"The Real Deal"

This week Pastor Rob is teaching from 1 Thessalonians, chapter 2, verses 1 through 16.The Thessalonians were praised by the apostle Paul as pleasing God and loving the people in their community, in short, they were "The Real Deal".  Let's look at two truths that will help us determine what is Real.  1) Authentic Christian leaders will reflect a genuine love for and commitment to God and the people that they have been called to lead.  2) God's Word transforms the lives of those who welcome it.
