1 Timothy 1

In today’s episode we’ll being reading Paul’s first letter Timothy, the young man who worked alongside Paul during some of his missionary journeys, serving as his protégé in pastoral ministry. The two are now separated and Timothy is in a season of life where he is shepherding a church. He advises his son in the faith to address those in the church who teach, or who believe, false doctrine, warning especially about those things that are opposed to the Gospel and are speculative, divisive, and fruitless. Paul finds his hope, comfort, and identity in this gospel which frees men from the chains of sin which entangle and condemn. Finally, today’s reading ends with an admonition to fight the good fight of faith.
