Living Hope - week 3 - Receive the Word

Living Hope - week 3 - Receive the Word

Join us Sundays this Fall 2022 as we walk through a powerful couple books of the Bible that the Apostle Paul wrote to a church he planted in Thessaloniki. In these works, he inspires a people that are living in uncertainty to keep living by a dynamic faith in Christ, and to persevere with hope -- even as they were facing opposition and pressure from a culture that didn't believe or so much care for their beliefs. Followers of Jesus Christ should live with one foot in this world and the other in the world to come. We should be fully engaged with this life AND we should also live with an awareness of eternity. Having this double perspective gives us wisdom for our 'here and now'. It shapes our priorities, impacts our schedules, and influences our dreams and decisions. It fuels our hearts for the Gospel and for people around us to know and experience Jesus.
