Hey church. Welcome back to another edition of the Daily Bible Podcast. Hello. I just thought you were gonna keep going. Well, you know, I just thought I'd lay out to see if you wanted to say hi to the people. I say hi to the people all the time. You do? That's true. Yeah. Hello people. Yeah. I hate people. It is Thursday, it is the 18th, and we are back with another full book of reading. So, we've already said this a couple times, but we'll say it again. Get ready for the new year because our, we're changing up our plan. And if you haven't picked up the bookmarks yet, make sure that you look for 'em this Sunday 'cause they'll be available for you. They've got the New Testament and the Old Testament. There's two of them. Make sure you get two of them. There's front and back on both sides and we will be reading a lot of Bible next year, but it's gonna be really good. What do we do the New Testament twice. No, no, just once. No, once, once for both. So we're reading the same amount of bible, same amount. It's gonna be a little more even than what you've experienced this in this plan, because it's not gonna be as it's not gonna be as connected as a unit, right? It's we're just going from the Old Testament and the New Testament straight through. Yeah. And that's a good thing. You'll read it, you'll enjoy it. The readings are a little more even, so it's not gonna feel like a lot one day and a little bit the next day. Yeah. It's gonna be a really good plan for you. Yeah, it will be. It will be. It's gonna be awesome. Looking forward to that for sure. Our by the way, we didn't mention it, but our kids' Christmas choir. Was fantastic this past Sunday. It was great. They did a great job. Priscilla Rapino and Julia and all the other volunteers did such a good time. Good job with them. And the kids did a great job too. Yes, they did. So it was great. Very cute. Excellent. Hey, how do people know where to sit in the congregation? do you know where your kid is in advance? I don't know that question. Oh, okay. I don't know. That's a good one. Yeah. And I don't know I thought there was a memo that went out and maybe everybody knew and I didn't know. I didn't sit in the right spot. I'm just saying I sat in my normal spot. Yeah. Which is fine. I could kind of see my kids and that's okay. I figured I'll just go get the video later on that we post. Yes. Yeah, but I couldn't see them. I was, I was, but I did see Priscilla, she was doing an amazingly good job. Yep. I had a really clear line of sight for several kids and they were fun to watch. Yeah. They're so much fun because if the longer you watch them, the funnier they can be. Totally. Because they're just not always doing the thing that you expect them to do and they just unpredictable. You know, whatever happened to unpredictability? I, you know, the milkman, the people, boy, and even tv. Yep. Is that the word? Whatever happened to, right? Oh, it's predictability. Predictability, yeah. Predictability. The milk man. The paper Boy, you mean tv. You didn't say it with the accent. Family matters, right? I don't know. I, you know what? Here's what I learned. This blew my mind. The same vocalist basically did all of those same shows. Full House Family Matters, the other one and the other show. Yeah. Yeah, it's the same guy. Yeah. Everywhere you go, that's family matters. Yeah. Okay. Everywhere you go. Yeah. Okay. What is Full House then? How does that go? Yeah, it's, I dunno, do, do, do. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. That's the only part I know right now, the rest of it. Me too. Yeah. Had Bob Saget. Yeah, I do. I know that. Anyway, step by step. Step by step. Same guy. Yep. Day by day it's the same vocalist. Yeah. Wonder Years, man. Wonder Years is iconic. That intro. Well, that's different. Yeah. That is a great intro. In fact, when they released it, I forget what media they did. Was it DVD? Or maybe it was a streaming thing. They had to change the intro 'cause they didn't have the rights to that song on the re-release, which totally changed the show for me. I was like, I'm not even gonna watch this anymore. Yep. Not even worth it. Yep. Winnie Cooper. Winnie Cooper. Yeah. She, I guess she's like a rocket surgeon or something. She's doing some pretty amazing things. A rocket surgeon, she's got a PhD in some in mathematics I believe. Okay. So she's really smart is what I was trying to get to. Is she a brain scientist too? She might be. Okay. She's apparently very smart. Alright. That's what I've heard. Awesome. And there's not her name. What's her real name? It's like the race car, Danica. The race car driver. Gotcha. It's not the same person. Not the same person. She's not. That would be impressive. She's not a brain rocket race car driver. I mean, she might be. I just, I've not confirmed that, but talk about a voice that shapes your childhood. That same guy. That guy he does all the songs. He does, yeah. Yeah. He didn't do TH beating his turtles though, I don't think. No, he didn't. But all the TGIF shows. Yes, they were, they were basically him. Two days sometimes. I wish we could go back. That was a different time. That was a good time. There's a song from the nineties that says, I wish I was a kid again. Yep. Toys R Us. Toys R Us? I don't wanna grow up. No, no. Not that it was, it was a hip hop song. It was oh. But some days I sit and wish I was, oh. Back in the day when I was young. I'm not a kid anymore, but some days I sit and wish I was a kid again. You