Synopsis

We usually think of faith as an active, personal commitment to Christ. This is true, but it's only part of what faith is. Faith is also a treasure we inherit, so that future generations can be blessed. This sermon on 2 Timothy challenges us to see faith not only as a personal benefit to us, but also the way God gathers a community of people over time. This challenge works out in a responsibility to consider how we pass faith to our children, and how we help our church pass faith on to future generationsScripture Reference: 2 Timothy 1:1-14Preached on the 17th Sunday after Pentecost, October 6th, 2019 by Rev.
