2 Thessalonians 3 Reading 05.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads 2 Thessalonians 3. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

2 Thessalonians 3 Discussion 05.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail A church can survive a lot, but it starts to crack when people stop pulling their weight and start pulling everyone else into their chaos. We open 2 Thessalonians 3 and follow Paul’s flow from prayer, to a hard warning about idleness, to a closing benediction that’s full of peace and grace. Along the way, we slow down and do a simple outline, then move through observation, interpr...

2 Thessalonians 2 Reading 04.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads 2 Thessalonians 2. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

2 Thessalonians 2 Discussion 04.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Rumors about the end times are not new, and 2 Thessalonians 2 is Paul’s direct answer to Christians who feel rattled. We sit down with 2 Thessalonians chapter 2 and ask the question everyone eventually runs into: if Jesus can return at any moment, what do we do with Paul’s claim that a rebellion must come first and the man of lawlessness must be revealed? The conversation turns in...

2 Thessalonians 1 Reading 03.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads 2 Thessalonians 1. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

2 Thessalonians 1 Discussion 03.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Hell is not a topic most people want to touch, but 2 Thessalonians 1 doesn’t flinch and neither do we. Paul praises a pressured church for growing in faith and love, then he pivots to the sobering reality of final judgment “away from the presence of the Lord.” We slow down and read the text carefully, because a clear Bible study should shape how we think, how we suffer, and how we...

1 Thessalonians 5 Reading 02.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads 1 Thessalonians 5. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

1 Thessalonians 5 Discussion 02.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail The phrase “like a thief in the night” gets quoted a lot, but it rarely gets handled with the mix of clarity, disagreement, and practicality it deserves. We open 1 Thessalonians 5 by asking what Paul means by the Day of the Lord and how Christians should think about readiness without living in fear. Along the way, we compare our end-times frameworks, including premillennial pre-tr...

1 Thessalonians 4 Reading 01.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads 1 Thessalonians 4. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

1 Thessalonians 4 Discussion 01.06.2026

Send us Fan Mail God’s will is not a scavenger hunt. Paul says it plainly in 1 Thessalonians 4: your sanctification. That lands in a place most of us would rather keep vague, especially when it touches sexual immorality, self-control, and the call to honor God with our bodies. We slow down and take the passage seriously, including the warning that brushing this off is not merely disagreeing with a...

1 Thessalonians 3 Reading 29.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads 1 Thessalonians 3. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

1 Thessalonians 3 Discussion 29.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Comfort can be confusing. If following Jesus is supposed to be “good news,” why does Paul tell believers they are destined for affliction? We dig into 1 Thessalonians 3 and talk honestly about what Christian suffering looks like in real life, including the uncomfortable question: if I never face pushback, am I hiding my faith or just living in a culture shaped by the gospel? Eithe...

1 Thessalonians 2 Reading 28.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads 1 Thessalonians 2. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

1 Thessalonians 2 Discussion 28.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail If you’ve ever wondered what faithful Christian leadership actually looks like when nobody is clapping, 1 Thessalonians 2 is brutally clarifying. We open the chapter, map its structure, and then sit with Paul’s claims about integrity: no flattery, no greed, no chasing popularity, just a steady commitment to preach the gospel even after being treated shamefully. That tension feels...

1 Thessalonians 1 Reading 27.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads 1 Thessalonians 1. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

1 Thessalonians 1 Discussion 27.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Ten verses can mess with you in the best way. We sit down with 1 Thessalonians 1 and find a surprising amount of depth packed into a short chapter: gratitude, identity, suffering, evangelism, repentance, and the return of Jesus. We start by outlining Paul’s flow of thought, then slow down to observe the phrases that carry the most weight like “brothers loved by God,” “not only in...

Colossians 4 Reading 26.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Colossians 4. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Colossians 4 Discussion 26.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Some Bible chapters feel like a quick sign-off, but Colossians 4 is loaded with real-life guidance for how Christians work, speak, and stay steady. We sit down with Colossians chapter four and outline the flow, then slow down to observe the details that most people skim past. What starts as a few short commands turns into a practical map for Christian living: prayer that stays ale...

Colossians 3 Reading 25.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Colossians 3. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Colossians 3 Discussion 25.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Your day is already being discipled by something. The question is whether it is discipled by “things above” or by whatever is loudest on earth. We open Colossians 3 and trace how Paul connects attention, identity, and action, because what we set our minds on quietly determines how we speak, how we react, and how we treat the people closest to us.  We talk through the sharp command...

Colossians 2 Reading 22.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads Colossians 2. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Colossians 2 Discussion 22.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Trying harder can feel holy right up until it crushes you. Today we open Colossians 2 and talk candidly about the pressure many Christians carry after coming to faith: the quiet belief that you’re saved by grace but maintained by grind. We trace Paul’s roadmap through the chapter and camp out on a line that refuses to let spiritual life become a treadmill: “As you received Christ...

Colossians 1 Reading 21.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Colossians 1. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Colossians 1 Discussion 21.05.2026

Send us Fan Mail If you’ve ever read Colossians 1 and wondered, “What does this actually mean for my Monday,” we’re right there with you. We open by mapping the chapter’s flow, then slow down and pay attention to Paul’s purpose: seeing people become mature in Christ. That single aim gives Christian leadership a clear target, whether we’re pastors, parents, or simply believers trying to care well f...
