Today we learn from Paul about the importance of elders within the church. Joint us as we discuss their special role and impact on the church.

Chapter 5 begins with Paul instructing Timothy on how to minister in the church, he will single out two specific groups, that he feels deserves special attention, the elderly and widows.

Judges 17-18 is about a man named Micah who sets up his own little shrine, makes idols, and hires a personal priest, showing how worshiping something we create is just idolatry. The story shows how easily people can drift away from God when they start doing things their own way instead of following His commands. Then suffer the consequences.

Today we learn from Paul what we are to teach and why. The reason we must teach the message of Jesus accurately is because its holds the key to salvation for us and the world.

If you ever try to bake without knowing the recipe it can end in disaster. We must carefully read the plan. This passage shines a light on the fact that Christ followers flourish when they follow God’s plan for success and are ultimately pulled away from destruction.

Today we learn that no one is too far gone to be saved by God. Samson is a great example of what it means to be lost and find your way back.

Paul now turns his attention to the qualities and godly character of leaders and servants in our homes and church.

In Judges 15, Samson takes matters into his own hands, seeking revenge after being wronged, which leads to a cycle of violence and destruction. This passage challenges us to trust in God’s plans, knowing that His way is always better than our own, by surrendering to His holy plan to bring about true justice and peace.

Are you broken, tired, and weary? Do you long for peace and hope? To those who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ, He has given rest. Rest in Jesus comes from a loving relationship with Him, and you can have that today. Don’t wait!
