For the Christian, we have a war we fight every day - a spiritual war. Today we begin a series in Ephesians six, centered around spiritual warfare. Satan is a crafty foe, but God supplies everything we need for a successful battle.

What would life be without friends? Not too exciting to think about, is it? Paul had some people in his life who meant a great deal to him, and as we close the epistle of Second Timothy, Paul takes time to mention them.

Today we'll observe some of the apostle Paul's final recorded words in scripture. Paul certainly had an ability to save some of his best words for the end of his epistles, and Second Timothy is no exception.

Many people today are running the wrong way spiritually. And the result is much more costly than landing at the wrong airport. Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley will provide guidance from Second Timothy chapter four, to not only run in the right direction but to also finish well.

Today pastor Lloyd Pulley continues his series through Second Timothy. As we near the end of this series, Paul ends this great letter with some powerful and poigniant words for his protege, Timothy, to run the race of life and win.

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley returns to his study of Second Timothy and attracts our attention to chapter four where we see the priority of the Word of God.

Many churches today are gradually departing from the teaching of the Word and integrating other things that they believe will be more appealing to the people. And then there are actually some churches that never even crack open a Bible or perhaps give mention of it on rare occasion. Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley opens the fourth chapter of Second Timothy and highlights for us Paul's charge to Timothy and us... "Preach The Word!"

Today, Pastor Lloyd will encourage us to be students of scripture, realizing that the words contained in the Bible are not from men, but from Almighty God. There are an increasing number of churches in America that no longer even bother to use the bible as a basis fore what they believe, and that's sad. It's also foolish. The wonderful word of God is transformational for anyone who reads it.

So, what is the bible? Is it a book of fairy tales, or is it the inspired Word of God? See what you think as you join us for this edition of Bridging the Gap, as pastor Lloyd Pulley revisits the book of Second Timothy. Today we are going to gain a greater appreciation for the Bible as a whole, realizing that it is authored by Almighty God, and it's His message to you and me

In the middle of Second Timothy chapter three, we read of the apostle Paul's testimony. His life served as a great example for others to follow. Wouldn't it be wonderful if our lives were able to do the same? To point back to the life you've lived and encourage others to follow Christ by following in our footsteps.
