    The tremendous commitment of Luke to Paul and the gospel is an example for us to follow.

    Have you ever asked yourself the question, “Would I do that?” Especially after seeing some great act of brave heroism (like a daring rescue). Or maybe some ludicrous spectacle of depravity, done for money (as seen for example on TV shows like Fear Factor, or Jackass). The life of Saint Luke, ...read more

    If anyone had ever had a reason to be afraid and discouraged it would have been Paul as we find him here in a Roman jail writing to one of his closest friends. How can we have a positive outlook when we are living in a negative situation?

    Paul’s time on earth was coming to an end. He had fought the good fight, finished the course, and kept the faith. Soon, Paul would be a victim of Nero’s chopping block. Now one of his closest disciples, Demas, has left him.

    This morning I want to talk to you about falling into Satan’s Trap. As we examine our scripture this morning, we find that the Apostle Paul is writing his final letter to Timothy, his son in the Lord. Paul is writing to Timothy from his jail cell in Rome. I suspect that it is wintertime when ...read more
