Six Virtues that Change Everything - The Rev. Eric Zolner

This week’s sermon (September 28, 2025) focuses on Paul’s charge to Timothy in 1 Timothy 6:11–19. Timothy was young, timid, and often sick, yet Paul sent him into a spiritual battlefield against powerful false teachers. Instead of using worldly tactics, Timothy was called to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, and gentleness—the true tools of Gospel ministry. We’ll explore what each of these virtues means for us today, and how character rooted in Christ is far more powerful than talent or charisma. No matter who we are, the Holy Spirit equips us to live and minister faithfully when our lives are grounded in the righteousness of Christ. 📖 Key Text: 1 Timothy 6:11–19 🙏 Theme: Building a Christ-centered character for ministry 🎥 Join us as we learn how Paul’s words to Timothy still speak powerfully into our lives today.
