Faithful Pastors, Part 1
15/04/2018In this passage, Paul is going to instruct Titus to finish what he left undone, namely appointing elders in every town. Then Paul will go on to help Titus understand who is qualified to serve as an elder, focusing primarily on character, and...

Serving in Light of Eternity
08/04/2018This week we continued our Pastoral Epistles series with the last book in the series, Titus. Paul sees himself as God’s servant and the servant of the church, so he is determined to spend his life serving both God and his people. We struggle to live...

God Stands With Us
25/03/2018We read Paul's final words to Timothy (and likely his final written words), where he begs him to come to him soon. Paul knows he doesn't have much time left, he's lonely, and he's cold - but he wants to continue his ministry from...
-
The Supremacy of Christ in All Things
18/03/2018In the face of false teaching that continually assaults the Church, Paul reminds us of whom our Justification rests upon. While the Judaizers would attempt to add to Christ's perfect work upon the Cross, Paul encourages the Church at Philippi to...

The Reward of Faithfulness
11/03/2018Paul is wrapping up his final letter to Timothy - in fact, his final letter that we know of - and wants to impress upon him the necessity of a faithful life and ministry. As Christians, our motivation for proclaiming the Gospel is not only the great...

God's Word: Our Firm Foundation
04/03/2018In this passage, Paul will call Timothy to live a very different life than the false teachers who opposed the truth and created problems for people who wanted to live faithfully. Following Jesus in a broken world is very hard. For us to do it, we...

The Danger of Misplaced Love
25/02/2018We were created to love God and others, but our sinful nature leads us to love ourselves more than God or our neighbor. Moreover, it sets us against what God has revealed to be true. We learned that misplaced love results in opposition to the truth.

God's Approved Workers
18/02/2018Paul will warn Timothy about those who argue over words and teach error, rather than rightly handling the Word of truth. Our desire is to faithfully serve God and others. We do that when we refuse to participate in unprofitable debate, and instead...
-
Remembering God's Promises
11/02/2018Paul knew it would be hard for Timothy to continue the work of discipleship, especially since he was unlikely to see him again. He knew he would need something firm to stand on - and nothing is firmer than the promises of God. Similarly, we need...
-
Faithful Discipleship
04/02/2018People tend to think starting a new business is either just dumb luck - you were in the right place at the right time - or it's only the result of hard work. The truth is it requires massive quantities of both. In the same way, Christian...
-
Suffering Without Shame
28/01/2018Paul was unjustly arrested and awaiting execution. He was suffering, and the only thing worse than suffering is suffering in a shameful way. And being arrested and thrown into jail was and is a shameful experience. But Paul wasn't ashamed, and...

Fan Your Gifts into Flame
21/01/2018This Sunday we began our study of 2 Timothy. We introduced the book and then talked about how God intends us to use our spiritual gifts in the church. We learned that for the glory of God and the good of the church, we must fan our spiritual gifts...

How to be a Son of God
14/01/2018The only avenue to true sonship is the one that the prodigal takes: repentance and faith. If we rely upon our own righteousness, we cut ourselves off from the family of God.

The Righteous Reign of King Jesus
17/12/2017We all long for answers and solutions to our deepest problems. The sad reality is that we consistently look to human government - politicians, political parties, and policies - to solve the problems that cannot be solved in those ways. We cannot...

Store Up Treasure in Heaven
10/12/2017This week we'll be covering 1 Timothy 6:17-21 in a sermon called, "Store Up Treasure in Heaven." It is our final sermon in 1 Timothy before we turn our attention to Christmas for the next two weeks. At the end of the letter, Paul...

Faith in Action
03/12/2017Last week, Beau preached on the previous 10 verses where Paul called out the false teachers, who loved quarreling and monetary gain. We learned how true teaching leads to godly contentment. This week, we'll be reminded that Christianity is not...

True Teaching Leads to True Contentment
26/11/2017This week we learned that sound teaching from Scripture that leads to godliness and contentment is in stark contrast to false teaching for sordid gain that leads to ruin and destruction.
