The Model Church (1 and 2 Thessalonians)

Description The biblical letters that Paul, Silvanus and Timothy wrote to the church in Thessalonica are a warm encouragement to the believers there. Life was not easy for those early Christians; they were facing difficulties such as persecution and false teaching. But Paul knew that through prayer and eyes fixed on Jesus and his promises, they could stand firm and flourish in their faith. The same is true for God’s people today. These 9 studies on 1 and 2 Thessalonians show how the gospel offers a solid foundation for all seasons in life, and how we can love each other well through them all. They are an insightful pointer to the hope we have now and the relief that is surely coming. This is an ideal guide for individual Bible study or for use in small groups.
