1 Timothy 6:20

Have you noticed the increasing wickedness in our culture? With so many vile influences surrounding our children, it behooves us as parents to remain vigilant in shepherding their souls. Part of this task involves exhorting them “to be subject to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good deed” (Titus 3:1). Let’s consider ways we can "stand guard" and guide our children in the way they should go (Proverbs 22:6).

The Bible has a lot to say about multiplication. Most of us jump right to either financial investing or sharing the Gospel when the topic of multiplication comes up; God’s expectations are so much greater. This 5-day plan will help readers gain a biblical understanding of the importance of multiplication, apply it to their lives, and prepare them to share this learning with others.

The Bible has a lot to say about greed. Most of us believe that pursuing more money and possessions is the key to a successful life, but His instruction actually tells us otherwise. This 5-day plan will help readers gain a biblical understanding and perspective on greed, apply it to their lives, and prepare them to share this learning with others.

The first of Paul’s three “pastoral epistles,” 1 Timothy focuses on the church as a “pillar and buttress of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15). In the letter, Paul commands Timothy to “guard the deposit” (1 Timothy 6:20) by combatting false teachers, protecting the flock of Christ, and structuring the church well. 1 Timothy shows us the incredible privilege of being in God’s church and the high calling of leading it.
