Episode 135: Target Practice
1 Peter 2:9-12
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. -- 1 Peter 2:9-10 (CSB)
