1 Thessalonians 4:13-5:11 . Ps Louis Baron continues our Growing In series by looking at Paul's encouragement to hope in the return of Jesus. The second coming of Christ is the greatest hope for our lives - but this cannot merely a theological concept. The challenge for us as God's people, then, is not just the coming of Jesus - but how this glorious future affects our present reality and our everyday choices.

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8. Ps Hilary Williams explores Paul's call to purity. Thessalonica was known for its licentious culture, but both for then and for now, the apostle is clear - do not be like the world around you. We see that honouring God by holiness over our sex life is of high importance to Him. Thankfully, God also gives us the power we desperately need to walk in holiness.

1 Thessalonians 3:1-12, 4:9-10. Dharsh Williams examines the affection that Paul, Silas and Timothy have for the church of Thessalonica. As followers of Christ, loving others is not optional. Moreover, this is a love that is ever growing - to the point of overflow and sacrifice. This is only possible, because we have a perfect model of love in Jesus, and the empowering of the Holy Spirit.

1 Thessalonians 2:1-12. Andrew Mihaleff continues our "Growing In..." series, where Paul recaps his time in Thessalonica. In what appears to be a defense against slander, the apostle reminds this young church that he not only taught them the gospel, but sacrificially gave of himself and provided an example of godly integrity and consistency. This passage also shows us that our own authenticity plays a crucial role in those around us coming to experience Jesus.
