In Paul’s day, the church at Thessalonica had a powerful witness that spread the Gospel to the entire province of Achaia in Macedonia. Even more astonishing, these young believers stood firm and spread the Gospel despite facing intense persecution. Our world is certainly in need of such bold witnesses today. Can you say, “Lord, here am I, send me!” Please open your Bible to First Thessalonians chapter one, verse six, and listen as Pastor Ray Viola completes his study of this chapter.
