We see the Apostle Paul model and call us to live with 4 key motivations as followers of Jesus. He speaks about these in 1 Thessalonians chapter 2 and tonight we examine how we’re to imitate these in our here and now moment. We’ll examine some questions that help us check how our motivations might be in alignment or out of it.

5 Practices to Grow in Christ
November 27, 2022 • Pastor Lyle Thompson • 2 Thessalonians 3
As we conclude our series through 1 & 2 Thessalonians, we see Paul reiterating the importance of putting into practice the things he modeled for the Thessalonians during his time with them. Looking at the rhythms established by the early church fathers, we see five practices that one can turn into habits that will help us stand firm and grow in our spiritual formation.
Stand Firm
November 20, 2022 • Pastor Jack Schull • 2 Thessalonians 2:13–17
We live in a culture that allows great freedoms; but there is also growing opposition to faith and tradition of faith and the teachings of Scripture - it will bring rising heartache and pushback. We are to stand firm & hold fast. We’re to be people that love like Christ. People full of conviction and compassion. People who hold to truth and grace.
Do You Love The Truth?
November 13, 2022 • Pastor Lyle Thompson • 2 Thessalonians 2:1–12
As we move into 2 Thessalonians, we see Paul wants to comfort the Thessalonians Christians that, contrary to what has been said in their church, the second coming of Christ has yet to occur. Paul gives more details as to what will happen before Jesus appears again in an effort to bring peace and stability to the church. What will bring us this peace? It’s not having knowledge of the return of Jesus, it’s having a love for the truth of God — so much so that we spend our days seeking to put this truth into action in our lives.
