Pleasing God, Making Disciples of Jesus Christ
Pleasing God, Making Disciples of Jesus Christ
New Testament

Simplify. Focus. Stay on track. Keep a single gaze. Don’t make it complex. Those are all exhortations to the single goal we should strive for each day of the Christian life.
This Lord’s Day evening, we continue our sermon series “Living the Life of Love”. In an age of compromise and apathy, our great need is for God to visit us with a spiritual awakening to show us Himself and His love. As we see and experience His love, we are moved to obey the Greatest Commandment – love God will all our being.
In this most personal of letters from the Apostle Paul, he bears his heart of love to these Thessalonians. In doing so, he shows one of the highest displays of love for believers – praying. Lord willing, we will look at this prayer of the Apostle Paul for the Thessalonian believers and learn lessons about our God’s Person, His workings in the lives of His children, and the example of the Apostle Paul.
