38 - Receiving Mercy and Becoming God’s People - A Look at 1 Peter 2:10

Do you ever feel isolated from God? Do you ever wonder if God has expelled you from His kingdom? Because of Adam's sin, we were at odds with God. Yet God showed us great kindness and brought us into His family. He did this by His great grace and mercy. In this episode, I explore 1 Peter 2:10 and show you a marvelous transition and blessing where we received mercy and became God's people.
