Discover what it means to live with unshakeable purpose and hope! In our study of 1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:10, we explore how Paul encouraged believers facing real persecution—teaching us how the Gospel calls us to be "co-workers with God" and find our identity in His mission, not in worldly comfort. Whether you're navigating challenges or seeking deeper purpose, this study offers practical truth about living by faith and love that withstands any storm. Join a community that grows together and discovers the joy of hearts anchored in Gospel truth.

1 Thessalonians 2:1-16
In our study of 1 Thessalonians 2:1-16, we discovered that Paul's ministry in Thessalonica demonstrates that God is the source of our faith, love, and hope. Despite facing shameful treatment in Philippi, Paul and his companions became even bolder in sharing the Gospel - showing us that suffering can produce courageous faith rather than fear. Paul defended his pure motives before false accusers, living for an "audience of one" - God alone. He modeled ministry that flows from God's heart, caring for the Thessalonians like both a gentle nursing mother and an encouraging father. Most importantly, we learned that our manner of walking carries kingdom weight - our lives are always preaching, and people are watching to see if our conduct matches our claims about God.Join us for this powerful study as we explore how God uses even our suffering to strengthen our faith and make us bold witnesses for His kingdom.

1 Thessalonians 1
Join us as we dive into 1 Thessalonians chapter 1, exploring how "the Gospel is the power of God at work in and through His church to make all things new." We'll explore what it means to be a church marked by faith, love, and hope—despite persecution. Through verse-by-verse study, we examine how God transforms lives through the Gospel that comes in word, power, and the Holy Spirit. This study challenges us to turn from our modern idols, imitate Christ in affliction, and actively spread the Gospel while waiting for Jesus' return. If the resurrection is true, everything is going to be all right.
