What can the Righteous do?

Mar 15, 2026    Ben Gibson

On the heals of our conversations about subjection to every human institution and the longing of every heart for the Kingdom of Christ to come on earth just as it is in Heaven, we realize we have some rebuilding and some repairing to do. I am reminded of Psalm 11:3, “…if the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?”


In the face of corruption, division, immorality, depravity, injustice, violence… In the midst of suffering and hardship at the hands of a culture that is increasingly hostile toward the gospel, how can we make a difference? Where do we start?


What can the righteous do?


1 Peter 3:13 - 17 gives us 6 specific answers to that question.
