Modern America and ancient Thessalonica have a lot in common. The church can easily be compromised by sexual sin. Paul & Silas encourage both of us to bring our sexual formation under the authority of Jesus.

Christianity can be hard at times, especially when you are away from people you love. Paul will inspire us how to show up for our Christian brother’s and sister. From 1 Thess 2 & 3

How do people know our message and our lives are authentic? Paul & Silas map out for us some guidance to make sure our words and witness are consistent. From 1 Thessalonians 2.

As Paul reconnects with the church in Thessalonica, his heart is full of joy. Faith is alive and the fruit of the gospel is growing. Although a young church, they already have a faith worth imitating. Do we have a faith that serves as a model for others?

Jesus in his final moments on earth, with all the authority of heaven, communicated his instructions to his disciples. Those objectives continue today. As stewards of his church, how are we doing with the mission he gave us?

Jesus is questioned about what is most important. We expect him to answer to love God. But Jesus continues the second most important thing is to love your neighbor.. In this message we explore ways you can be a better neighbor.

The disciples wanted to know how someone could become the greatest in the Kingdom. Jesus had a surprising answer that encouraged them to look to the youngest as a model.

It’s easy to get wrapped up in the externals of having our life together. But Jesus isn’t content with appearances. He cares about the condition of our heart and encourages us to take a look at what might need some cleaning.

Right actions are important. But Jesus takes it to a whole other level by commanding us to examine our motives. They matter to Jesus and they should matter to us as well. From Matthew 6.

It is easy to make judgments based on appearances. But Jesus reminds us our assessment can often be wrong. He invites us to a redemptive way of helping others with their struggles only after we’ve considered our own struggles first.
