JT Men’s Zoom Call Lessons for September 2026

Unsung Heroes of the Bible

These examples illustrate how the Bible celebrates faith, courage, service, and obedience, even among those who are not always widely recognized. Unsung heroes often influence pivotal moments in God’s plan quietly but profoundly.

Sept 1st Acts 4:36-37; Acts 9:26-27; Acts 11:25-30

Barnabas – The Encourager

Barnabas, a companion of the Apostle Paul, is less well-known but acted as a key mediator, encourager, and supporter of early Christian missionaries. He sold property to support the church in Jerusalem and advocated for Paul when others were skeptical of his conversion. His role was vital in strengthening and expanding the early church.

Sept 8th Philemon 1; Colossians 4:9

Onesimus – The Runaway Slave Turned Servant

Onesimus, a servant mentioned in the letters of Paul, transformed from a runaway slave into a trusted Christian brother. Paul's epistle to Philemon highlights his redemption and commitment, illustrating the sometimes silent but significant impact of ordinary people in the early church (Philemon 8-16).

The story of Onesimus is one of unexpected grace. A runaway slave from Colossae, he found himself face-to-face with the Apostle Paul during Paul’s imprisonment. Paul’s subsequent letter to Philemon, Onesimus’s master, is a powerful appeal for reconciliation and brotherly love. The name Onesimus, meaning “useful,” also takes on new significance in light of his conversion and reported bishopric.

Sept 15th  Exodus 2; Exodus 18:7-8; 13-27

Jethro, Moses father-in-law

Beyond family ties, Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, offered invaluable leadership advice. As a Midianite priest, he saw Moses struggling and urged him to delegate. This act lightened Moses’ burden and improved the Israelites’ organization. Jethro also reunited Moses with his wife and sons, and may have offered the first communal sacrifice after the Exodus.

Sept 22nd    2 Kings 5:1-19

Naaman-Commander of the Syrian Army

Naaman seemed to have it all—status, respect, and power. But leprosy doesn’t care about rank. Desperate, he listened to advice from the least expected voice: a servant girl. That choice changed everything. His story reminds us that help sometimes comes from people we’d never think to notice.

Sept 29th   1 Chronicles 4:9-10

Jabez Prayer

A name meaning “he causes pain” marked Jabez’s difficult start. However, his prayer recorded in 1 Chronicles 4:10 demonstrates the impact of a sincere request. God granted Jabez’s plea for blessing and safety, and his brief story continues to inspire, even prompting a best-selling book years later.
