Real conversion

About this episode

Jack Stileman discusses the concept of real conversion to Christianity as exemplified by the Thessalonians in 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10.

Jack Stileman - There are many great things you might become in your life. But nothing – nothing – is better than becoming a Christian. What does that actually look like? In 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10, Paul holds up the Thessalonians as the example of real conversion: turning to God, to serve him, and to wait for his Son, Jesus.
