Paul, an apostle, missionary church planter, and a pastor of great experience, wrote to Timothy and Titus, his trusted younger colleagues in the ministry. They were facing huge challenges in serving the gospel, trying to keep their churches safe from charlatans and false teaching while doing the work of an evangelist in places famously full of idolatry, immorality, and entrenched opposition. Paul’s letters gave them the guidance they needed in such a moment, to keep them on track. And his words contain vital instruction and encouragement for those in the ministry today.

Gatiss’s faithful exposition and insightful application conveys the power of God’s word to revive pastors and pastors–to–be for such a perilous time as this. It will kindle ‘fire in your bones’ for the gospel – its defence and its proclamation!
