Lesson 27 God Opens Our Hearts in Serving Others

Questions 1 and 2

Greetings friend, so glad you’re here. I have another “good addiction” that I’m excited to share with you.. .
You might remember the family with the wonderful addiction that I mentioned in an earlier lesson. Let’s review:
1 Corinthians 16:14-16 NIV  Do everything in love.  (15)  You know that the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the Lord's people. I urge you, brothers and sisters,  (16)  to submit to such people and to everyone who joins in the work and labors at it.

Question 1. To what were Stephanus and his family addicted?

That word “devoted” in 1 Corinthians 16:15 is the same word translated in other versions as “addicted.” Stephanus was addicted to ministry. He and his family were addicted to serving the Lord’s people.
This is an absolutely wonderful addiction to have as it grows more pleasurable as you do it!

Question 2. How does Paul say we should treat people like Stephanus?
