Why does the Christian life feel like a constant pull downward, back into old habits, arguments, and compromise? Pastor Dorrell answers with the image of gravity: left alone, the human heart falls toward pride, greed, and strife, just as a plane falls without the thrust of its engines. Working through 1 Timothy 6:11-16, he shows how Paul calls Timothy, and every believer, to flee destructive patterns while actively pursuing righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness. Fighting the good fight is not passive; it requires deliberate, daily effort empowered by the Holy Spirit. Listeners are challenged to examine where they've stopped applying spiritual thrust and to recommit to relentless pursuit of Christlike character until Jesus returns.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

We continue our study of the Judgment Seat of Christ, where believers' works are assessed for eternal rewards. Learn about the 5 types of crowns - the incorruptible crown, the crown of rejoicing, the crown of righteousness, the crown of life, and the crown of glory. Pastor Derek emphasises the importance of living a life of faith, obedience, and faithful service, ensuring believers are prepared to receive their heavenly rewards. *1. The INCORRUPTIBLE CROWN (1Corinthians 9:24-27, 1Timothy 2:5) for walking in the Spirit and not following after the flesh, for exercising self-control and denying yourself in this life, in order to live a Spirit-filled life, for living in victory over the sin nature. This crown goes to the man who puts God first, rather than the corruptible things of this life. *2. The CROWN of REJOICING (1Thessalonians 2:19, Philippians 4:1) consists of all the people we have shared the Gospel with, won to the Lord, and discipled (John 4:36). One of the greatest rewards and eternal sources of joy will be all the PEOPLE in HEAVEN, who we will have reached with our witness, discipling, giving and praying. We will see the eternal fruit of our labours in transformed people. This Crown will be given to all who fulfil the Great Commission. That's why it is also called the SOULWINNER'S CROWN. *3. The CROWN of RIGHTEOUSNESS (2Timothy 4:7-8, Philippians 3:9-14). *4. The CROWN of LIFE (James 1:12, Revelation 2:10) for overcoming tests and trials. *5. The CROWN of GLORY (1Peter 5:1-4) for exercising faithful leadership.

Sunday AM 08-09-2026. Verse-by-Verse through 1st Timothy.
Text: 1 Timothy 4:6-16 Big Idea: Persist in growing in devotion to God through discipline 1. Watch your diet: receive the nourishment of the word (v.6) 2. Watch your exercise: grow in godliness through discipline (v.7-10) 3. Watch your life and doctrine: use your gifts and share in your progress (v.11-16) Discussion Questions 1. What is helping nourish your devotion to God, and what may be distracting you from him? 2. Which spiritual discipline; Scripture, prayer, worship, service, or stewardship; do you most need to practice? 3. In which area do you most need to grow as an example: speech, conduct, love, faith, or purity? 4. How does setting your hope on the living God help you persist when spiritual growth feels difficult or slow?
1 Timothy 6:11-16But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13 I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before[a] Pontius Pilate made the good confession, 14 to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 which he will display at the proper time—he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion.

The ways in which people deal with grief vary from person to person. At times things can feel very hopeless and filled with despair. Questions arise such as "Where is God?" or "Does He care?" How can we see God's provision in the midst of this? This Sunday we will see how the Lord shows His care for His church through the means of His church.1) Respect for the family2) Caring for the suffererText: 1 Timothy 5:1-16
What does real godliness look like in the everyday life of a Christian dad? In this episode of the Father On Purpose Podcast, Kent and Lawson continue their study through 1 Timothy by unpacking chapter 5. They explore how biblical character is revealed through the way fathers treat aging parents, widows, women, church leaders, and the people closest to them. Lawson shares honestly about the challenges of caring for his aging mother, the strain it placed on his family, and the unexpected ways God used that difficult season to strengthen his marriage. Kent and Lawson also discuss why honor begins at home, why character matters more than talent, and how your children learn to treat others by watching the way you live. You'll also learn a practical Bible study method for understanding difficult or seemingly contradictory passages: zoom out, study the wider context, and let Scripture interpret Scripture. In this episode: How Christian dads can honor and care for aging parents What 1 Timothy 5 teaches about widows and the church Why the way men speak about women reveals their character How fathers model biblical honor for their children The importance of encouraging pastors and church leaders How to study confusing Bible passages in context Why real godliness must show up at home Your children are watching how you treat people.

