Scripture References: 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12
From Series: "Between the Times"
We live between the times: between the first coming of Christ and the future coming of Christ. It’s a hard place to be, because what we long for hasn’t been fully realized. But it’s also an exciting place to be, because what we long for has been partially realized. As we experience something of what we long for, we anticipate the coming day, but we also appreciate the present day in light of the coming day. In his two letters to the Thessalonians, the apostle Paul references the future “coming” of Christ more than he does in all his other letters combined. Our study of 1 and 2 Thessalonians therefore will help us live—really live—in the present, between the times, leaning into the future.

Advanced Sermon Catalog
Enter search parameters to narrow the sermon list appearing below. Scroll to the bottom of the page for additional search tips.
Tips
- Enter multiple search parameters to narrow the list to sermons matching all of them. For example, choose
- Book: Psalms
- Speaker: Stedman, Ray
to see sermons by Ray Stedman that also have a specific reference in the Psalms.
- Click on the Clear Filters button to see the whole list again. If you are getting no results, make sure that you don’t have an unintended filter parameter or search term remaining in place.
- Click on a column title to sort the list by that column. Click a second time to reverse the sort order. By default the list is ordered from newest to oldest (reverse chronological).
- The Book filter will not find every sermon that touches on a particular book
- it cannot find sermons where the book name does not appear in the Scripture References column, e.g. filtering on Luke does not find a sermon with references of “Matthew – Revelation”.
- Scripture References in the catalog are not complete for all sermons for various reasons
- If you are exploring the library by Date, note that the date selector has unfortunate limitations:
- Typed in dates must be in the format shown in the sermon list: 20 Jan 2019. Other formats such as 1/20/19 do not work.
- In the calendar browser that pops up, you can click on the month/year at the top to move by larger periods of time. For example, if “JANUARY 2019” is displayed and you click on it you can choose months in 2019, click again and you can navigate through years.
- Typed in dates will sometimes be misinterpreted and replaced: try editing the replacement text into your desired date rather than clearing the field and starting over.
- The Search field only searches the catalog list of sermons displayed on this page. Unfortunately we do not have the capability to search the text of sermons at this time.
