What do you do when you’re persecuted for being a Christian?
Seventeen years after the resurrection of Jesus, the persecution of Christians became hostile in a city called Thessalonica. As they lost their livelihood and lost their lives, the followers of Jesus naturally started to question if the faith was worth the cost.
To encourage them, the Apostle Paul wrote them a letter to give hope and perspective to their persecution. Today, this letter is known in your Bible as “1 Thessalonians”. More than a historical document, 1 Thessalonians gives perspective to all Christians as they endure any hardships or persecution.
Join St. Mark for the next five weeks and explore 1 Thessalonians, one verse at a time, and discover timeless truths to give you hope today.
