Paul described how he shepherded the new believers in Thessalonica, saying,
“We proved to be gentle among you, as a nursing mother tenderly cares for her own children. Having so fond an affection for you, we were well-pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God but also our own lives, because you had become very dear to us.”
– 1 Thessalonians 2:7–8
