1 Thessalonians
What to Do When You Don't Know What to Do | Grant Troutt
Grant Troutt centers the message on three short verses (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) as a simple, practical roadmap for what to do when you don't know what to do: rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and give thanks in all circumstances. He explains that rejoicing is a deliberate inward trust in God's character (not a fake happiness), illustrates the difference between formational (a dedicated 'mountain') and situational (all-day, 'walkie-talkie') prayer, and urges persistent, bold petitions.
The Truth About Sex - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin teaches from 1 Thessalonians 4 as part of the “Almost True” series, correcting common cultural half-truths about sex. He argues that Scripture doesn’t restrict sex to diminish joy but to protect and enable the best sexual flourishing - holy sex within the lifelong marital covenant.
Preparing For Mentorship - Grant Skeldon
Grant Skeldon teaches on how to intentionally find and receive mentorship/discipleship as a regular spiritual habit. He distinguishes mentorship (scheduled meetings) from discipleship (joining someone's life) and roots the practice in Jesus' Great Commission and Paul’s model of sharing both the gospel and life.
The Truth About Prayer - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin teaches from Luke 11 that prayer is a foundational habit for anyone who wants to grow more like Jesus. He points out that the disciples - who lived with Jesus - asked him to teach them to pray, which shows how central prayer was to Jesus' life and ministry.
