In this audio introduction to 1 Timothy, I lay out the uniqueness of this letter from Paul, the major themes of this letter, and the problems Paul desires to correct with the power of the gospel.

After listening to the introduction, think about and meditate on the study questions for chapter 1. Please leave some input, either about the introduction or your answers to the study questions.