don't know that song? I don't know that song. Okay. Well it's nineties hip hop. Okay. So I'm not sure what the lyrics say besides that part, so don't go look it up. I can't guarantee that it's clean, but I remember that one. Okay. I was thinking Jeffrey, with Toys R Us in the Yeah, that's not what I had in mind. Toys R Us is coming back. We grew up different is all I'm saying. Yeah. Did you hear that? Yeah. Toys R Us is, dude, I'm surprised. I, I'm, I'm, I'm for it. I'm fist pumping. Yep. Bring it on back, man. See, that's what I used to love. When I went shopping with my mom, but there wasn't toys for us because obviously she wouldn't take us to go. But there was occasions when I would go with my mom. I remember seeing it. It was in Cerrito. It was across the street from the Cerritos Mall. There was a Toys R Us there that was ours. Yep. We'd go there and go shopping for people. And during Christmas, it was magical, man. I could stayed in there for hours. Yep. I remember. When Power Rangers was all their rage. My mom got us a couple Power Rangers from that Toys R Us. We drove home. I was on Cloud nine and it was amazing. It was amazing. Yeah, I still remember that like it was yesterday. So Good. Bring back Toys R Us. Yeah. That feeling of nostalgia. I remember I was a Ninja Turtles guy, not a Power Rangers guy, but that was both grabbing the package with the figurine off the hook there in the store and Oh yeah. Oh man. There's something about that. Oh. Indeed that chemical plastic smell and you know all the cancer causing agents that were part of it, you're just like, yeah, gimme some of that. There's a big toy store in Dallas that sells all the retro toys. So all those things from our childhood, dude, they have 'em all count me in, except they're now like 700 bucks dollars. Yeah, for I want Dragon dagger. I wanted that for so long. It was the Green Rangers dragon. You heard it here folks. If you're looking for a Christmas gift for Pass Rod, I don't know if I wanted that bad, the dragon di, but I, I did want it when I was a kid. I would die for that. And that, and the Green Ranger never got either one of those. Will you lead worship with it if somebody from the church gets it for you? I can't promise that I still, I'm still thinking about wearing my yamah. I haven't done it yet, by the way. Thank you, Ramin and Angela for the Yamah. I still have it and I still think about wearing it all the time. I just never I've never bold enough to do it. Well, maybe the 2026 is the year maybe with the no promises, with the dragon dagger. No promises. Yes. Sounds great. I think you heard it here first, folks. Hey, let's get to our Bible reading for today. We are in first Timothy. First Timothy implies that there is not just one Timothy, but two Timothy's. There's really just one Timothy, but two letters to Timothy. And so first Timothy written by the Apostle Paul about how Timothy should really put things in order or help stabilize things or establish things specifically in Ephesus. In fact, he's going to say that right off the bat in verse three. I urged you when I was gonna Macedonia remain at Ephesus. And so, Paul is gonna instruct Timothy to stay there, and he wants him to deal with some problems. Sink the Ephesian Church. He's gonna talk about false doctrine and those myths and genealogies conflict, empty conversations and debates. He's gonna talk about that in chapter one. In chapter two, he is going to get into worship and how worship should be carried out, and what's the proper order for worship to be carried out. Chapter three, he's gonna get into the leaders. That need to be installed in a church in a way that is biblical and right, and godly. And so there we get the qualifications for elders, the qualifications for deacons, and then he's gonna deal with some other elements of just Christian living. He's going to deal with materialism, he's gonna deal with wealth, he's gonna deal with how to be rich. He's not gonna say being rich is necessarily an evil or bad thing. Man, we gotta think correctly about the resources that we have. He's gonna give instructions on how to care for widows in chapter five within the church and where the church's funds should be used in support of people. So, first Timothy has a lot of really good instruction for the church. That's one of the reasons why it's called a pastoral epistle, 'cause Paul's writing to Timothy about the pastoral needs and concerns that he should feel for the church there in Ephesus. Some of the key elements here in chapter one, we get, again, a little bit of Paul's testimony like we read about in the Book of Acts. This time though, he says that he was saved or receive mercy rather for this reason, that in me as the foremost Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. In other words, we often think about Paul and we think, man, think about Paul's testimony. If God could save Paul, he can save this person. And Paul's saying, that's exactly it. That's the point. God saved me and he saved me as an example. He showed me mercy as an example so that others might be able to be saved as well. I just wanna point your attention to chapter one. There's a word that repeats a few times, and it's the word charge. So he starts in verse three where he says, it urged you when now is going to Macedonia remain a deficit so that you may charge, it's another way to say command but it has a bit of a different angle to it. I want you to. I wanna charge you to, to make sure