Looking at the influence a godly mother and grandmother had on a young man named Timothy. In 2 Timothy 1:5 we learn that he came to faith through his grandmother, Lois, and his mother, Eunice. It was years of godly influence by Timothy’s grandmother and mother that built the foundation for Paul’s instruction and ministry afterwards.
In 2 Timothy 3:14-17, we learn that the genuine faith of these women was combined with teaching Timothy from the Scriptures at a very early age. Their example and the results in Timothy’s life show us that through faith in God and by honoring His Word, godly mothers have great influence as they train their children.
