• Jan. 6, 2026: Pastoral Responsibilities
    2026/01/06
    “What’s it like to work just one day a week?” While many pastors find themselves on the receiving end of such questions, the reality is that as Gospel workers, pastors know their jobs are never really finished. As Alistair Begg notes, Paul’s instructions to his protégé Timothy make clear that the church is always in need of pastors who will study God’s Word diligently so they can remind their congregations of the essentials of the faith and present themselves to God as ones approved.

    2026/01/05
    Having urged his readers to contend for the faith and learn from the past, Jude used the closing section of his letter to call them to remembrance, perseverance, and mercy. While our salvation is grounded in the work of Christ, Alistair Begg reminds us, the evidence of our salvation is in our continuance. The challenges to faith in our day may be daunting, but they are also opportunities to show again our great need and God’s great power.

    In Mark 14, we read that as the time for Jesus’ crucifixion drew near, a woman came to Him and anointed His head with an alabaster flask of precious oil. While this heartfelt act of worship provoked the disciples’ disapproval, Jesus celebrated her for doing “a beautiful thing.” Alistair Begg surveys the woman’s action, the disciples’ reaction, and Jesus’ commendation, helping us to see that the only true pathway to lasting honor is to honor Christ.

    In a church context that held great potential for apostasy, Timothy faced the task of leading through the example of his lifestyle and work. Faithful ministry, Paul explained to him, flows from godly character—speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity—and from wholehearted devotion to Scripture, exhortation, and teaching. Alistair Begg considers Paul’s guidance to Timothy, which can help today’s pastors, too, as they seek to watch themselves and their doctrine closely and see themselves and their hearers saved.

    Timothy, the apostle Paul’s protégé, was not only to be alert to the dangers that lay before the people under his care; he was also to make sure that they understood God’s truth.

    In the concluding verse of 1 Timothy 4, Paul instructs Timothy, “Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. Persist in this, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.” What did he mean by these words? Alistair Begg begins an examination of the answer by looking at the chapter’s opening verses, which outline the apostacy Paul warned about, how it would happen, by whom it would happen, and what its teaching would involve.

    2025/10/06
    As he drew his first epistle to a close, the apostle Peter turned his focus to the elders of the churches to which he wrote, urging them to lead their people with godliness. Elders and pastors are shepherds over God’s flock, Alistair Begg reminds us—ones who should lead by example, cultivating humility, entrusting God with their anxieties, preparing to face adversity, and resting in the security of God’s grace.
