In a world filled with invisible enemies—death, disease, and evil—how are we to face what feels like an unknowable future? What do we do with our anxiety regarding the days ahead? This is the final week of this series, and we have been looking at 1 and 2 Thessalonians, and Paul’s message of comfort and reassurance to those living in uncertain times. These letters discuss the future of Christ’s Second Coming, and what believers should do while awaiting his return. Paul encourages believers to be prepared, to cling to the truth of what they have been taught, and to live responsibly in light of the future. How can we take these words to heart, and face the future without fear?
