Timothy is a young guy in an old man’s world. It’s easy for him to feel overwhelmed by the challenges, and people are spreading lies and causing division. What can he do? And what difference will it make? This message looks at the help God gives and the direction He points us in when life feels like too much.
1 Timothy 4:6-16
After declaring that the mystery of godliness is Christ, Paul points to the demonic character of those who try to add rules to revelation and turn the path of Christian growth into a list of good things to avoid.
1 Timothy 3:14-4:5
Paul lays out the qualities that should characterize the church overseer (=elder/pastor) and in so doing gives a picture of Christian maturity and the character that all Christians should aim for.
1 Timothy 3:1-7
We grow in the life of faith by trusting and responding to what God has said. When churches talk more about what people say than what God has said, Christians drift into error. This message looks at how to hold onto truth when the world turns away from it.
1 Timothy 1:1-11
Christians today have developed a reputation for loving Jesus but not acting like Him. What are we doing wrong? Too often, the church has painted a picture of the destination but not shown how to get there. This message looks at how Christians become more like Jesus.
