#2 Daniel Haveman – Help For Youthful Ministers

Young men in the ministry are often challenged by ambition.  Contentment is the antidote to ambition, 1 Tim 6:6.  A young pastor should be:

Content with his calling, 1 Tim 1:12-15.

Timothy’s calling was very different than Paul’s.

Content with his capabilities, 1 Tim 4:12-16.

Timothy was following in Apollos and Paul’s shadows.

Content with his congregation, 1 Tim 5:1-3.

Timothy could have been very discontent with those he dealt with.

Content with his charge, 1 Tim 1:18, 6:20.

God committed some things in trust to Timothy.
