2 Timothy 1:15-2:7

EXPLORE

  1. What stands out to you in the text?

  2. Paul has been abandoned by many who were with him before. He instructs Timothy to be “strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” How is Paul able to say that in such a dark time in his life? What does being strengthened by grace look like?

  3.  Paul relates the type of suffering those who follow after Christ will face to a soldier, an athlete, and a farmer. What do these examples share in common when it comes to suffering?

APPLY

  1. What are some ways we can encourage our leaders and one another to preserve when they are suffering?

  2. How can we form our perspective on suffering around the gospel so that we may preserve by the strength we find in the grace of Christ?

PRAY

For the needs of each other

For our CG’s to continue to be witnesses for the gospel to our communities
