Survey of 1 Timothy
What do you do when the ministry becomes discouraging? What do you do about a church situation that frustrates you? The conflicts are too great. The people are petty. The circumstances are too difficult. Do you pack your bags and go find another church? Timothy was an ordinary person struggling with a very difficult situation. Like most of us, he did not find confrontation easy. In this book, Paul tells timothy how to transform a difficult situation into a ministry you can believe in.
We live in a world of skepticism. What do you believe in? Who can you really trust? We want to be a ministry you can believe in. We want to teach truth that you can believe in. We want to be at church you can believe in. And I want to be a pastor you can believe in. In order for us to do that, you need to be the kind of church member that God wants you to be. I suggest that if you really want to become the person God wants you to be you need to give God your heart. That's key to any ministry. Are you ready to give Jesus Christ everything?
