LifeChange Series - 2 Timothy

Christians have a lifelong goal: To become like Christ. This involves change, and change isn't always easy. But the more you know of God's purposes for you, the more you can experience His joy and participate in His plan.

The LifeChange Series of Bible studies on books of the Bible can help you grow in Christlikeness through a life-changing encounter with God's Word. You'll benefit in these important ways: You'll gain a firm understanding of the book - its historical context, purpose, structure and meaning; You'll apply its powerful, relevant wisdom to needs and issues you are currently working through; and You'll acquire personal study skills and a thirst to return to the book on your own - so you can keep going deeper into its life-transforming truths.

2 Timothy
From a Roman prison shortly before his execution, the Apostle Paul writes to encourage a beloved disciple. Timothy, now guiding the church Paul founded at Ephesus, faces persecution from pagans, strife among believers, and counterfeit teachers. As his own labor ends, Paul urges Timothy to "fan into flame the gift of God that is in you." Paul's last words of counsel continue to instruct and inspire all who seek to serve God.
