Una vita all’aperto in una foresta, senza casa e sempre in fuga: questo è tutto quello che sanno Cayenne e suo fratello Joshua. Solo il loro leader, Stephan, conosce il motivo per cui sono costretti a vivere in quelle condizioni e quale pericolo devono affrontare. Hanno trascorso ogni minuto della loro esistenza sempre insieme e li ha allenati molto duramente, con esercitazioni al limite delle loro possibilità. E tanto Stephan non tollera alcun contatto con la società quanto Cayenne desidera una normale vita da adolescente. Ma non ha idea che presto avrà bisogno di tutto ciò che Stephan le ha insegnato. Perché la lotta per la sopravvivenza è già iniziata: la prima regola è quella di non morire e la seconda è quella di difendersi… ma da chi? E perché? Una minaccia che viene dal passato, una vita tesa al limite, un sacrificio che non dà altra scelta se non uccidere o essere ucciso. Regola nr. 1: Non morire è un thriller dal grande ritmo che miscela una trama potente, personaggi inediti e un finale assolutamente inaspettato.

First Peter is written to a group of people in Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey) who are living as strangers and exiles within their cultural context. They are described as the new family of God who become the dwelling place of God. As such, their lives are to be marked by holiness that is visible to the world around them and demonstrated in very practical ways. As Christians, we too find ourselves challenged to live out our faith in a context that is more and more challenging. In this OneBook: Daily-Weekly study, Ruth Anne Reese helps readers understand and respond to 1 Peter's call to live as the new family of God within the context of a challenging world. This eight-week study will encourage participants to think about what it means to be the church and to take up practices that demonstrate the love of God in community.
