The Problem & Purpose of… Stuff

We’ve nearly made it. We started our Call of Duty series eight weeks ago with the purpose of discovering some of our responsibilities as Christians. And as we’ve looked at the book of First Timothy, we’ve found a wide variety of instructions that Paul had written to Timothy and that are now applicable to us.

For example, you’ll remember that we learned that we have a responsibility to pray for our community – and especially for those in places of authority.

We talked about our responsibilities as men and women – and about our responsibilities as elders and deacons in the church.

And last week we talked about our responsibilities to our families and to those in our community who have no family to care for them.

So there have been a lot of things to absorb over these past eight weeks, but I trust that you’ve been challenged as we’ve been reminded of some of our responsibilities and then further challenged as we try to live up to the responsibilities that God has given us.

So if you’re ready for one more challenge today as we conclude this series, let’s pray together before looking at the last chapter of First Timothy.
