Fiery trials will come. It is only a matter of when. We know that by now. 

Believers, simply because they surrender to Jesus as Lord, will know persecution in its various forms. While suffering, they must continue to trust God Who is always active and always present. They cannot quit doing the things that have drawn the enemy’s fire (4:12 - 19). 

As the members suffer, the welfare of the congregation is paramount. The need is urgent. And with that urgent need, there is a critical demand for care and a compelling call for personnel to provide that care. Without it, the congregation becomes easy prey and may not endure. 

Join us today as we discuss Congregational Welfare and the leaders who provide for it from 1 Peter 5:1 - 4.