that certain persons don't teach any different doctrine. And then he says in verse five, the aim of this charge is love and it issues from a pure heart, a good conscience and a sincere faith. And then he says later on, verse 18, this charge that I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies that you do this. And by them you may wage the good warfare. So notice here that Paul again, something about his leadership, he's okay with charging and saying, I command you to do these things like he did with Philemon. I could command you, but I'd prefer to appeal to you. He says to Philemon, and then here to Timothy, he's saying, look, here's what I need you to do. I charge you before God and before man to make sure that you do these particular things. And among them is to make sure that the church is united under the same banner of teaching. That's huge because he recognizes that false teaching can fracture a church and cause her to lose her way, and that would be devastating to any church. Chapter two, he gets into how we should be conducting ourselves towards those outside the church, and then also orderly conducting ourselves during the worship services in the church. And so he starts by encouraging prayer to be made for those that are in positions of authority. And notice, he says here in verse two, in order that we may lead a peaceful, quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. I think so. Times as the church, and we've talked about it in one Peter, we're gonna continue to talk about it in one Peter, that there is a, there should be an expectation of suffering that comes along with being a Christian. And we talk about that a lot. And yet I think we can emphasize that so much that we neglect to realize that Paul says it's okay to pray for the leaders and those in authority and the political figures such that you would be able to lead a peaceful life in the church. That the church would be able to thrive. And that's the motivation there. It's not so much that we would be comfortable but man that God would maintain an atmosphere for us where the church can thrive, where we can do good ministry. And so Paul's commending that here in the beginning of chapter two. Okay. Let's get to the section that everybody's gonna have questions about, verses 11 through 15. Everybody Well, yeah, I'm sure everybody, yeah. Tell me about what we should do with verses 11 through 15. So what does it mean that she's not permitted to teach or exercise authority? And then what does it mean that she'll be saved through childbearing? Yeah. That last one is a doozy. Yeah. let's deal with the teaching element here in verse 12. He says, I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man, rather she's to remain quiet. Four. Adam was formed first and then Eve. And so what Paul's referring to here when he says, rather she's to remain quiet, he's not saying that women should not make any noise in church, or can't talk in church, or can't do anything, be on the worship team or anything like that in church. In fact, if that was his. Point there, then we would be wrong on that because we have women that are up on our worship team as well. But rather what he's saying here is the teaching and exercising authority. Those are the two components that we are really concerned with and that Paul was concerned with. And he connects it not to culture. This is not about a patriarchal society, but rather he connects this back to the idea of creation order. He's pointing to that saying, look the design by God was that men should lead. We talked about it even in yesterday's podcast at the very outset about this man in Australia who stepped up and put his life on the line and helped to save people in Australia there from further loss of life. There are things that God has put within men to do that are particularly. Apt or appropriate for their identity as men. Leadership is one of those, and so men are supposed to lead and that includes certainly in the context of the church. And so Paul's instructions here are not saying, Hey, women, you can't talk at all in church. But women shouldn't be pastors. They shouldn't be elders. They shouldn't be in a preaching or teaching role in the context of the church because that's an inappropriate use of leadership and authority where God has prescribed something different. Yeah. Recall our conversation back in First Corinthians where Paul talks about women praying and doing some of the sim, same things that men do. So clearly even in the same book where Paul says later that there to, I have similar response here, that there to be quiet. He's not saying that this is an absolute rule with regard to how the church operates, but just in a certain occasion he's talking about something specific, which the specific thing that you're saying that he's referring to is. Preaching and teaching. Preaching and teaching. Yeah. The last part there she shall be saved through childbearing is man, so has created a lot of questions. I think my best read on this is God has given women a particular role that is significant. That this is something that is massive. There's a connection between a mother and a child that is unique to the mother and the child that even the dad doesn't necessarily share it. And Paul saying to women, you have a privilege of. Raising these children, of having that unique intimacy, that connection, that bond with your kids. You're gonna spend more time with them at home when they're young. You're