In this episode of the Daily Bible Refresh, Dr. Brad Miller offers a progressive perspective on faith by exploring 2 Peter 3:11-18 through an accessible and actionable lens. Reminding listeners of the day’s scripture, he emphasizes living a holy life, anticipating a renewed world "landscaped with righteousness," and practicing purity and peace. Dr. Miller discusses the importance of interpreting God's patience as an opportunity for healing and reform, warns against distortions of scripture, and encourages practical action steps for justice, accessibility, and community support. The episode closes with a heartfelt prayer and a call for listeners to engage deeply in both personal growth and collective compassion.

Key Takeaways:

5. Holiness is portrayed as a shared, public commitment to peace and justice rather than private perfection.
6. Growth in grace requires ongoing learning, kind correction, and choosing love over fear, embodying Christ-like compassion in daily life.
