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.

True Conversion

February 20, 2022 Speaker: Kyle Schwahn Series: Thessalonians

Passage: 1 Thessalonians 1:9–10

SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION

- In 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10, we get a picture of what true conversion - what becoming a true follower of Christ - looks like. How can "turning" be a description of becoming a follower of Jesus? (hint: Acts 3:18-19) What did the believers in the church in Thessalonica turn from?

- What is idolatry? Where does it come from? What are some kinds of things that can be idols in our lives today? If we find we are struggling with idols in our lives - or we see those aournd us struggling with them - what can we do about it?

- If we are to turn away from idols, what are we turning to? Read Romans 6:12-13 and Romans 6:17-18. How do these verses help us think about what it means to truly follow Jesus?

- In 1 Thessalonians 1:10, what does it mean to wait for God's Son? Some verses to read and discuss: Romans 8:23; Hebrews 9:27-28; 2 Timothy 4:8; Titus 2:11-14; 2 Peter 3:11-13.