gonna be more influential in their upbringing than perhaps anyone else. And God has entrusted them to your care to nurture and shepherd them and point them towards Jesus. And so he's saying there the word saved could be preserved rather than saved there because he's not suggesting a measure of salvation that is in addition to salvation by grace alone through faith alone and Christ alone. But. But ladies, your identity, your role is significant in the impact that you can have on the children that are being raised within your home. So does this have anything to do with their salvation and salvation proper that is their relationship with God and a salvific justifying sense. Do you have any sense that this is anything to do with that the women? Yes. No, I don't believe so. Right. So when we say here that she'll be saved through childbearing we don't believe that he's saying they're made right with God if they have kids for sure that they're in any way better than the other woman who has, who doesn't have kids, right. It's nothing like that. Right? This is a challenging passage. You should just do your own homework on this. We can only save very little because we have four chapters to go, or three more chapters to go. 1, 2, 3, 4, 4. There's a lot more to say here, but we would both affirm, this is not saying anything about a woman's justification or right standing before God. This is a commentary that Paul has about the way that a woman is designed to operate in God's economy and how they're going to be blessed, how they're gonna be fulfilled and enriched. And part of that, part of that, not the whole is childbearing. Yep. Well, chapter three is about the leaders of the church. You've got the two classes of leaders here. You've got elders, and you've got deacons elders, pastors, overseers these are all the same concepts, same term in the Greek. The terms are used interchangeably, not same term. Let me be fair. But the three words are used interchangeably of the same role, the same person, the same office. And so these are qualifications for the pastors. These are who you should be looking for. This is the type of character that your pastor should have. And this is what we hold ourselves to, and this is what we will hold any future pastors or elders here at our church too, as well. The deacons are also held to a high standard. The difference, the main difference between the deacon and the pastor is the deacon is not charged with being able to preach and teach. And the deacons are there, remember from the book of Acts as well to free up the apostles or in this case the pastors, to do more of the work in the ministry, the preaching, the teaching, the prayer that the shepherding they're there to be more in that service capacity. And so, these are two very important offices really because of what he goes into talk about in chapter four. And that is the danger of those that drift and the danger of. Not doing this well. The role, the influence a pastor has specifically over the life of those in the church is so massive that Paul even says in four 16, Hey, keep a close watch on yourself and on your teaching and persistent doing this for, by so doing, you will save both yourself and your hearers. So Paul wants to make sure that Timothy there and Ephesus is putting the right men in the right roles such that the church would be stable and people would be. Cared for. Well, okay, quick for chapter three here, I just wanna point your attention to verse 15. Paul tells us the reason for this letter. He says, if I delay, I want you to know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the Church of the Living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth. So Paul highlights the reason he writes to Timothy, I need you to know how to lead the church. These are instructions for that express purpose. Quick question then. Does Compass have elders and deacons? Yes. Okay. Who are they? Well, elders are our pastors. And that's again, because those three terms, elder, pastor, shepherd, overseer, four terms, I guess they're are used interchangeably in the Bible. And you're not gonna find one office differing from the other. And so, you'll go to some searches and they'll have lay elders and they'll have their pastoral staff. And not all of the pastors are often elders. I have a problem with that. I think if a guy's gonna be called a pastor, he should be an elder. Whether you have lay elders or not. But when we look at things we say, man, there really is no distinction. There's no biblical requirement that you have lay elders. And as we continue to grow, we wanna see men that are qualified be able to give all of their attention to serving the church. And so rather than having a guy step out of a dentist office where he's in the dentist chair for 50 hours a week, and then he's coming into the church saying, Hey, let me help you learn how you should shepherd the flock, if that guy's qualified, we're gonna say, Hey, give up dentistry. Why don't you come be a pastor with us. Let's bring you on staff and you can serve with us, and you can be doing this 24 7 and you're gonna be way more effective in helping us shepherd with the flock. So we do have pastors and we do have elders. Our elders are our pastors. We do have deacons as well. Our deacons are our ministry leaders. Those are our people that are serving week in, week out. We've got deacons that are heading up our setup and tear down team deacons that are heading up our welcome