Sunday Gathering - August 9th

 

Because the church’s building is still in a level 3 evacuation zone, we will not be gathering there on Sunday morning. Instead, we will gather for Sunday worship at Faith Bible Church at 1:00 pm.

 

Address: 440 W Cora Ave, Spokane, WA 99205

On August 1st, our Spokane community suffered a nearly incomprehensible disaster as fires tore through our city — including the neighborhood we love and call home, where our church building is also located.

 

To date, 6 families have suffered a complete loss of their home, property, and possessions, and nearly half of our roughly 400-member congregation has been displaced, living in temporary housing due to necessary evacuations — with friends, relatives, in hotels, or other accommodations.

 

Many people and churches have asked how they can specifically help, and we have set up a Fire Relief Fund for our church.

 

These resources will be used to care for the immediate, mid-term, and long-term needs of ITC members, and as the Lord gives opportunity, for the good and upbuilding of others in our area.

 

Although there is much tragedy, we grieve with great hope because of the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord.

 

If you or your church desire to help and serve our church and those we're connected to, please direct your giving to the Indian Trail Church – Fire Relief Fund.

Evidence of Election

January 30, 2022 Speaker: Kyle Schwahn Series: Thessalonians

Passage: 1 Thessalonians 1:4–9

SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION:

- What was Paul, the author of the letters to the Thessalonian church, claiming to know in 1 Thessalonians 1:4? Read Ephesians 1:3-6. How do you think these verses in Ephesians relate to what Paul is saying in 1 Thessalonians 1:4?

- Discuss the Of Election section of the Indian Trail Church Confession of Faith. What about this section makes sense to you in light of 1 Thessalonians 1:4-9? What about it raises questions?

- Considering what Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 1:5, what would the life of someone who has been chosen by God look like? Can the evidence of the gospel in someone's life be only a verbal confession?

- Why does Paul refer to himself and others in the Lord in 1 Thessalonians 1:6? What did Paul and others chosen by God experience from the world for their faith in Christ? (read John 15:18-20) Do you see evidence of this in your own life? Is your faith going forward (1 Thessalonians 1:8) like Paul praised the Thessalonians for?
