What is the role of Elder in the church? What is the role of Deacon in the church? Are women allowed to serve as Deacons? How do the roles of Elder and Deacon fit within the overall leadership structure designed for the church as outlined in Scripture?

In his sermon, “House Rules,” from 1 Timothy 3:1-16, Pastor Josiah shares how God has a perfect design for the leadership structure of the church and explains how every area of service or leadership within the church must be found in either the role of Elder or Deacon as defined by Scripture.

Pastor Josiah also shared how, as Christians, it is our responsibility to live out our lives as model citizens of God’s kingdom. As followers of Christ, each one of us has been called to steward the truth of God’s word and to be a guardian of the gospel of Jesus Christ. As stewards of the truth, it is our responsibility to exemplify Christ in every aspect of our lives.

What is the role of women in the church? Does our appearance and the clothing we wear matter when it comes to worshiping God? How do we decipher the difference between cultural relevance and timeless principles when it comes to studying God’s word?

In his sermon, “God’s Design is Divine,” centered on 1 Timothy 2:8-15, Pastor Josiah addresses these questions as he examines the instructions from Paul to Timothy regarding how Godly women are to function both within and outside the church

In his message, Pastor Josiah shared that when we carefully survey God’s word, we can clearly see that God has a divine design for both men and women that is honors Him and compliments one another. There are timeless principles found in creation that still apply to our lives today. When it comes to determining how we should live our lives and determine the things that God has called us to do, we must always allow God’s Word to be the voice that speaks into our world rather than letting the culture around us speak into God’s Word.

Why is it important to pray for our leaders and those in authority? What does the Bible say about the government and how we should pray for our politicians? Who is the Gospel really intended for? What is the relationship between the government and their Christians citizens?

In his message, “A Gospel For All” based on 1 Timothy 2:1-7, Pastor Josiah answers these questions and more as he shares how as followers of Christ, we are called to pray for all who are in authority because it pleases God and leads to a peaceful life. Pastor Josiah also shows us how the gospel is not intended for a small group of people, or an elite club or Righteous Christians, but that the Gospel is intended for all who would believe. God’s Word encourages us to pray for others with the hope that they, too, will one day be saved and redeemed from their sins.

We pray this message would be a blessing to you and that it inspires you to lift up others in prayer as you intercede for them and petition God for their salvation.
