Growing One Another
1 Thessalonians 2:1-20
How do we help others grow spiritually?
We love others sacrificially
We love genuinely
We give ourselves (this means life-on-life)
We make their good our ultimate goal
We give one another God’s Word
We talk about Jesus (the Gospel) …a lot
We teach how to live for Jesus in everyday life
We understand that God transforms people through His Word
Where can I start?
Commit to deep friendships in the church and with non-Christians
Lovingly serve these people
Share a struggle in your life and ask how you can pray for them
Be intentional together: plan times when you will talk about how God is speaking to you through His Word
Living Lives of Gratitude
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
- Be joyful continuously.
- Be prayerful unceasingly.
- Be thankful completely.
