1 Timothy For Dads – Week 2

First Timothy 2 covers prayer, leadership, church authority, modesty, and one of the most debated passages about men and women in the church. But what does this chapter actually mean for Christian fathers?

In part two of our six-part series through 1 Timothy, Kent and Lawson explore how dads can study difficult Bible passages with humility, wisdom, and love. They discuss why fathers should lead through prayer, how Scripture should interpret Scripture, and why understanding context matters before forming strong conclusions.

You’ll also hear practical guidance for handling theological disagreements, honoring church leadership, teaching your children discernment, and modeling the biblical principle: “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, love.”

In this episode:

• Why Christian dads should pray for leaders—even difficult ones
• How to study controversial Bible passages in context
• What 1 Timothy 2 teaches about prayer and leadership
• How Scripture helps interpret Scripture
• How dads can model humility during theological disagreements
• Why your attitude toward church authority affects your children
• How to lead your family with truth, wisdom, and love

We pray this episode will help you become a better Bible student, a more prayerful leader, and a father who handles truth without sacrificing grace.
