All resources are accessible freely to guests without registration. However, I am constructing numerous opportunities for extra learning opportunities that require a name and password. For instance, online worksheets keep track of progress and notes for those signed into the site, allowing users to return at leisure and find their place without difficulty. I am also creating a messaging service that allows registered students to ask questions and receive answers quickly; that too requires registration.

To avoid abuse of our study environment and place controls that ensure legitimate participation, I am instituting a manual registration process. If you desire to participate more fully in our classroom, simply email me with your email address and desired user name; you will then receive a login password, usually within twelve hours, that will register you and give you the ability to create your own profile password for personalized participation.

1 Thessalonians

Paul, along with Silas and Timothy, founded the church at Thessalonica on his second missionary journey. The Apostle had been drawn to this important Roman port after seeing a vision in which a Macedonian man was calling for help (Acts 16:9). While Paul was in Corinth, Silas and Timothy brought good and bad news about the Macedonian church. Though the church continued to be established, the Thessalonians were also reportedly having difficulties. Gentiles, and especially Jews, were impugning Paul's sincerity, defaming him as a wandering charlatan who had deceived them. The church was also confused about the second coming of Christ. Some members worried about believers who had died before His return. Others considered it unnecessary to continue working, since Christ would return at any time. Still others were sinking back into the immorality of the culture. There was also a crisis in the leadership; many of the rank-and-file apparently were being offended by certain tactless elders. These and other minor difficulties occasioned Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians, which was written from Athens.
