The Bible is realistic as it explains the hardships we will endure in life—but there is good news in Christ! Pastor Josiah Boyd walks through 1 Peter 1:1–12 to show how even in the midst of trials, we can have confidence, hope, joy and thanksgiving through faith in Jesus Christ.

Josiah has served the Oakridge Bible Chapel family as one of its elders and one of its pastoral staff members since September 2018, before which he ministered as an associate pastor to a local congregation in the Canadian prairies. Josiah's desire is to be used by God to help equip the church for ministry, both while gathered (edification) and while scattered (evangelization). He is married to Patricia, and together they have five children—Jonah, Henry, Nathaniel, Josephine, and Benjamin.