Wednesday Night Bible Study with Pastor Jacob Gray from Ten Mile Baptist Church in McLeansboro, Illinois
1 Timothy 6:3-103 If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, 4 he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, 5 and constant friction among people who are depraved in mind and deprived of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain. 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

This episode will help Christian dads: Recognize the lies competing for their family's attention Understand why small compromises can lead to larger failures Prioritize godliness over outward success Lead their children through personal example Use 1 Timothy 4:12 for a practical family Bible study Embrace both their gifts and limitations as part of God's calling Your kids are watching your progress, your failures, your repentance and your faith.

The focus of the Christian life is godliness, which has value now and forever. Old Testament Lesson: Isaiah 11:1-9 https://media.urclearning.org/audio/uploader/tm-godly-07-26-2026-20260731185320.mp3
1.11 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope,2 To Timothy, my true child in the faith:Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.3 As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine,4 nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculations rather than the stewardship from God that is by faith. 5 The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. 6 Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion, 7 desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.8 Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9 understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, 10 the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, 11 in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.
In this episode of The Leader's Notebook (Ep. 323), I take you into Paul's letters to Timothy and Titus—two young pastors entrusted with leading churches in challenging times. From 1 Timothy and Titus, we discover timeless truths about sound doctrine, Christian character, church life, and faithful stewardship. Paul's message is as relevant today as it was when these letters were first written: what we believe shapes how we live, and strong doctrine must always be matched by a godly life. Together, we'll explore the importance of guarding the truth without being distracted by endless arguments, loving imperfect people in a complicated church, and keeping our hearts free from the love of money while using God's blessings for His purposes. Whether you are a pastor, church leader, or believer seeking to grow in spiritual maturity, this message offers practical wisdom for living faithfully in a confused world. Sound doctrine, a clean life, and Christlike love remain essential for every generation.– Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook(00:00:26) - Congratulations!

1 Timothy 6:1-2Let all who are under a yoke as bondservants regard their own masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be reviled. 2 Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are brothers; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their good service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these things.
What does your character reveal when circumstances turn harsh, or when life is easy and comfortable? Pastor Dorrell examines 1 Timothy 6:1-10, comparing hardship and prosperity to a metallurgist's acid test that exposes whether faith is genuine or counterfeit. He shows how Paul confronts both mistreated servants and comfortable believers with the same charge: honor God regardless of circumstance, and reject the corrupt thinking that treats personal gain as godliness. True contentment, not more possessions or an easier path, is the real reward. Listeners are challenged to examine their own reactions under both pressure and abundance, trading excuse-making and discontent for genuine trust in Christ.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Truth doesn't usually disappear all at once. More often, it's slowly replaced by things that sound good, feel right, or seem harmless.In this message from 1 Timothy 4, we continue our Truth Over Trends series by looking at Paul's warning to Timothy that false teaching would creep into the church. The greatest danger wasn't always obvious opposition. It was subtle distortion that distracted people from the simple truth of the gospel.Paul reminds us that the church is called to be the pillar and foundation of the truth. Because of that, every believer is called to pursue godliness, remain faithful to God's Word, and become the kind of person whose character reflects Christ.In this message you'll discover:• Why the church will always face spiritual opposition • What Paul means by "doctrines of demons" • How false teaching often begins with small compromises • Why the gospel must remain our central focus • The difference between charisma and character • Why faithful leadership is built on godliness, not popularity • How every Christian can become a faithful influence in their home, church, and community • Why the church still matters in God's plan for the worldNo matter your age or stage of life, God is calling you to stand firm in the truth and faithfully follow Jesus.
What does 1 Timothy 3 have to say to everyday dads? In this episode of the Father On Purpose Podcast, Kent and Lawson unpack Paul's qualifications for church leaders and explain why they also provide a powerful picture of biblical fatherhood. Traits like self-control, gentleness, faithfulness, hospitality, integrity, and managing your household well are not just standards for pastors and deacons—they are qualities every Christian dad should pursue. Kent and Lawson also discuss what happens when dads fall short, why failure does not automatically disqualify you from leading your family, and how God's grace empowers men to repent, grow, and keep moving forward. You'll learn how to study Scripture more carefully, accept honest feedback, lead without relying on your own strength, and become the kind of man your wife, children, church, and community can trust. If you want to become a more intentional Christian father, lead your home well, and grow in biblical character, this conversation through 1 Timothy 3 will challenge and encourage you. In this episode: What 1 Timothy 3 teaches about biblical leadership Why church leadership qualifications matter for dads How to manage your household well The difference between making a mistake and living in a pattern of sin Why Christian fathers must lead through the power of the Holy Spirit How to respond when you fail as a husband or father Practical ways to become a better student of the Bible Want to shape the direction of the show this year?

