Oct 19, 2025How to Behave at HomeSeries: 1 TimothyIn the three short verses at the end of 1 Timothy 3, Paul mentions his purpose in writing the letter – that we will know how to live in God’s church. He wants us to understand how we are to behave in the household of God.There are 3 points we can identify in these 3 verses. The first one could almost escape our notice, but is worth mentioning. Paul gives us the example of 1) Seeking God’s Direction in All You Decide to Do. From there he goes on to encourage all in the church to 2) Live a Life that Pleases the Lord. The final verse of the chapter is a short hymn of sorts that spells out basic truths about Christ. Here the apostle encourages believers to 3) Ground Yourself in the Truth of the Gospel.Christians should be known by their Godly behavior and Biblical beliefs about Christ.1 Timothy 3:14-16Oct. 19, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Oct 12, 2025Being a Part of Something That Matters – Membership in the ChurchSeries: (All)We typically have reasons for going places, wherever it is we go: You go to school to get an education so you can make a living. You go to work to make money so you can pay the bills. You go to the gym for exercise and better health. You go to the grocery store to buy food. Most of us could likely give a reason that we choose to attend church as well. We might say that going to church is the most spiritually fulfilling, inspiring thing we do all week.Let me change it up a bit, though. What if I was to ask, “What is the reason you should become a member of a church?” That’s different, isn’t it? It’s one thing to attend a church. But, we’d probably say it’s a different level of commitment entirely to become a member of a church.It’s good to occasionally look into some of these basic sorts of topics. There are 3 things we’re going to cover this morning: 1) What does it mean to be a member of The Church? 2) A few objections to membership; and 3) What is the value of being a member of a local church?The Christian life involves more than just believing – it also includes belonging! We grow in Christ by being in relationship to other Christians.Selected ScriptureOct. 12, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

- Sep 28, 2025A Schematic for Servant-Leadership
Sep 28, 2025A Schematic for Servant-LeadershipSeries: 1 TimothyIn 1 Timothy 3:8-13, Paul describes the sort of character deacons are to possess, rather than focusing on the functions they were to perform. There are many similarities between the expected character of an overseer and that of a deacon, leading us to understand that this was not a lesser leadership position in any way. Deacons just had a different focus or set of responsibilities.There are 5 things which deacons should do, according to the requirements Paul lists in this passage: 1) A Deacon Should Show Consistent Self-Control; 2) A Deacon Should Hold Solid Christian Convictions; 3) A Deacon Should Have a History of Demonstrating a Heart for Service; 4) A Deacon Should Faithfully Lead His Family; and 5) A Deacon Should Serve Confidently, Affirmed by Christ and His Church.Spiritual maturity & obedience are essential parts of a servant’s heart.1 Timothy 3:1-7Sept. 28, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Sep 21, 2025What They Need to LeadSeries: 1 TimothyGood leadership in the church is important. In his letter to timothy, the Apostle Paul gives some guidelines for the type of person to seek out when looking for leaders in the church.In 1 Timothy 3:1-7, Paul gives a list of 15 different things which should be observable in those who would serve the church as overseers. The one overarching quality necessary for these Christian leaders is living a life that is above reproach. The other 14 qualifications break down into four groups which will form the basis of our study together: 1) An overseer should lead a consistent Christian Life; An overseer should faithfully lead his family; 3 ) An overseer should have a history of humble Christian living; and 4 ) An overseer should respectable in the eyes of the non-Christian community.Live a life that can be an example to others, especially if you lead.1 Timothy 3:1-7Sept. 21, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Sep 7, 2025A Proper Approach to Public WorshipSeries: 1 Timothy1 Timothy 2 contains Paul's instructions for proper attitudes and behavior within the church, particularly as we gather in public worship. Some in our culture might view the things Paul has to say here as "triggering." But, we need to let God's Word speak and we need to seek to understand what exactly He is saying through it.In 1 Tim. 2:8-15 there are 3 things which we should take to heart as believers in Christ: 1) We Need a Proper Attitude towards Prayer; 2) We Need a Proper Attitude towards Appearance; and 3) We Need to Prioritize God's Intention for Our Instruction.Pursue Godliness in worship, prioritizing God’s design.1 Timothy 2:8-15Sept. 7, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Aug 31, 2025The Priority of PrayerSeries: 1 TimothyPriorities are important in every area of our lives. Did you know that there is also a priority when it comes to our worship of God? That priority is prayer. God wants us to be a praying people. We find this truth emphasized in a number of different of Scripture.In 1 Timothy 2:1-7 there is a single unifying focus Paul has in view – prayer. More particularly, Paul highlights 3 things we are to do regarding prayer: 1) Make it Your Practice to Pray for All People; 2) Pray That People Would Come to a Personal Knowledge of God’s Saving Power; and 3) Humbly Proclaim the Primary Truths of the Gospel.Pray that all people would hear and respond to the Gospel.1 Timothy 2:1-7Aug. 31, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Aug 24, 2025Hang On TightSeries: 1 TimothyPaul had begun his charge to Timothy by urging him to warn the false teachers in Ephesus to stop devoting themselves to useless "myths." From there, he explained the true nature of the Gospel, on which Timothy was to focus.With the final verses of chapter 1, Paul commands Timothy to fight the good fight - a calling that rests on all Christians. Three things emerge in these verses: 1) Holding Firmly to Our Faith is a Battle We Must Be Ready For; 2) We Are to Live in Light of What We Learn from God’s Word; and 3) Rejecting God’s Truth and Will for Our Lives Brings Real Trouble.Cling to God’s truth and let it lead you into right living.1 Timothy 1:18-20Aug. 24, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.
