Listen to Paul's testimony, encouragements and commands and become thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Part of the Good Book Guides series.
The church is only one generation from extinction. The societies of our world stand in opposition to Jesus Christ, while false teachers seem to run rampant through churches, destroying faith and denying God's power. Inside and outside church, people ridicule, intimidate and oppose anyone who sticks to the Bible. How can true Christianity survive?
This was the situation that the apostle Paul faced, in prison, near the end of his life, and looking to his younger co-worker, Timothy, to take the gospel to the next generation. In this deeply personal letter to his spiritual 'heir', we have the last written words of the man who had laboured so long and hard, against such odds, to build Christ's church.
Are you demoralised? Feeling cowardly? Tempted to be ashamed of the gospel? Stand in Timothy's shoes, as you work through these seven studies. Listen to the testimony, the encouragements and the commands of the apostle Paul - and get yourself thoroughly equipped for every good work. You too can fight the good fight, finish the race and receive the reward given to those who are faithful to the end.

The Good Book Guides have been developed to ensure that each session not only seeks to uncover the meaning of the passage and see how it fits into the big picture of the Bible, but also leads people to apply what they have learnt to their lives. Flexible and practical, the Good Book Guides are ideal for small groups, or individual study.
"The format is very user-friendly and the content is rich and accessible."
- Justin Taylor, Gospel Coalition blogger and Vice-President of Editorial, Crossway
"God-centered, application-oriented, and driven by the text throughout, this resource is a gift to God’s church."
- Matt Smethurst, Gospel Coalition reviewer and Master of Divinity student at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Here at Covenant Life Church, we have greatly benefitted from the small group resources from The Good Book Company. Many small groups in our family life ministry have used "Colossians: Confident Christianity" in their study of scripture. Additionally, our youth ministry has used "Romans 1-5: God and You" in their small groups. Both resources were very easy to use, helped the reader engage directly with the scriptures, and had a wonderful pastoral emphasis demonstrated in all the questions.
