Teaching 1 Timothy
From text to message
Angus MacLeay
Launch pad for Biblical exposition planning
Shows how to navigate a godly life in today's culture
Timothy from Lystra was known as Paul the Apostle's 'son' and apprentice who was to learn the things of the faith from him. Timothy was later to be sent to Ephesus serving as Paul's representative. The Ephesians had lost their focus on the message of the gospel. They were materialistic and their lives were marked by ungodly living. Timothy's task was to call them back to the cross and what Jesus Christ had done for them, setting their sights on what they would receive when Christ returned for them. Until then they were to live lives of godliness and holiness. This book will help you to teach 1 Timothy, showing how we can navigate a godly life even in today's culture.
This useful resource, alongside the others in this growing Teaching the Bible series, is for those who have the privilege and the joy of teaching or preaching a particular book or theme from the Bible. Whether you are a small group leader, preacher or a youth worker, it will help you to communicate the message from 1 Timothy. This book will provide a useful launching pad for Biblical exposition planning and executing a lesson or sermon in particular with background, structure, key points and application.

"The need of the hour is Bible knowledge. When knowledge fails, faith fails, and we are shaped instead by cultural forces alien to God. This teaching series, written by skilled and trustworthy students of God's word, helps us to understand the Bible, believe it and obey it. I commend it to all Bible readers, but especially those whose task it is to teach the inspired word of God."
Peter Jensen

The Teaching series is a great resource for Bible study leaders and pastors, indeed for any Christian who wants to understand their Bible better.

"If the growing feminisation of the church is to be challenged and men encouraged to step up and take the lead, then we need 1 Timothy to be preached, taught and modelled in our churches."
