1 Thessalonians square

Prepare your heart for our Sunday Morning Gathering by looking through these suggestions that will assist you in making the most of our time together.

You will find tangible suggestions for putting scripture to action in your personal life and in our corporate body, links to the songs we will sing, and lyrics for you to prepare for our corporate singing.

Please see the Preparing for the Sermon post for suggestions in thinking more critically through the passage, meditating more intently on the text, and prayerfully seeking wisdom to deepen your understanding of the passage to be preached this Sunday.

Intentionally Act

  • Read 1 Thess 1:6-10 again.
  • Consider who is imitable in your life. How are you gleaning from the example you set? How could you do this more?
  • How could you be a better example? Who might be seeking to follow your example?
  • Think thoroughly on the return of Christ. Be thankful for his return and the rescue that he offers from the wrath to come.
  • Pray that the practice of imitation would permeate the church to the glory of God and the good of his people.
  • Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
  • Pray for those leading our corporate gathering this week and for the Holy Spirit’s work as the Word of God is further explained and applied: Colten Honigman: music; Rob Stouffer: Elders' prayer & scripture reading; Bret Capranica: teaching.
