A Life That Matters: A 7-Day Devotional From 2 Timothy

Written in a Roman prison cell just before the apostle Paul’s execution, this extremely personal letter reflects on how Paul fought the “good fight” of faith and challenges us to do the same. Keep hoping, keep sharing, keep living out the gospel. Especially pertinent to those in ministry, these four short lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee encourage us to remain faithful to the end. 

Thru the Bible—2 Timothy

In addition to powerful theology and practical application for living the gospel, 2 Timothy provides guiding principles for meaningful mentorship. We’ll look at five verses that will help guide your words and set the tone for your mentoring and discipleship conversations.

The Source

With the Great Fire of Rome and consequential uproar in the city, Christians became a convenient scapegoat and were brutally persecuted at the hands of Emperor Nero. The Apostle Paul was once again imprisoned, and facing his impending death, Paul wrote his last words to strengthen his spiritual son Timothy charging him to fulfill his calling in ministry. Paul’s life is an example to followers of Jesus in any generation.

Through the Bible: 2 Timothy

Written near the end of Paul’s life, 2 Timothy is an earnest entreaty for Timothy to remain faithful to his calling. Paul encourages Timothy to be bold in teaching sound doctrine, to present himself as a worker approved by God, and to have endurance in following Christ. Like Paul, we too are called “fight the good fight…finish the race…and keep the faith” (2 Timothy 4:7) in our own lives.

In this five-day devotional for teens, we explore the Book of 2 Timothy. Learn from the apostle Paul's final words as we discover how to fight for the things that matter and how to fight against the things that seek to harm us.

Fight: 2 Timothy

As a boy, a tragic accident nearly cost John O’Leary his life. The long road to recovery demanded everything from him and his family—faith, grit, sacrifice, and courage. What could have ended in despair became the spark for a life of resilience and inspiration. Today, John speaks to thousands around the globe, carrying a message of faith, hope, and love that was literally forged in fire. John reminds us that no matter how great the adversity, together we can rise, heal, and change the world. See this powerful story when SOUL ON FIRE releases in theaters October 10!

Soul on Fire

Paul is in dire circumstances, yet remains unwavering in his faith. While writing to Timothy from prison, he encourages him to draw strength from the grace found only in Christ. Paul reminds Timothy—and all of us—that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline. May this plan from 2 Timothy chapters 1-3 inspire and strengthen you as you seek to remain steadfast and guard the gospel.

What Matters Most (The Book of 2 Timothy)

Do we want to look back at our time in history and watch Christianity fall by the wayside? Do we want our generation to be known throughout all of history as the generation who was overtaken? It is our responsibility to step up, take action, and lead the NOW generation into the future. We don’t want Christianity to begin dying on our watch.

The Church has Left the Building

After an encounter with Jesus, Paul was radically changed. This change led him to plant churches, go on missions, and write much of the New Testament. Two of the books he penned were letters written to a young man named Timothy. Paul wrote regarding church leadership and ministry perseverance that are powerful reminders to us today as we seek to stand firm with faith in an ungodly world.

Thru the Bible—Titus & Philemon

The last of the pastoral epistles, the book of Titus, was written to help establish elders and churches on the island of Crete. Paul encourages Titus to cultivate both right beliefs through sound doctrine and right behavior through godliness. Titus encourages believers to “be ready for every good work” (Titus 3:1) so that we might show “the goodness and lovingkindness of God our Savior” (Titus 3:4).

Book of Titus

After being released from his first Roman imprisonment, Apostle Paul wrote three known Pastoral Epistles to prepare next-generation leaders, one of which was addressed to Titus. Paul charged Titus to “put in order what was left unfinished” among the fledgling churches in Crete. Paul’s exhortation in the letter is relevant for churches today: “teach what accords with sound doctrine” and help people to “devote themselves to good works”.

Stuck between 2 Timothy and Philemon, you will find 46 verses of what it means to be the church! Ten of those verses feature two of the most profound gospel passages in the New Testament.

We live in a land where truth is subjective, individualized, and culturally conditioned. That same troubling thinking had invaded the churches led by Timothy and Titus, so Paul's pastoral letters to them focus on the objective and universal truth revealed in Jesus.

Philemon: Transforming and Unifying Relationships | Video Devotional

To his spiritual son Philemon, Paul wrote a plea for the restoration of Philemon’s relationship with Onesimus, his runaway slave. Reconciliation between people can be complicated. However, when relationships are restored, there is power at work for unbelievable things to happen. Are we willing to trust God and take chances in faith and love?

[The Epistle of Philemon] Response of Faith and Love

Do you want to read, understand, and love the Scriptures? Often, we want to read but don't know where to start. This plan is a monthly guide to reading the entire Bible in a year.

Daily Reading Plan With Christian Mael (April)

Have you ever wondered about the wonderful ways that faith and love can enhance your life? In this final three-day plan of the Philemon Series, Pastor Mark Rae takes us on a journey through the concluding verses of the letter the apostle Paul sent to Philemon. Here, we have the opportunity to observe the profound benefits of faith and love.

[The Epistle of Philemon] Rewards of Faith and Love

A slave named Onesimus escaped from his owner, Philemon, and met the Apostle Paul in his Roman prison, who then led him to Christ. After learning about Onesimus’ wrongdoing against his master, Paul wrote this letter to plead with Philemon to forgive Onesimus. Reconciliation with people who have wronged us is difficult sometimes. May this letter encourage us to let go of our bitterness and renew our relationship with them.

Through the Bible: Philemon

This devotion taken from Book of Philemon will equip you with biblical truths and guide you to practice it daily as you continue your walk of faith in Christ.

Philemon Devotional - Building a Firm Foundation of Faith (The Bible Effect)

This reading plan is part of a series that will take you through the entire New Testament in a year. Each month's plan covers a specific book. June covers the second half of Luke. Read the daily passage first, reflect on one or more questions, then try the engagement practice.

New Testament in a Year: June

The Merciful Master is a two-week journey of grace through the epistle to Philemon. It is a verse-by-verse study of the letter that explores the generous mercy of God in Christ Jesus and what it means to live a life of love manifesting itself in acts of holy mercy.

The Merciful Master

Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name. Isn’t it a shame that people must go somewhere else to find that instead of looking first to the church? People don’t want a friendly church. They want to find Christian friends. Will you be that friend people are looking for? Through Philemon, Pastor Mark Rae shows us how.

[The Epistle of Philemon] Risks of Faith and Love

The Apostle Paul wrote Philemon, which provides a beautiful example of forgiveness and reconciliation. Paul entreats Philemon to forgive his servant Onesimus, who had stolen from Philemon and then ran away. Onesimus is not just a servant but a brother and fellow follower of Jesus. The book of Philemon reminds us that Jesus reorients all our relational priorities, cultivating forgiveness and reconciliation towards all people.

Reconciliation: A Study in Philemon

This plan offers a 3-day journey through the book of Philemon, making it ideal for both individual and group study.

Deeper Into Scripture: Philemon

In this short epistle, Paul reminds Philemon of his faith in Christ and his love for the saints. He then asks Philemon to welcome Onesimus, his runaway slave, despite the risks. Paul concludes with the rewards of a response of faith and love: Christlikeness, koinonia, and community. This three-day plan will challenge you to practice faith and love in more profound ways. 

[The Epistle of Philemon] Taking Chances

In Psalm 16, David speaks of the joy to be found in God’s presence. Do you ever feel like you are lacking joy as you spend time in the Bible?
