Dear CrossPointe,

I can hardly wait to study and unpack 1 Timothy 2:1–7 with you this week! It's so full of gospel truth, and, when rightly understood, serves as fuel for assurance in the Christian life and motivation for evangelism and missions. Read it several times before Sunday. Invite an unbelieving friend. Pray for God to open blind eyes and put steel in our spine.

Grace and peace!

Brad
