Today’s
scripture: 1 Thessalonians 1:1
Today, as we continue looking at Paul’s epistles, we begin a journey through the book of 1 Thessalonians.
Letter-writing—true pen-to-paper writing—is so out of vogue. And that’s kind of sad. In the day, people would often collect and save letters, and those letters captured histories. Stories of romances. Stories of families. Births. Deaths. It’s truly a lost art.
Where would we be if Paul hadn’t written his letters? We’ve been given so much wisdom, encouragement, affirmation, exhortation, and conviction. Some of my very favorite passages, words that I’ve memorized, come from Paul’s letters.
And as we journey through 1 Thessalonians, we’ll be visiting some of those passages.
I’m really looking forward to reading Paul’s pen-to-paper letter. And I begin by greeting you as Paul did: Grace and to you and peace.
