There are substantial reasons to be energized about studying the
Pastoral Letters of Paul. Between them they teach the proper
ordering of the church (1 Timothy), they present a developed
challenge to all Christians (2 Timothy), and they suggest God's
priorities for mature ministry (Titus). Experienced pastors R. Kent
Hughes and Bryan Chapell have done their homework--applying sound
principles in interpreting the texts so that we can understand what
Paul was really saying.
Teaching on important matters for the local church, Hughes and
Chapell offer a timely word to the many Christians who are
concerned about their role and responsibility to communicate the
truth of the gospel in this diverse and pluralistic society. The
Pastoral Letters remind us that, like Timothy, we are to guard what
has been entrusted to our care, to fight the good fight, and to
keep preaching the Word.
Through the apostle's words and the commentators' insights here,
we gain an understanding of what God requires of those who would
lead in the local church, as well as of those who would be led.
Embracing grace, loving godliness, and sharing Christ were not just
charges to the early believers, and are not solely the
responsibility of pastors, deacons, and elders in the church. They
are exhortations for any of us who call ourselves disciples of
Christ today.
