What do you do when you look up and it seems like you’re surrounded by a world that doesn’t want you here? What happens when you try to build a gospel foundation and everyone tries to knock it down? How do you live, work, and minister in a culture that just wants you to go away? As Paul instructs Timothy, the goal is not to tear down everything that surrounds you, but to minister to them in love. While that may be the last thing we want to do, it’s exactly what the world needs.
