Paul hopes this church will welcome his friends and co-laborers in the gospel.
This is a very practical section. Paul is not always welcome in churches but he wants his younger friends to have.
The gospel message is more important than health or safety.
There are genuine risks that are beyond our control.
Take godly risks when the Holy Spirit gives the green light.
There are always Christ-followers who are suffering for one reason or another. This could be of great encouragement.
Father, give wisdom so I will know when to risk and when not to risk.
