Follow up to “Supporting Others in Affliction”

Last weekend, we talked about Supporting Others in Affliction from 1 Thessalonians 3. We continue to work our way through this letter written within 20 years of Jesus ministry, and death, and resurrection.

I shared bonus info in these areas today:

• The 10 Bible chapters I recommend people read and write down their learnings on suffering:
  • Psalm 13, 42
  • Job 1, 2, 42
  • 1 Peter 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
• Additional teaching on the two verses from 1 Peter that I had to leave out last weekend:
  • 1 Peter 2:19-21
  • 1 Peter 3:17-18
• The two practices I do when I’m most stressed:
  • “Write-a-letter-to-God” exercise
  • “The Control Divide” exercise

What Bible passages do you use when thinking about suffering?

What other practices do you use to handle the pressure of afflictions?

Let me know!
