Monday is for Discussion

Early ChurchI am beginning to work on the next book I will take up for exposition at Trinity Church. Here’s the introductory outline for the first message in the series from 1 Thessalonians.

1:1-2          His Coming Creates a Family

  1. A Cross-created   family works together as a team. (v. 1-3)
  2. A Cross-created   family rejoices and gives thanks for all its members. (v. 2a)
  3. A Cross-created   family prays for one another regularly (v. 2b)

Suggestion:  Read the Epistles, all of them, not just Paul with this question in mind;

What does this book tell me about how the cross of Christ shaped the lifestyle of the early church?
