Trials, Refined Faith, and Inexpressible Joy (1 Peter 1:6-9)

Key Idea: Trials are God doing what is necessary to pursue what is precious.

1. God will do what is necessary to pursue what is precious.
2. The precious that God wants for us is refined faith.
3. Refined faith leads to inexpressible joy.
   1. Joy in knowing and experience the object of your love (v. 8)
   2. Joy in living life within God’s faithfulness (v. 8)
   3. Joy in the reality that the best is yet to come (v. 9)
