The Greatest | Church | 2 Thessalonians 1:1-5
February 19, 2011
Milan Turner describes the church at Thessalonica as an example of growing faith, love, patience and endurance. He urges believers to build a daily relationship with Jesus through Scripture and the Holy Spirit, letting God transform them rather than waiting to become worthy. A healthy church loves fellow believers and people who do not yet know Christ, serves actively while awaiting his return and pursues peace instead of strife. Milan encourages listeners to trust Jesus through suffering, persevere beyond initial enthusiasm and disciple others through personal example. Every workplace and relationship can become an opportunity to share the gospel and make Christ known.
