In this episode, we explore the background and composition of 2 Thessalonians, the Apostle Paul’s second letter to the believers in Thessalonica. We discuss its authorship, examining internal and external evidence for Pauline origin; its place and date of composition, most likely written from Corinth around A.D. 50–52, shortly after 1 Thessalonians; and its purpose, offering correction, encouragement, and clarification about the return of Christ.

Listeners will discover how this short but powerful epistle strengthens faith, urges steadfastness under persecution, and refines early Christian understanding of eschatology. Whether you’re a student of Scripture or a curious seeker, this episode uncovers the historical, theological, and pastoral dimensions of 2 Thessalonians.
