Hey Dudes and Daughters of the King! So this week we had an inspiring bible study and a great time in fellowship! There were some new people and familiar faces who joined us last night to worship, study, and reflect on God’s Word.
This week, Stacie and ‘T’ shared devotionals
from 1 Thessalonians Chapter 3. Stacie challenged the ladies to “follow up”
with people we don’t see every day and reach out to friends/colleagues who
might be having a tough time getting through trials in their life.
Similarly, Anthony encouraged the guys to be
“not shaken but stirred” to serve and minister to their brothers, especially
younger guys who might need encouragement in the faith.
Having a loving, genuine concern for another
person lifts up both the encourager and the encouraged; Paul, after hearing
Timothy’s good report, was overjoyed that the Thessalonians’ faith remained
strong, despite the tribulations he suffered in prison. It was important to
Paul that the new church “would not be shaken by these afflictions”, instead
“abound[ing] in love to one another” during the storm.
Challenge Question: Who might be going through
a difficult time in their life and need some brotherly/sisterly love? How can I
show them that I care?
Speaking of brotherly/sisterly love, come out
and show some support for Team Philippines by eating at El Taco Charro, 940 E
Dominguez St Suite P, Carson CA 90746 on Sunday October 28th!
