Ancient Wisdom for Modern Church Shoppers (1 Thessalonians 2:1-16)

  • Summary

  • Welcome to Creekside Community Church! In today’s message, we explore 1 Thessalonians 2:1-16, where Paul defends his ministry and provides a model for faithful church leadership and Christian living. Guiding Questions: - How do you recognize a healthy church and a faithful pastor? - How do you evaluate your own faithfulness as a follower of Jesus? - What does it mean to stand firm in faith—even when it costs you? Summary:Paul, Silas, and Timothy set the example of a ministry that was built on integrity, sincerity, and sacrifice. They preached not for personal gain, but to please God, sharing their lives with those they ministered to. The Thessalonians responded by receiving the gospel not as human words, but as God’s truth, remaining faithful despite persecution. This passage challenges us to examine: 1. What we expect from spiritual leaders—Do they serve with integrity and gospel-centered love? 2. How we receive God’s Word—Do we submit to it as truth or only accept what is comfortable? 3. How we endure in faith—Do we remain faithful even when it costs us something? For more info about our church community, or to connect with us, go to www.creekside.cc
