Some of the most faithful servants in the early church were women who had lost everything — and yet gave everything. In 1 Timothy 5:9–16, Dr. John Neufeld uncovers the remarkable story of widows who devoted themselves fully to prayer, service, and the care of others. Drawing from Paul's instructions to Timothy, Dr. John explores what it meant for these women to make a solemn pledge of ministry, and why their extraordinary sacrifice left a lasting mark on the church.Living the Truth: In this 3-week study of 1 Timothy 4–6, Dr. John Neufeld walks us through Paul's practical instructions to the church — the household of God. What does it look like to live as a genuine believer? What habits mark a life of faithful obedience? And why is it so essential that those who teach the gospel are themselves living it? This study brings those questions to life.
