God does give us things we can’t handle ourselves but He rescued us.  Through Him we can trust that He solves our sin problem and helps us overcome it day by day.  This week we look at 1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:13 to learn how we can come together to support each other as we face the temptations and trials of this life.

1 Thessalonians 2:13-20

Like a seed needs water to grow, we need God’s Word to permeate our hearts and bring life to our souls as we face persecution together with other believers.  This week we look at what Paul writes in the second half of 1 Thessalonians, chapter 2 about soaking up God’s Word, believing the Bible is true and suffering for the Lord.

1 Peter 4:7 – 5:14

From a worldly perspective suffering is seen as a negative thing but we as believers can rest assured that suffering is a blessing from God used to strengthen our faith in Him.  As we wrap up our study on 1 Peter, we see that we can rely on the hope that we have in Christ and our fellowship with other believers to carry us through trials and to encourage us as we look forward to Christ’s return.
