The Rev. William Cwirla, pastor emeritus, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study 2 Timothy 3.

Knowing that difficult times were coming, marked by people who would be lovers of themselves, boastful, and disobedient, the Apostle Paul warns that they will oppose the truth and lead others astray. He encourages Pastor Timothy to continue in what he has learned and to put his trust in the Scriptures, which are able to make him wise for salvation since Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.

The "Pastoral Epistles" of 1st and 2nd Timothy and Titus, written by the Apostle Paul and divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit, are a treasure trove of invaluable insights into the early Christian church and God’s expectation for its leaders. These letters, brimming with wisdom, are not relics of the past but remain authoritative today. They offer a roadmap for navigating the challenges of leadership and teaching, making them not only essential for understanding the role of pastors but also for all Christians seeking to live a life that honors God's will.
