In this passage of scripture, Peter is essentially telling his readers that, “if you call yourself a follower of Jesus then live like it”. Peter, is trying to show his readers (and us) that being a Christian is about so much more than just “identifying” as a follower of Christ.

We don't need special degrees, need to be talented in delivering the word or any other excuse we can come up with. God wants us all to spread the gospel, and in order for us to do that, we have to walk in the confidence of Christ.

1 Peter is a spiritual course on “strategic living,” in a Christ-rejecting world! It instructs us on how to “soar,” rather than “sour,” through our divine inheritance in Christ!

We are nearing the end of a verse by verse journey through one of the greatest books in the bible - Paul’s letter to the Romans.

About Al Pittman

Al was born in Panama City, Florida in 1955. His father was a career soldier, so the family traveled extensively. In 1973, when Al was seventeen years old, the family returned from a tour in Germany and settled in Colorado Springs. Soon after, Al realized God’s call on  his life and began serving in the music ministry as a bass guitarist with a Christian band  called, “The Rays of Light.” It was during this time that Al met Norma, and they were married on July 19, 1975. 

Al attended Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, graduating in 1977 with a degree in Biblical Studies. In 1991 Al and his family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and two years later he joined the staff of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque as an assistant pastor and co-worship leader. In the spring of 1997 the Lord called Al and his family back to Colorado Springs to pastor Calvary Worship Center. In 2006, Al earned his Master’s degree and in 2012 he earned his Doctorate degree in Ministry from Trinity Southwest University in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Al and Norma are the proud parents of three children, Renee, Nathan and Reggie, as well as proud grandparents. They covet your prayers for their family and ministry as they endeavor to live a life pleasing to the Father.
