  • One of my favorite podcasts!

    I love this show! I love the way Jenn teaches and the background/context she brings to the verses. Plus she seems to really enjoy doing it and her joy is infectious! I went back to the beginning so I’m only in Numbers but so far I love it. I learned so much about Leviticus which is a book I never understood or enjoyed reading until listening to her explain it!

    Highly recommend!

2 Chronicles 17 - God Is Ready To Help

1 Timothy 3:1-7 - 15 Qualifications For Pastors and Elders
Q: What happens if a new convert becomes an elder?
They should not be offered a leadership role too quickly due to the risk of pride and not being grounded in their faith.
1 Timothy 3:1-7 - 15 Qualifications For Pastors and Elders
Q: What about adult children who are not following God? Does that disqualify an elder?
It's debated; adult children make their own choices, and parents shouldn't be charged for their sins, but training kids well is important.
1 Timothy 3:1-7 - 15 Qualifications For Pastors and Elders
Q: What about a single man or one without children, can he be qualified to be an elder?
Yes, because Paul and many disciples were unmarried, a wise single man can still be a suitable elder.
1 Timothy 3:1-7 - 15 Qualifications For Pastors and Elders
Q: Can an elder be divorced and still be qualified?
It can depend on circumstances such as if the spouse left or if there was infidelity; some argue such divorces don't disqualify a man from being an elder.
