Pastor Matt Hodge (Discipleship Pastor) - 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10 (Acts 1:8; 17:1-10; 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10; 5:24; Romans 1:15-16; 10:9-14; Hebrews 10:38; 11:6; Matthew 22:36-40; John 13:35; 16:33; 1 Peter 1:3-9 & 22; 1 Timothy 1:12-17)
What does Gospel change look like? In this lesson, we will hear a testimony of God’s grace at work in people's lives! We will learn that the Gospel changes the way we live, and we will see what a life of following Jesus looks like practically.
Finally, we will see how God can use the faithful witness of obedient believers to bring others to faith in Christ. God can use your story to reach others with the Gospel so that they can experience change—Gospel Change!
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!
