<p>In a world where the true church finds itself increasingly on the margins it's easy to feel discouraged. But what if this life on the margins is a gift? In The Grace of Exile we embark on a journey through 1 Peter a letter written to exiles and discover that the life of a religious minority though filled with hardships is infused with God's true grace.</p><p> </p><p>As we navigate the challenges of living in a post-Christian world this study offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be a faithful follower of Christ. We'll learn to rejoice in what we have in Christ even when the world rejects us and explore biblical strategies for building up our gospel communities.</p><p> </p><p>Whether you're serving on a university campus working in a corporate environment or engaging online The Grace of Exile will equip you with the wisdom needed to navigate your setting as a follower of Christ. You'll be comforted by the life Peter describes knowing that you don't have to fight flee or conform.</p><p> </p><p>Instead you'll discover the exciting possibilities of life on the margins-grace is there! As Peter declares I have written briefly to you exhorting and declaring that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it (1 Peter 5:12). Join us as we shift from maintenance to mission from settling to sojourning and from accepted to alien learning to stand firm in the grace of exile.</p>
