For Everyone Bible Study Guides

Everyone Bible Study Guides

by Tom Wright, Phyllis J. Le Peau

When you need to know how to do something, a manual is the best place to start. 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus could be called the 'Teacher's Manual' because these letters contain so much advice about the kind of teaching Christian leaders should - and shouldn't - be giving. Just as Timothy and Titus needed help to lead their young churches in the midst of powerful cultural forces, we need guidance for leading and living well in our own context. These studies of 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus point us in the right direction. They bring us to a greater understanding of ourselves and show us the way through the challenges we face.

Reviews

[Jeanette Durkin]

This is an interesting study. It has a lot of questions that really make you think about the instructions left by Paul for Christians.

[Danielle W]

This study is ok. Definitely not super thorough - perhaps a good surface introduction to Timothy and Titus. I do like that there is a strong emphasis on how this relates to us today. There are a lot of “how does this impact you” type of questions.

I absolutely disagree on the conclusion of “women are saved through childbearing” that this book provides. Other than that, the theological claims & historical contexts seemed alright.