team deacons that are heading up our serving in key roles and kids ministry. We don't call them that, we call them ministry directors a lot of times. And not all of them do. We even call ministry directors, but we do have deacons. We just haven't formalized those titles as much in our cultural context. What do you guys have against being biblical and using biblical words? Why can't you be more biblical? Why do you not love Jesus? Well, we to answer those questions. Yes. Yeah, exactly. Now, we're after more of the function than we are the labeling things the right way. And so do we have, are we obeying, are we submitting to scripture the way that scripture lays out the way a church should be led? Do we have elders leading the church? Yes, we do. Do we have deacons operating in the church? Yes, we do. If you want us to call 'em elders and deacons, we can do that, but that's not gonna change. Anything about the day in and day out function of what's happening within the body of the church. Right? I don't think God's very concerned that we call them a certain name, but they have this certain function, right? That's what he cares about. Okay. Thank you. Cool. I arrest my case. Anything else on chapter four? I know we've got a lot of ground to cover, but, oh, chapter four. Well, okay. I thought we were still in chapter three. We were, we, chapter four, chapter three is so important. 'cause what he talks about some drifting from the faith and then his charge to Timothy, Hey, you need to take care of yourself because you have such a massive impact on the lives of other people. Okay. Yeah. I guess I just wanna point verse one here. Teachings of demons, deceitful spirits. This is what Paul warns Timothy about. So you ought to be warned that these things are gonna make their way into the church. Yeah. And this is why you need to guard the content that you take in. Be careful with that. Don't assume that just because someone bears a title or a name of pastor so-and-so, or they're called a Christian, that they automatically deserve your full fledged attention and allegiance. Make sure that you're aware where you're getting the source for sure. Yeah. Yeah. False teaching can be demonic. A hundred percent. We've talked about demonic presence in the world. Recently, and I think we haven't necessarily mentioned false teaching, but I think that's definitely part of it. The teachings of demons. Yeah. Oh, that's scary. Yeah. It reminds me of one John four, one, he says, beloved, do not believe every spear, but test the spears to see whether they're from God. Yep. Because many false prophets have gone on into the world. If that's true, back in the first century, how much more true is it today? Oh, for sure. Come on. Yeah, for sure. Chapter five, he gets into some more instructions specifically on caring for widows within the church. He basically says, Hey, widows should be cared for. But there's a couple of qualifications on that. He wants younger widows to marry. Again, he says they're gonna be carried off by their passions and they should go out and marry again. And so he gives that instruction there. And then he also says that family should be the first line of defense there. That as a biological family or part of a woman's family, maybe somebody that's been married in that family, that extended family. Even should care for that person. And then, and only then should they go to the church and say, Hey we need further support in this so that the resources of the church can be used as they need to be used there. So, not often taught. And a lot of times, benevolence is probably a good time to bring up benevolence. People will even cold call churches and be like, Hey, my power's about to be shut off in the next five minutes. If I don't pay my power bill, you're a church. I want you to pay my power bill for me, because that's what Jesus would do. And we would push back and say, well, actually no we wanna be good stewards of the money that God has entrusted in the church. We want to care for the church, we wanna care for those specifically first and foremost, those who are part of our church, our church family. But we also wanna make sure that we are not doing something that God is prescribed to other people to step in and take care of, and handle as well. So, we're not stingy, we're not ebenezer Scrooge at all. We wanna be generous and we want to be using the things that have been trusted to us to use, but we wanna do it in a way that God is calling us to do it. Yeah. Look at verse 16. I just want you guys to see this here. Verse 16. If any believing woman has relatives who are widows, let her care for them. Let the church not be burdened so that it can care for those who are truly widows. I don't know if you've read that verse before, but notice it's a big deal. Paul is saying, look don't just take on an opportunity to serve by giving from the church resources just because you can. He's saying there's a proper order to these things, and that means the church should not be burdened with some things. It should be burdened with some things. Mm-hmm. But it should not be burdened with others. Yep. Our job as pastors is to make sure that we're allowing the church to be saddled with burdened with the right kinds. Burdens, and that's not everything. A lot of people will think very one dimensionally about a church and say, well, if it's a church, then surely they're gonna give to me because I'm in need. That's not always the case. A church