Pastor Susan Cepin continues the Books of the Bible series with an insightful exploration of 2 Thessalonians. With great care, she outlines how Paul addresses three significant troubles the Thessalonian believers are facing. She shows how Paul not only recognizes these issues but also earnestly prays for each one. In his letters, he continually points them to Christ's ultimate deliverance. Susan's thorough examination reveals the depth of Paul's pastoral concern and the profound hope he offers. She explains how Paul's words provide comfort and direction, urging the Thessalonians to remain steadfast in their faith. By highlighting these prayers and promises, Susan emphasizes the relevance of Paul's message for us today. Her teaching encourages believers to trust in Christ's deliverance, no matter the challenges they face. Each episode of this series builds on the last, offering deeper understanding and practical insights into living out the Christian faith.
Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other Village leaders open the Scriptures as the witness to God’s kingdom breaking into our lives. Scripture gives us more than abstract ideas. It is the Word of God, given to form us, confront us, comfort us, and teach us how to follow Jesus.
Each episode invites us to listen and respond. We are learning to understand the Bible more faithfully; we are also learning how to live as God’s renewed people.
Week by week, our pastors and leaders talk about the practices of Christian discipleship, including prayer, fasting, generosity, Scripture memory, worship, and life together. These practices belong to a whole life formed around Jesus.
The podcast also speaks to ordinary places where faith is lived; our relationships, finances, habits, struggles, joys, and decisions. The gospel speaks to what we believe. It also teaches us how to live in the present age as people who belong to the kingdom of God.
