This second message from 1 Timothy continues Paul's confrontation of false teachers. He encourages a thoroughly Christian persepective and use of the Law while magnifying the glorious Gospel.

Adam begins a series in the pastoral epistles, three letters written to young pastors that are full of application for our church. In his opening, Paul presents the high priority of defending the flock from error and guarding the truth revealed in God's Word. In verses 1-7, Paul exposes the content of false teaching and the motives of false teachers, both of which should cause the young elder Timothy great concern.

Adam presents an overview of the entire book of Ruth, a story of God's providence in providing for His people. He calls us to trust the God who is just as sovereign today as He was for Ruth and who continually makes all things work together for His people's good.

David preaches from the classic chapter on love, 1 Corinthians 13, as the necessary foundation for our church. Love should be the context we use our gifts in, and the standard is the biblical love Paul describes so eloquently throughout the chapter.

Adam presents the need to examine spiritual maturity closely. The church must be able to speak the truth in love and build itself up if it is ever to mature as a body.

Adam preaches the 3rd message in a foundational series studying God's plan to begin, grow, and establish the Church. In this message, he proclaims God's plan for leadership in the church.

Adam preaches Acts 2:42-47, the beginning of the church at Pentacost. The powerful presence of the Spirit marks the first Christians and provides a powerful benchmark for every church to observe and pursue.

Adam preaches Matt. 16:13-20, the very first mention of the Church in the New Testament and from Jesus. The person of Christ rightly grasped, as Peter did and evidenced in his magnificent confession, stands as the unshakeable support of the church.
