As you think back in history, what have been some of the most powerful speeches ever made and how did they impact the people who heard those speeches or even read them years later? In America many would say President Lincoln's Gettysburg address is one of the most significant and powerful speeches ever made. President Lincoln was not the keynote speaker that day. His brief comments, lasting only two minutes, spoken on the site of one of the costliest battles of the civil war, was a defining moment in American history. https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/gettysburg-address/ These days I'm inviting you to join me as we witness the apostle Paul in another defining moment in history. The year is 50ad and Paul is in the great city of Corinth, Greece. He is dictating a letter and his young apprentice Timothy is his scribe. Timothy and Silas have come to Corinth from Berea and Thessalonica and have given their report to Paul and Paul is responding with this powerful letter we know as 1 Thessalonians in our Bible. Paul is commending the Thessalonian Christians for their response to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in all its power. (Click here to see full text, images and links) Today's Scripture is 1 Thess. 1:4-7.

Pastor Doug Anderson 262.441.8785 “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, with our eyes fixed on Jesus…” (Heb. 12:1,2) Have a comment or question about today’s chapter?
