Stewards of grace

Peter places gifts alongside earnest love, hospitality, prayer, and service. Each believer is to steward what has been received, relying on the strength God supplies. Speaking and serving both belong to the life of grace. The goal is God's glory through Jesus Christ. You do not need a platform to begin: faithfulness starts with what God has entrusted to you.
