“Strengthen Your Heart”

LIFE:  What is your experience with baby dedication? 

ENGAGE THE MESSAGE:

  1. Read 1 Thessalonians 2:1-8.
  2. What problems result in the town of Thessalonica because of people choosing to follow Jesus? 
  3. How do you personally get stronger physically?
  4. What tests/trials have you gone through that made you stronger spiritually? Share an example. 
  5. Paul sees the Church as his family.  In what ways would Paul feel like a mother towards the readers?  Why would he also feel like a father?
  6. How can you move from being bitter to better?
  7. When you think of God, do you have faith like a child?

MAKE DISCIPLES:   Are there one or two people in the church that know you best?  Do you see a family dynamic with your church family?  Think of practical ways to strengthen relationships and strengthen hearts.
