“Just as in the ancient world, we live in the in-between where myriad religions and belief systems surround us and we live according to powers and law that we do not create. The world wants us to choose yet Paul continually seems to reject this dualistic way of thinking, while also not wholesale buying into the ways of the world. How to find that balance? Jesus, the only mediator between God and humanity.”

Rev. Bryant Manning preaches on 1 Timothy 2:1-7 at the contemporary SUN service at Trinity United Methodist Church in Tallahassee, FL on 9/18/22.
