Have you ever had a letter from a friend written from their deathbed? Paul's second letter to Timothy was his last, written before his execution in Rome around AD 67 — and Stephen Mourant, one of our staff team, calls the instructions in it gold dust for anyone starting out in ministry. He works through Paul's charge point by point: preach the word, be urgent "in season and out of season", and the patience it takes to build trust with anyone still searching. It closes with the words Paul chose for the end of his own life — "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" — and a question worth sitting with: will that be ours too? Read the passage first — 2 Timothy 4:1–8: https://www.bible.com/bible/113/2TI.4.1-8.NIVUK Week 14 of our series through Timothy, and the last of our September reflections. Prefer to watch?

What does it take to finish the race of faith well? Drawing on Paul's images of the athlete, the soldier and the hardworking farmer, we consider the dangers, pressures and disappointments that can cause Christians to lose heart. Yet alongside the warnings comes a powerful encouragement: faithful perseverance is possible through spiritual discipline, dependence on God and a fixed hope in the reward Christ promises. Whether you are serving in formal ministry or seeking to follow Christ faithfully in everyday life, this episode is a timely call to spiritual fitness, perseverance and finishing the race well. Questions answered in this episode: -What did Paul mean when he said, "I have finished the race"? -Why does the Bible compare the Christian life to athletic training? -What challenges do Christian leaders face as they seek to remain faithful? -How can believers maintain their spiritual fitness over the long term? What encouragement does 2 Timothy offer to Christians facing opposition, discouragement or suffering? The Bible Matters Podcast is funded entirely by the generous donations of its listeners.

In this message, we're challenged to preach the Word—not only from the pulpit, but in our homes, workplaces, relationships, and everyday lives. Through the example of Stephen and the teaching of Scripture, we're reminded that when God's Word is faithfully proclaimed, it brings conviction, freedom, healing, joy, and transformation.
Trevor Teel continues his study on 2 Timothy, focusing on the charge to Preach The Word and what that looks like in today's life.

Preach the WordWhat do you do when life gets difficult, the situation looks impossible, and you're struggling to see how God's promises could possibly come to pass? The answer is simple: Preach the Word.Drawing from Ezekiel's valley of dry bones and Paul's charge to Timothy, this message reminds us that our responsibility isn't to produce the outcome—it's to proclaim what God has spoken. Even when we don't feel it, see it, or understand it, we can declare the goodness, faithfulness, and power of God.When it's convenient and when it's not. In season and out of season. Preach the Word.
Pastor Mitch Helmkamp preaches from 2 Timothy 3 and shares that we preach the Word because God uses His Word to save sinners, sanctify believers into the image of Christ, and awaken people to the reality of who He is. Because the Word has this transforming power, we are called to pray for what is preached, practice what is preached, and prioritize the preaching of God's Word in our lives.

