Days after Charlie Kirk's assassination, tens of thousands of new chapter requests poured into his organization — ten times what it had before. Stephen Davey opens with that story, along with Tertullian's old line that the blood of the martyr is the seed of the church, before turning to Peter's own words to a persecuted first-century audience in 2 Peter 1:1. Writing to believers who were being beaten, exiled, and killed for their faith, Peter reminds them of three things no one can take away: they share the same saving faith as the apostles, they carry the same priceless treasure of salvation, and they hold the same unshakable truth that Jesus Christ is both God and Savior. Davey frames it simply — if you had only thirty seconds left to live, this is what would actually matter.
