Episode 1003: Keep Reading and Sharing
We are reading Paul’s “last lecture” to Timothy this week. After Paul says to keep on no matter what, he says keep reading.
All scripture is God breathed; our lives, and our families, and our careers, and our kids, and our futures, and our finances need this book's teaching and rebuking and correcting and training in righteousness. The Bible contains guidance for living your life.
Paul also says keep sharing. Paul tells Timothy to preach the Word, to keep telling people about Jesus. Never miss the opportunity.
