    We are Christians on the basketball court of life and how well we play depends on how well we conquer sin in our lives.

    CHRISTIAN BASKETBALL ILLUSTRATION I love to watch my grandchildren play basketball and I try very hard to seldom miss a game. My enjoyment does not come from them being superstars or because their team is always in first place. I enjoy the game because I love my grandchildren; I love seeing ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 16, 2015
     | 5,393 views

    Paul's mention of "myths" and "tales" serves as a springboard for a discussion of six myths/tales that we encounter in our society today.

    The Unexamined Lie: There are “myths” and “tales” we buy into because everyone around us is buying into them. - 1 Timothy 4:6-7. - Talk about (v. 7) the idea of buying into myths that everyone around us does. - Talk about (v. 6) the need to examine even common ideas under the light of ...read more

    Paul commands us to do more than try - we are to train.

    WHAT DOES A VICTORIOUS CHRISTIAN LIFE LOOK LIKE? Christlikeness. - 1 Timothy 4:7a. - The goal of the Christian life is for us to literally become like Christ, not just claim allegiance to Him. - The mention of “godless myths and old wives’ tales” earlier in v. 7 is telling. ...read more

    The Right Focus Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 9, 2015
     | 6,025 views

    Old and new ideas constantly circulate and are repackaged; they can distract us from the truth; we must be on-guard or they will slither into our hearts and minds.

    The Right Focus (I Timothy 4:1-13) 1. Not all problems are difficult to solve.. Morris went to a psychiatrist. "Doc," he said, "I've got real trouble. Every time I get into bed, I get his weird feeling that there's somebody under it. I look under the bed, to check it out, but then I think there's ...read more

    The Two Keys To A Life Of Godliness Series

    Contributed by Dan Proctor on Mar 9, 2015
     | 6,416 views

    Did you know that there are two essential keys to a life of godliness? You don’t have to rely on the local church or your preacher for either one of these. If you are a believer, they are both available to you any time.

    The Two Keys to a Life of Godliness 1 Timothy 4:5-9 Introduction: 1. I have met several people through the years that have claimed 1 Timothy 4:8 as their life verse (at least the first part of the verse: “For bodily exercise profiteth little…”). • Of course, this phrase ...read more

    In my 67 years of life, I have learned that the things that you really want out of life must be worked for. My parents had a great marriage, and I wanted that for my life.

    Introduction After the honeymoon phase wore off, I realized Anne is a difficult person to live with. And I bet you, she felt the same way about me. This year we celebrated our 46th year of marriage because we chose to work at making our marriage work. In ministry, I had this idea when God calls a ...read more

    And this brings us to our third God must win. I must embrace discipline, or I will experience regret.

    Introduction Today, we continue with our series: God has to win. In our first week, we saw that God has to win in the choices that I made. At the end of the day, can you say that you made more choices for God than you did the world, the flesh, and the devil? And then last week, we saw the ...read more

    Persevere Even If It Gets Hard

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Dec 8, 2020
     | 11,084 views

    Believers are encouraged to not lose heart and give up, even in the face of trials and difficulties. To continue in the faith we should continue doing good toward others, continue in prayer, and continue in the word.

    I take as our subject today, the call in Scripture to persevere—to steadfastly continue in the faith no matter what happens.. Some of you have walked with the Lord for many years. You have fought some battles. You have not done it perfectly, but you have continued to follow the Lord. You have ...read more

     | 2,297 views

    Just like there are many do's and don'ts in life, there are also many do's and don'ts in ministry. In 1 Timothy 4, Paul pointed out to Timothy a number of do's and don'ts of ministry.

    Introduction: A. There are many “do’s and don’ts” in life. 1. When we buy a new product it often comes with important labels that give us do’s and don’ts. 2. Here are a few: a. Do Use Like Regular Soap – I wonder how a person uses irregular soap? b. Do Not Eat Toner – When was the last time you ...read more

    Godliness Is Profitable In All Things

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,202 views

    Living a Godly life in Christ Jesus is profitable in all things on the earth and in the heavens. We are called to be good stewards of the Kingdom of God and as we work in the Kingdom of God we must be profitable by multiplying the favor and grace of God over all that our hands are spread over.

    SCRIPTURE: 1 TIMOTHY 4:6-11: If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. 7 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather ...read more

    The Pastoral Challenge

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 24, 2022
     | 4,006 views

    Timothy was not technically a pastor; he was actually Paul’s “delegate.” Nonetheless, he approximated the pastoral role in that he was a shepherd. Timothy faced a number of challenges, as do modern pastors who are serious about the Word. Let’s look at a few of them.

    The Pastoral Challenge (I Timothy 4:6-16) 1. At a recent pastor’s retreat each minister in attendance was asked the following question: “How many people does it take to replace a burnt out light bulb?” The answers were as follows. 2.A Reformed Pastor responded, “None. If God wants the bulb ...read more
