Written to Timothy, the books of 1 & 2 Timothy present Paul’s passion for preserving the truth of God’s Word. At the heart of Paul’s message is the charge for Timothy to remain true to the gospel, no matter what. Join us in these letters, rich with wisdom and hope, as Paul reminds us how remaining faithful to the gospel's truth is the foundation of a Christ-centred life.

Our earthly lives are a journey, and God’s guidance system enables us to avoid many detours along the way. We remain on the best road home when we allow God’s word to be our guidance system through the Holy Spirit.

After an encounter with Jesus, Paul was radically changed. This change led him to plant churches, go on missions, and write much of the New Testament. Two of the books he penned were letters written to a young man named Timothy. Paul wrote regarding church leadership and ministry perseverance that are powerful reminders to us today as we seek to stand firm with faith in an ungodly world.

The following reading plan is provided to encourage you to dig deep into the Biblical message of generosity. It is here that we discover the good news that God has not only made us to be recipients of his grace but has also invited us to become participants in the movement of his divine generosity. We invite you to join us on the journey toward generous living.

“Extraordinary Ordinary!” is a challenge to live well and embrace the life you have been given with no regrets. We must each accept responsibility for our own lives with no blame or aspersions cast in the direction of others and their choices. You, in partnership with God, will design the life that will occupy the length of your days. While you may not be able to determine all of the events and circumstances of your life, the atmosphere of your life is entirely up to you.

Journey with us this month as we explore the theme, “God’s Saving Word: Encouragement.” [Note: Scriptures are quoted in the GNT.]
