What does it mean to live a godly life in an increasingly ungodly culture? In this episode of Lose Yourself, Dr. Mike Cunningham explores 1 Peter 2:11–25 and Peter’s call to live as faithful citizens and free servants of God. Christians are neither called to retreat from society nor conform to it, but to honor others, pursue what is good, and remain faithful—even when treated unjustly. Following the example of Jesus, we can respond to hostility without surrendering truth and demonstrate a freedom that no government or culture can take away. The world may change, but Christ remains. Therefore, be faithful.
