Read as you listen: Chuck Smith on 1 Peter 1

Read the opening of his teaching

Tonight let's turn to First Peter chapter one. Of the many disciples that were following Jesus, He chose twelve to be apostles. One of the twelve that was chosen as an apostle was Simon Peter. Simon Peter was by profession a fisherman. He was called by the Lord from fishing for those Saint Peter's fish in the Sea of Galilee to become a fisher of men, and was a very impulsive person by nature, according to tradition, a very big man physically. He became one of the leaders in the church.

And now he is writing his first epistle introducing himself as,

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers (1:1)

The word translated "scattered" there is the Greek word "disperse."
