December 28, 2011 – 1 Timothy 3 – 4

4:12 is one that we often focus on in youth ministry to encourage young people to be bold in their faith. I know growing up I had the impression that religion was for grown-ups and we were told what we should know or what was important. Young people should be encouraged to learn about the Faith and proclaim it and their example can convert those much older than themselves. It is an inspirational verse that we can all take encouragement from, but especially for those that feel they may be too young to make a difference and for those that feel they are too old to listen to a young person’s views.
