Smyrna: Suffer Well
In part 3 of our series "Awaken: being a faithful church in an unfaithful world," we look at the second of 7 letters Jesus wrote to churches in Revelation. This is to the church in Smyrna where we see the importance of suffering well.
Scripture References: Revelation 2:8-11
From Series: "Awaken: being a faithful church in an unfaithful world"
As we look at all the craziness going on in our world today, it can be overwhelming and demoralizing. How should we, as followers of Jesus live in these times? What should be the focus and work of the church? In looking at letters written to 7 Churches in Revelation, we find God's heart for the church living in difficult times. In these letters we discover what God desires for the church to be, do and put away so it can be faithful in an unfaithful world. It's time for the church to awaken.
