Men and Women in the Church (1 Timothy 2:8-15)

We return to our sermon series on 1 Timothy, which is all about how the local church is the steward of the truth--the gospel. In guarding and sharing the gospel, Paul moves from a focus on teaching in chapter 1 to now behavior and order in chapter 2, particularly among men and women. The way we live when we gather together matters! This passage is a challenging one, both to receive and to apply, but we can trust that all of God's word is good for us.