As we are on final approach to landing this letter, we encounter a watershed passage about the power and authority and importance of God's word. Joined to it is the perfect three-word summary of what Paul wanted Timothy to do: Preach The Word. 1 - Continue In The Sacred Writings (3:14-15) 2 - Be Equipped And Equipping (3:16-17) 3 - Preach The Word (4:1-5)
2 Timothy 4:1 - Rev. Andrew Boreland - Morning Service
In this message from 2 Timothy 4, Pastor Kirt Anderson unpacks Paul's final charge to Timothy to "preach the word" no matter the cost. Drawing on his seminary training under theologian Bruce Metzger and the Barmen Declaration written in 1930s Germany, Pastor Kirt asks what it looks like for the church to stay faithful to Scripture when culture pushes toward compromise, and why we should ask why a fence is there before we tear it down.Pastor Kirt closes by turning to Paul's own words near the end of his life: "I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." He reminds us that our hardest battle for faithfulness isn't found out in the culture around us, it starts within our own hearts. Join us as we consider what it means to fight the good fight today.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260623dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the Word The apostle Paul wrote these words to his good friend and coworker, Timothy, near the end of his life. He knew his death was coming. He had fought the good fight. He had finished the race. He had kept the faith. So, what final instruction did he give to Timothy? “Preach the word.” Paul did not tell him to preach what people wanted to hear. He did not tell him to follow the mood of the crowd. In fact, Paul warned that the time would come when people would not put up with sound doctrine. They would gather teachers who told them what their itching ears wanted to hear. That warning still matters. God’s Word is not always popular. Sometimes it corrects us. Sometimes it rebukes us. Sometimes it exposes sins we would rather excuse. But the same Word that wounds our pride also heals our souls. It shows us our sin, and then it shows us our Savior. That is why Paul says to preach it “with great patience and careful instruction.” God’s Word is not a weapon for winning arguments. It is the voice of Christ calling sinners to repentance, forgiveness, faith, and life. You may not be a pastor like Timothy. But you still need this Word. You need it when your heart wants comfortable lies instead of saving truth. You need it when the world calls evil good and good evil. You need it when you are tired, tempted, afraid, or ashamed. And through that Word, Christ comes to you. He corrects you because he loves you. He rebukes your sin because he died to remove it. He encourages you because he rose again and promises you the crown of righteousness. So, listen to the Word. Trust the Word. Treasure the Word. It is Christ's Word for you. Prayer: Lord Jesus, keep me faithful to your Word. Correct me, forgive me, encourage me, and strengthen me to hold firmly to your truth. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Pastor Mike continues his theological critique against the practice of altar calls. He expands on his arguments by explaining that altar calls frequently grant individuals false assurance of salvation, mislead believers into relying on a church building "saving zone" instead of personally evangelizing others, and minimize the biblical significance of baptism as the true public profession of faith. Abendroth further contends that altar calls inappropriately manipulate the pinnacle of the worship service and risk confusing the preacher or an inquiry helper with the sole mediator, Jesus Christ. Ultimately, he maintains that the sovereign preaching of the Word carries the true power to save, calling individuals to repent and believe exactly where they are.

2 Timothy 4 (NASB) 1 I solemnly exhort you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: 2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; correct, rebuke, and exhort, with great patience and instruction. 3 For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance with their own desires, 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth and will turn aside to myths. 5 But as for you, use self-restraint in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. 6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; 8 in the future there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing. 9 Make every effort to come to me soon; 10 for Demas, having loved this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. 11 Only Luke is with me. Take along Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service. 12 But I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus. 13 When you come, bring the overcoat which I left at Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments. 14 Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will repay him according to his deeds. 15 Be on guard against him yourself too, for he vigorously opposed our teaching. 16 At my first defense no one supported me, but all deserted me; may it not be counted against them. 17 But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that through me the proclamation might be fully accomplished, and that all the Gentiles might hear; and I was rescued out of the lion's mouth. 18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen. 19 Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus. 20 Erastus remained at Corinth, but I left Trophimus sick at Miletus. 21 Make every effort to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, also Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers and sisters. 22 The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you. 1. Your number one priority 1-4 2. Fulfill your ministry 5-8 3. Final thoughts 9-22
Preaching transforms our passions, keeping us from wandering from the truth as we both hear & herald God's Word.---We desire to see the Gospel saturate a people, awakening them by the glory of God to treasure Jesus as better.For more Gospel-centered teaching and resources, including audio and video downloads of our sermons, please visit our website: http://www.thewellchurchok.com/resourcesInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/thewellchurchokFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/thewellchurchok

Includes intercession, ministry updates, biblical correction done in love, and a closing prayer commissioning the remnant to walk the King's Highway. Key Scriptures: 2 Timothy 4:1–5; themes of holiness, sanctification, endurance, and returning to the full counsel of God (Genesis → Revelation). Prayer Focus & Updates: Intercede against occult activity, protection of children, healing for Justin & spouse, Troy's surgery, and continued recovery after cataract surgery.
