Pastor Earl Pennell preaching
“I WILL PRAY FOR MY CHURCH
LEADERS” 1 Tim. 3:2-5
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of
one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good
behavior, hospitable, able to teach; not given to
wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle,
not quarrelsome, not covetous; one who rules his
own house well, having his children in submission
with all reverence (for if a man does not know
how to rule his own house, how will he take care of
the church of God?); 1 Tim. 3:2-5 (NKJV)
