The Word of God is at work in those who believe.

The text is 1 Thessalonians 2:1-13, with special attention paid to verse 8. Paul "delighted" to share the gospel and his life with the Thessalonians. How could he do that, and how can we learn to delight in our service of others, whoever that may be?

This is a special service of listening to God's word and prayer for refugees around the world. It comes as a response to the Trump Administration's Executive Order on Immigration that was signed on Friday, January 27. It is an attempt to listen to the Bible and not promote a partisan viewpoint.

Here is the link to the video, Hymn to Refugees, that was played during the service. Click here for that video. The video of the story of Ruth and Boaz is not available via podcast.
