Paul, an apostle, missionary church planter, and a pastor of great experience, wrote to Timothy and Titus, his trusted younger colleagues in the ministry. They were facing huge challenges in serving the gospel, trying to keep their churches safe from charlatans and false teaching while doing the work of an evangelist in places famously full of idolatry, immorality, and entrenched opposition. Paul’s letters gave them the guidance they needed in such a moment, to keep them on track. And his words contain vital instruction and encouragement for those in the ministry today.

This biblical exposition of the Pastoral Epistles arose of out practical experience, and experience in teaching others to teach others. It is a valuable guide and encouragement for both pastors and laity, and is written in a style which all can easily understand. We warmly recommend its use in the church.

Paul’s words to Timothy, ‘fulfil your ministry,’ are as relevant and urgent today as they were when Paul first wrote them. As I eye the finish line, I am grateful to Lee Gatiss for drawing me back again and again to Paul’s words and for helping me think through their application both for myself and for those of the next generation that I am privileged to train.

… a stirring call from 2 Timothy and Titus for ministers to have confidence in the gospel and to be willing to suffer for it. Gatiss highlights the vital need for ministers who exhibit Christ–like character and practice personal godliness and purity.

Gatiss’s faithful exposition and insightful application conveys the power of God’s word to revive pastors and pastors–to–be for such a perilous time as this. It will kindle ‘fire in your bones’ for the gospel – its defence and its proclamation!
