Having described a healthy church as one that uses men and women who serve from godly character, Paul closes the first half of his first letter to Timothy with a “big picture” view.  In this section of the lecture Bruce Dick summarizes the third chapter  this way; “a healthy church behaves in a way that reflects the majesty of Christ’s life”.In all Paul's discussion of a healthy church, it all comes back to Jesus Christ. Our churches can become healthy again when we pray and worship and lead and serve with Jesus Christ as our focus and our hope and our longing.
