Description
“So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us” (I Thessalonians 2:8). Pastor David York raised eight children: five girls and three boys. Looking back, he remembers the challenges and rewards of parenting and finds in I Thessalonians chapter 2 a very practical outline for categorizing all those lessons–beginning with the hardest one: expressing your affection for them as your sons and daughters.
