Household of God :: Fight

1 Timothy 6:11-16

By Timothy Robinson

Christianity is a fight. This is not the only word picture for understanding our daily walk with Jesus, but it is one of the pictures given to us in Scripture. Find out in this sermon how the Christian life is (and isn’t) a fight and how you can faithfully fight the good fight.

Household of God :: Desire

1 Timothy 6:3-10

By Robert Krumrey

The household of God is also a hospital for sinners. Our sinful condition includes a whole host of disordered desires that must be dealt with in order to be a healthy household. What are Christians to do? Give in to our desires? Suppress our desires? Turns out it’s neither. Find out in this sermon about how Jesus transforms us even down to our deepest desires.

Household of God :: Slaves

1 Timothy 6:1, 2 By Noah Galloso

How are Christians supposed to relate to those in authority over them and those who are under their authority? Find out in this sermon how the gospel transforms relationships that involved authority and submission.

Household of God :: Honor

1 Timothy 5:17-25

By Chris Schlosser

Leaders in the church, especially elders, are worthy of honor. That honor for some includes getting paid so they can spend concentrated time in preaching and teaching. What happens when elders act in a way that is dishonorable? Find out in this sermon how congregation members should interact with their leadership.

Household of God :: Family

1 Timothy 5:1-16

By Chris Schlosser

It’s often said that church should be like a family, but what does that mean? So far in the book of 1 Timothy we’ve seen the authority structure of a church family and some of the roles and responsibilities within it. Now in chapter 5, we get a clear description of healthy interactions in the church including proper relationships, caring for those in need, and maturing those who are young in the faith. Find out more in this sermon on 1 Timothy chapter 5.

Household of God :: Train

1 Timothy 3:14-4:16

By Robert Krumrey

Last week we heard about how the church is to be the “pillar and buttress” of the truth. A visible demonstration in the world of our truth-filled but metaphysical claims about Jesus. This week’s passage shows us how we can practically fulfill that vision - Not twisting the truth, intentionally training in the truth, and faithfully teaching the truth. Find out more in this sermon from 1 Timothy.

Household of God :: Truth

1 Timothy 3:14-16

By Jacob Fisher

What is truth and how am I supposed to figure out what it is? A big part of the answer to this question is “the church”. Paul writes in 1 Timothy 3 that the “church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth.” Find out in this sermon how THE truth is proclaimed and demonstrated through the day to day operations of every local church on the planet.

Household of God :: Serve

1 Timothy 3:8-13

By Alberto Porras

In last week’s sermon we learned about Elders (also called overseers) - their qualifications and role. This week we look at a second office in the church, the deacon. Find in this sermon (by one of our deacons) what the qualifications and responsibilities are for the deacons of the church.

Household of God :: Aspire

1 Timothy 3:1-7

By Robert Krumrey

After a brief teaching on the patterns of authority in the church (end of 1 Timothy 2), Paul launches into an extensive teaching on the qualifications of two types of leaders in the church - Elders and Deacons. This week we look at the qualifications of Elders.

Household of God :: Correct

1 Timothy 2:8-15

By Robert Krumrey

Paul continues to pass on his wisdom to young pastor Timothy regarding how the household of God should conduct themselves. This section of 1 Timothy is a series of confrontations (first of the men and then of the women) about wrong behaviors in the church followed by corrections for how to remedy each of the issues. The issues range from religious hypocrisy to inappropriate attire in the worship service to proper submission to the pattern of church authority.
