Does what people think about us really matter? Absolutely yes!
In this lesson, we will see how Paul understood that to have a lasting influence on others, we need to be people of character and integrity! We cannot be people who say one thing, and do something else! We need to teach the way of Jesus and live the way of Jesus! As we live the way of Jesus, we will have an influence that makes a difference—a Gospel influence!
Series description:
We believe the Gospel has the power to change lives, but how often do we see this transformational power in the lives of people we know? In this series, we will consider the example of Paul’s Gospel preaching ministry in the ancient city of Thessalonica. As we study 1 Thessalonians, we will see the difference the Gospel makes, and be challenged with practical steps that we can take to become more effective Gospel witnesses! Our world is desperate for real change—Gospel Change!
