In a fast-paced, technology-based era when drive-thrus, cell phones, laptops, and Internet banking are the norm, it's sometimes hard to fathom that God doesn't appreciate our frail attempts at spiritual shortcuts. Through the pastoral epistles, 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus, with insight from Paul's letter to Philemon as well, Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe illustrates that working for God's Kingdom requires tenacity, never-ceasing prayer, and protective battle gear that only God can provide.

Stir Up The Gifts is a Biblical study on both books of Timothy. Paul wrote to inspire the young minister in being a leader for a church in Ephesus. God knew that Timothy would deal with a variety of situations and problems. Due to these issues, Paul wrote to the young man for help and instruction. These letters cover everything from how to be a leader, teaching people how to live, navigating societal norms, and being a generally good person in the community. Although this was for Timothy, we, in modern times, can use these letters for our enlightenment as well.

For centuries, Romans chapters 9 through 11 have sparked intense debates over predestination, election, and Israel’s place in God’s plan. Many argue that Paul teaches God predestines certain people for salvation and others for damnation, or that Israel has been replaced by the Christian church. But what if these interpretations miss the mark? This verse-by-verse commentary offers a fresh perspective, challenging traditional views and proposing that election is God’s call to service, not salvation.

Ephesians is a wonderful book for Christians who need encouragement during trying times. It was written by the Apostle Paul to the churches in Ephesus but applies to all believers in Christ.

For both Ruth and Esther, God used stressful circumstances to bring about his eternal purposes.

The Apostle Paul was given a radical message to deliver to the world. Paul preached that we are brought into possession of everything that God has for us, not by strenuous moral effort, good works, or self-sacrifice, but by simple faith in Christ alone. Furthermore, he taught that we cannot improve upon the finished work of Christ in our lives by ascetic activities such as fasting or other forms of self-denial. As Christians, we are "complete in him", and there is no room for improvement.

The Book of Philippians is one of the most quotable, stirring, and rousing segments of the New Testament. Yet when Paul the missionary and apostle wrote this manifesto while chained in Rome, did he merely intend for his readers to divvy it up into a handful of inspirational slogans? Or did he have a deeper purpose in mind for the church? Paul’s epistle to the Philippians sports many pivotal motifs—joy, suffering, humility, and encouragement.
