In 1 Timothy 6, Paul instructs us on the believer's attitude toward work, wealth, and generosity. This week, we explore three key actions from this passage that shape a life of integrity and purpose.Work with Integrity – Paul addresses the importance of treating those we work for with respect, regardless of the conditions. He reminds us that by working with integrity, we glorify God and embody His values.Manage Money with Contentment – Contentment doesn't come naturally, especially in a world that glorifies wealth. Paul cautions that the love of money leads to ruin and encourages us to find fulfillment in godliness and simplicity, trusting that God provides what we truly need.Leave a Legacy of Generosity – Paul's final exhortation is to be rich in good works, ready to share, and to invest in eternal treasures. Generosity isn't just about wealth; it's about stretching our souls and giving for the joy it brings, the good it does for others, and the glory it brings to God.

In "The Apprentice: What Great Leaders Do," we explore Paul's guidance to Timothy, a young leader overseeing the church in Ephesus. At the heart of this passage, we see three essential principles for leaders rooted in godly wisdom. First, the Principle of Responsibility, where leaders are called to take responsibility for others, especially the vulnerable, modeling Christ's care by honoring and supporting those around them. Second, the Principle of Accountability, reminding us that true leadership doesn't shy away from being held to high standards, recognizing that integrity and correction are vital for growth and community health. Finally, the Principle of Inevitability cautions us that our actions—good or bad—will eventually be brought to light, encouraging us to build our lives on a foundation of faith and godliness.These timeless principles not only shaped Timothy's leadership but offer us insights today: a godly leader embraces the call to serve, remains accountable, and lives transparently. Join us as we learn what it means to lead well in our families, communities, and churches, trusting that, in the end, our foundation will reveal itself.
In this teaching video, we dive into 1 Timothy 4, where Paul mentors his young apprentice Timothy on the importance of staying faithful amidst the pressures of life. Entitled "The Apprentice: On the Job Training," the message reflects on how Christians can avoid losing focus and remain grounded in their faith, despite the many distractions and false teachings in the world today.Paul reminds us that godliness takes practice—it's not something we "try" but something we "train" for. The discussion explores four key areas of focus for growth: setting a godly example, staying immersed in God's Word, using our God-given gifts, and maintaining focus on our spiritual walk. Through scripture, such as 1 Timothy 4:7-16, and wisdom from figures like C.S. Lewis and Albert Schweitzer, this video emphasizes that faith is not just knowledge—it's lived out in our daily actions and commitment to Jesus Christ.Join us as we explore how to be apprentices of Christ in a world that pulls us away from His truth. Learn how to train for godliness and live a life that reflects the love, faith, and purity we are called to.

In Dan Stribling's sermon, "How Do We Live?", he reflects on 1 Timothy Chapter 3, where Paul describes the qualifications for church elders and deacons. Initially hesitant about preaching on such a seemingly procedural topic, Stribling finds deep significance in the chapter, likening it to a “supporting structure” that upholds the church community. He uses architectural metaphors to describe the church as a “pillar and buttress of the truth,” emphasizing that the church's role is to uphold and support God's truth. The sermon compares this foundation to organizing and renewing a household, drawing a parallel to Extreme Makeover: Church Edition, highlighting the need for spiritual upkeep and renewal.Stribling breaks down each qualification for elders and deacons, explaining them as qualities everyone should strive for—such as integrity, faithfulness, sobriety, gentleness, and humility—traits that reflect the character of Christ. He underscores that these standards not only apply to church leaders but serve as a spiritual benchmark for all believers, illustrating that church leadership begins at home, in personal conduct, and in one's family life. The sermon closes with a call for believers to maintain a clear conscience and strong faith, upholding the "mystery of godliness," with an invitation to live as “supporting structures” within the church. Through humility and consistent obedience to God, Stribling urges his congregation to embody the qualities Paul advocates, fostering a church that serves as a steadfast foundation for the truth.
In this episode, we dive into three powerful stories highlighting faith in action. First, we discuss Texans on Mission (TXM), a group of dedicated volunteers responding to the devastating impacts of Hurricanes Francine, Helene, and Milton. TXM Disaster Relief Director David Wells shares how these volunteers bring hope and God's love to the hardest-hit areas, and why he believes everyone has a role to play in the recovery process.Next, we cover the recent headlines around Russell Brand's unconventional approach to baptisms. Brand faced criticism for baptizing someone in his underwear, but his lighthearted and dedicated response sparked a broader conversation about public perception and modesty in ministry. How should Christians respond to criticism, and what lessons can we learn from Brand's unique take on spiritual transformation?Finally, we explore Pastor Rick Warren's bold message at the Lausanne 4 conference. Warren calls for Christians to "re-evangelize" the Church and reignite a spirit of unity and collaboration, reminding believers of the urgent need to fulfill the Great Commission. We discuss the challenges facing the modern church and why Warren believes we must reconnect with the spirit of the early church to move forward.Join us as we unpack these topics, reflecting on what it means to live out faith authentically in today's world!
