Suzy HansenGUEST
Turkey was neutral, but it did sympathize with some, you know, Nazi ideas and some fascistic ideas, and so they, they decided to put a lot of the minorities who were very wealthy into labor camps and to take a lot of their money.
Suzy HansenGUEST
Um, and so that was a first episode, and then that led us into the 1955 events, which was actually, it was sparked because there was a, apparently news came from Thessaloniki that Atatürk's house had been bombed.
Suzy HansenGUEST
And so immediately, people took to the streets and started rampaging through the Greek neighborhoods, the Jewish neighborhoods, a lot of the neighborhoods that people are familiar with, Galata, you know, these really famous pl- places in Istanbul, and they absolutely destroyed, um, all of the shops, all of the churches, all of the schools, and really drove a lot of people from their homes.
David MarrHOST
And once that had occurred, there was a lot of vacant property, of course, in Istanbul.
Suzy HansenGUEST

John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
But as Christians, we have to establish the standard.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Now, Paul faces this in Thessalonica, this this group of people, whoever they are, and I'm sure he knows them probably by name but doesn't mention them, who won't work.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And they're not just accepting it for themselves, apparently they're very evangelistic about it.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I mean, they're selling it and they're a problem.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We didn't eat anyone's bread without paying for it, but rather with labor and hardship we kept working night and day.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Remember Acts 18.3 says he was a tent maker, working with leather.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And he had to set up his business even in the few weeks he was in Thessalonica.
John MacArthurSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And he had to work and sell it so that he could get a living from it.
Anya LeonardHOST
Oh, I definitely want to go there.
Anya LeonardHOST
One that I enjoyed that was kind of a little bit less known, I think, I mean, everybody knows about it, but not many people go, is outside of Thessaloniki, going to the tombs of Philip II.
Anya LeonardHOST
And it's just cool because, you know, you just go to these mountains and deep into the earth.
Anya LeonardHOST
I mean, I don't know if they know it's Philip II,
Skip HeitzigHOST
Paul had never met them.
Skip HeitzigHOST
He'd never met the people in Colossae, never met the church in Laodicea or Hierapolis, And yet, he had the same concern for them as for the churches that he did start, like in Ephesus, Thessalonica, etc.
Skip HeitzigHOST
And he uses a word in verse 1.
Skip HeitzigHOST
He says, I have a great conflict.

Meanwhile Theodemir plundered Macedonia and laid siege to Thessalonica.
Pamela NagamiNARRATOR
Peace was then made with Constantinople, the Goths being allowed to settle in six towns of Macedonia and the country around them.
Pamela NagamiNARRATOR
Such an arrangement could not last long.
Brandon PotvinGUEST
I'm not flattening that out to say that we treat everybody the same.
Brandon PotvinGUEST
But in the passage I quote there, Paul refers to himself as a father and a mother to the church in Thessalonica.
Brandon PotvinGUEST
And the idea is that he cared for them.
Brandon PotvinGUEST
He loved them as a parent would.

An example of the efforts Iowa's public universities are taking to improve international relations and student pipelines is a new Iowa state agreement with the American Farm School University of Science and Technology in Thessalonica, Greece to offer ISU degree programs through a newly established university legal entity authorized under Greek law in 2024.
KathleenNARRATOR
The partnership builds on more than 30 years of collaboration between ISU and the American Farm School.

Markus FjørtoftHOST
Two squads, first squad across the first two games and a second squad across the second pair of games as well.
Markus FjørtoftHOST
And just some ending thoughts before we eagerly await this first international stretch for you in Klopp.
Todd WagnerHOST
And I think, but here's Acts 17, 11.
Todd WagnerHOST
So it says in these, talking about the church in Berea, these were more noble-minded than those that were in Thessalonica.
Todd WagnerHOST
Okay, for they examined the scriptures when they heard Paul teach to see if these things were so.
Todd WagnerHOST
And so that's really what we're doing.