He served as a small group leader for teenage boys for many years, helped start the Christian media ministry City on a Hill Productions, then later Sanctuary – a new church in Kennesaw, GA – where he served as its leader for Men's Ministry. Lawson's journey of faith has always been centered in a grounding from his wife, Audrey, and supported throughout by many men whom he's found as brothers along the way. His family is nearing an empty nest phase and has recently relocated to the Florida Gulf Coast beaches area.

Wednesday Night Bible Study with Pastor Jacob Gray from Ten Mile Baptist Church in McLeansboro, Illinois
20 Proverbs 6-7; 23 Isaiah 64-66; 24 Jeremiah 1-3; 19 Psalms 16-18; 1 Thessalonians 3-5; 2 Thessalonians 1-3; 1 Timothy 1-3
1 Timothy 5:17-2517 Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching. 18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain,” and, “The laborer deserves his wages.” 19 Do not admit a charge against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 20 As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear. 21 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without prejudging, doing nothing from partiality. 22 Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, nor take part in the sins of others; keep yourself pure. 23 No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments. 24 The sins of some people are conspicuous, going before them to judgment, but the sins of others appear later. 25 So also good works are conspicuous, and even those that are not cannot remain hidden.
In this message from 1 Timothy 1:12-17, we examine the remarkable testimony of the Apostle Paul and discover how Christ's perfect patience is displayed through His saving grace. From persecuting the church to proclaiming the gospel, Paul's life reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God's mercy. His testimony is not ultimately about his past, but about the greatness of the Savior who transformed him. This sermon explores the biblical pattern of remembering and declaring God's mighty works, from the Old Testament to the New Testament, and shows why every Christian has a story worth telling. Paul's testimony begins with thanksgiving, briefly acknowledges his former life, magnifies God's mercy, grace, and patience, and ends in joyful praise. His example encourages every believer to use their own testimony to point others to Christ, demonstrating that Jesus still saves sinners and receives all the honor and glory forever. ________________________________________ Links to Sermon Notes & Answers: ➤Sermon Notes (Blank): https://www.sheridanhills.org/_files/ugd/30fec2_e0531b74fcb8428d9c56ed99ad427cbf.pdf ➤Sermon Notes (Answers): https://www.sheridanhills.org/_files/ugd/30fec2_9a30abf7395a4a1a88e19bac01aaed20.pdf ________________________________________ In this video: Review of previous sermons in series Main Points Application ________________________________________ Subscribe to this channel to catch weekly expositional sermons from the Bible. ________________________________________ Explore more sermons and information: https://www.sheridanhills.org/watch-new ________________________________________ Follow us: ➤Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sheridanhills/ ➤Twitter: https://twitter.com/sheridanhills01 ➤Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sheridanhills/
Apostasy. Demonic teaching. Marriage. Food. Creation. Seems like a conglomerate of topics yet we will see all of them in the span of five verses. So, how are all these things related and what is the connection with demonic teaching? We will see how the church is God's primary means to guard against the deception of the devil!Text: 1 Timothy 4:1-5

First Timothy 2 covers prayer, leadership, church authority, modesty, and one of the most debated passages about men and women in the church. But what does this chapter actually mean for Christian fathers? In part two of our six-part series through 1 Timothy, Kent and Lawson explore how dads can study difficult Bible passages with humility, wisdom, and love. They discuss why fathers should lead through prayer, how Scripture should interpret Scripture, and why understanding context matters before forming strong conclusions. You'll also hear practical guidance for handling theological disagreements, honoring church leadership, teaching your children discernment, and modeling the biblical principle: "In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, love." In this episode: Why Christian dads should pray for leaders—even difficult ones How to study controversial Bible passages in context What 1 Timothy 2 teaches about prayer and leadership How Scripture helps interpret Scripture How dads can model humility during theological disagreements Why your attitude toward church authority affects your children How to lead your family with truth, wisdom, and love We pray this episode will help you become a better Bible student, a more prayerful leader, and a father who handles truth without sacrificing grace.

When a pastor gets behind a pulpit each week, he must give a teaching. His sermon should be centered around a text more than a title. If there is no genuine teaching, there will be no genuine growth. A big part of Yeshua's ministry was his teaching.
