Letters to the Church: Thessalonica
A cinematic documentary tracing Paul's letter to the Thessalonians — persecution, perseverance, and the blessed hope of Christ's return.

The church at Thessalonica was born in a riot and matured under persecution — yet Paul calls them his glory and joy. This documentary travels to modern Greece, walks the Roman road Paul walked, and opens the letter that taught the early church to wait well.
Scholars, pastors, and archaeologists guide the journey: the agora where Jason's house stood, the inscriptions naming the city's politarchs, and the hope that has outlasted an empire — the return of the King.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout. — 1 Thessalonians 4:16
Part one of the "Letters to the Church" series. Watch, then read the letter again — it will not read the same.
