## Resource

In this episode we are in the 1st letter Paul writes to the Thessalonians. Paul had worked hard to establish the local churches in this area. Working with his own hands at times so he could provide for himself and others as he did the work of the Lord. In this letter Paul addresses 2 types of attitudes: either being hard-working or lazy. What does my work in the Kingdom look like? Am I as hard-working as Paul, willing to do whatever it takes to reach souls? Or am I like some of the lazy Thessalonians and relying on others to provide rather than my own two hands? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
