11/5/2023: Church is Like That

This Sunday, we begin another short mini series:

FALL SERMON SERIES: Church is Like That: Exploring Our Witness Through 1 Thessalonians

Using one of Paul’s epistles to the church at Thessalonica (a Biblical book we seldom hear from), we will consider what our witness can be to the world. What are we like in their eyes? What are we like in God’s eyes? Are we communicating what we intend to say about what Jesus means to us? Join us in this ongoing journey of inner and outer transformation.

Because this Sunday is also All Saints Sunday, we will focus on 1 Thessalonians chapter 4 , where Paul reassures the early persecuted church about an unshakable assurance of life in Jesus. All Saints is a good day for us to reflect on areas of life where we have felt grief and loss; to remember all of those who have gone on before us, but to also do as Paul says and grieve with hope! What does that look like?
