Pastor Michael Wilburn discusses practical instructions from 1 Thessalonians 5:12–18 on living in community and reflecting Christ's love.
In 1 Thessalonians 5:12–18, Paul gives the church practical instructions for how to live in community: honor those who lead, care for people according to their needs, choose grace over revenge, and stay connected to God through rejoicing, prayer, and gratitude. This message challenges us to reflect Christ in the way we treat others—with patience, purpose, forgiveness, and grace. Welcome to our podcast of Merge.Church in Van Buren, Arkansas, led by Pastor Jacob Howell. We desire to help everyone, everywhere discover new life in Christ by creating a warm and welcoming family home where you can feel the love and forgiveness that Jesus offers to all.
