Is there any comfort to be found in a world of suffering?  What hope is there for the person who is going through trials or persecutions?  In his first letter to the churches in Asia, the apostle Peter speaks hope into a church that is undergoing severe tribulations.  This hope is not founded in wishful outcomes, but in the living hope of Jesus Christ, our living Savior.  Here, we examine three aspects of this Living Hope.  First, why is a living hope necessary?  Second, what is this living hope?  And finally, how do I acquire this living hope?
