Christ, the living Stone rejected by the world yet chosen by God, His Word shapes us into a spiritual house built on an unshakable foundation. This sermon reflects on how Scripture nourishes faith, strengthens identity, and calls us to trust fully in Jesus, the cornerstone who will never fail those who believe.