is always concerned about the spiritual maturity, the person who's asking and what's happening in their lives. And we care about the whole person, not just their pocketbook. There's so much more there. And I really wish people knew more about how we think through these things. It's not one dimensional. And I just want you to see that verse there to get a sense of, man, there's more to it than what meets the eye. Yeah. Chapter five continues on talking about elders again and speaks to those that are laboring and those that are worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching for the scripture says, you shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain. Again we're talking about the financial support of the elders there. Vocational call into ministry there. He talks about how to discipline an elder and what's involved there and let not. A charge be established except on the basis of two or three witnesses. If the elder persistent sin, he used to be publicly re rebuked in front of the congregation. This is different. Even this is not the traditional Matthew 18 process, but this is a more direct process of dealing with church discipline when it is involving an elder or a pastor there. And then in chapter six, he's gonna go on and talk about some other things. Anything else there on that? That section. I just wanna point out verse 21. I charge you to keep these rules without prejudging doing nothing from partiality. Paul, again, is charging Timothy with certain instructions. And in this particular case, he's saying just because you like the person, just because you favor them, they're your friend. I can't have you treat them any different. In fact I think what you see here is that pastors are treated differently because there's a different standard of expectation. Yep. That's a right thing. And I think today. Pastors have lost the trust of a lot of people because they're not holding the standard. They're lowering the standard to ways that are far below what they should be. For sure. Yeah, I would agree. Chapter six, then he is going to deal with some more about false teachers. He's gonna deal with the divisive people that have crept in, that are characterized by envy, dissension, slander, evil, suspicious suspicions that is constant friction among people. This reminds me, I think there's room for us to talk about things, for example, like. Conspiracy theories like there can be helpful, fun conversations with that. But things like that can be unfruitful and unproductive and lead to dissension and lead to, what he dealt with in chapter one, the endless myths and speculations about things and we need to be careful about things like that and becoming divisive about our views on this, that, or the other thing, or, well, I heard this podcast and when I heard this podcast then I assume, and I'm gonna paint with a broad brush, that this is true of everything. And so now I'm gonna hold this position. We gotta make sure that scriptures are guide. That's what's really the main source of influence for us as we are pursuing unity within the body of Christ. Yeah. And what you have here in chapter six is something that's pretty similar to what he says in Philippians four. He says in verse six, godliness with contentment is great gain. Yep. So it's kinda like saying I could do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I can abound and I can be brought low. I can have a lot, I can have a little godliness with contentment. That's the game, not the money. However, about money. He says, and most people have quoted it like this. I even heard on an old fifties TV show, I forget which one it was, but I heard the main character saying the money is the root of all evil. That's what he said. And that's wrong because that's not what Paul said. Paul said, it's the love of money. That's the root of all evil. In fact, there's been lots of wealthy believers throughout church history who have used their money in very good ways. Yep. Godly ways. Yep. Money's not the problem. Our heart's the problem. And the reality is that most of us probably couldn't be trusted with a lot of money because we might give money our affection. Jesus said, no one can serve two masters, at least not with highest allegiance. In reality, you can serve two masters, but he's saying one of them is gonna get your highest allegiance and it has to be God. And if you can't be trusted with a lot of money, don't expect God to put a lot of money into your pocket. Because you're not gonna, he's not gonna compete. He wants to be your first and highest allegiance, but better than all that. Be content with what God gives you. For sure. And that's what he says. He says, as for the rich in this present age, charge 'em not to be haughty nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. He even says, we can enjoy the riches. Yeah. That he's given us there. That's right. Yeah. Invite us on your yacht, please. There you go. Would like to go name it? Lake by the church lake. What's it? Closest lake here. Lake Louisville. Lake Louisville. We're gonna go to Lake Louisville together. Yeah. Alright, let's pray. God, thanks for your word. For first Timothy, for the instructions that it gives us for the order that we can look to and see that we need in the church. Help us to establish that. And God, I just ask that you would make us a church that is faithful to where you want us to be. And so establish the work of our hands, Lord, we pray in Jesus name. Amen.
