This Sunday, as we continue in our new series, Communion with the Living God, we will look at the prayer that the Apostle Paul prays for the Thessalonian believers, in 1 Thessalonians 3:11-13.  The message is entitled, "A Heart For God's People."

This is a passage where Paul just puts his heart right out there.  He loves these people so much.  Where did that love come from?  What does he pray for them?  What does that say about how we should pray for our church?  

In preparation for Sunday, let me encourage you to read Acts 16 and 17.  This gives us the “backstory” of how Paul came to Thessalonica, and why he had to leave so quickly.  Then read 1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:13. I’m excited about digging into all this with you this Sunday.  I’ll see you then…with a Bible in my hand. 

By His Grace, For His Glory, To The Nations,
