Have you ever wondered if it’s possible to prepare for the difficulties of life? What if we could be proactive when it comes to facing hardships? Could we brace ourselves before trials knock us off our feet?

In his message, “Readiness for the Rough Times,” Dr. Stanley examines how Scripture holds the key to victory, no matter what troubles may arise. First Peter offers us five important steps that equip us to triumph, despite our challenges, enabling us to live out our holiness by obeying Christ and imitating His ways.

This message is part of the series, Living Triumphantly: A Study of First Peter, and covers 1 Peter 1:13-16.
