Episode 10: Death Is Rest, Not Regret | 1 Thessalonians 4:13 — Coach C’s Neighborhood

It’s a beautiful day to be a neighbor.

Today’s Family Wins devotional reflects on 1 Thessalonians 4:13 — “Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.”

Death is a reality every mortal must face. Some view it with horror; others see it as a homecoming. For the Christian, the loss of a loved one in the Lord is only for a time — death is rest, not regret, because reunion is certain. Paul asked it as a taunt aimed straight at the grave: “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Brief life is here our portion, brief and filled with care — but the life that knows no ending, the tearless life, is there.

After you listen, go back and read 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 for yourself — open your devotional to page 692, pull up the app, or grab your free copy at mindwolves.com/tfw. Let God speak to you directly, in your own time, in your own home.

A godly husband isn’t made in a day. Neither is a godly wife, a godly father, or a godly mother. They’re made in moments like this — one verse, one choice, one day at a time.
