NOURISHED. TRAINED. FOCUSED.
1 Timothy 4:6-10 is a life, doctrine, and salvation passage. Watch your life, watch your doctrine, and focus on salvation. Good pastor-teachers are to be nourished by the truth of God themselves, so that they are able to convey these truths to the people of God. In other words, the pastor-teacher’s personal nourishment sustains their public ministry. They are to take time and trouble to keep themselves spiritually fit and to this end they are to toil and strive to remain focused on salvation and finishing well.
- Nourished by the Word
- Trained in Godliness
- Focused on Salvation

ORGANIZED. TRUSTWORTHY. RELIABLE.
The gift of administration provides structure, guidance and correction for the church. Administration is organizing, planning, guiding and allocating people, material resources and time to achieve a goal. Administrators are leaders who focus on the details. They thoughtfully consider the course of the church though rigorous preparation and planning. God has given the gift of administration to provide the needed structures, guidance and correction to keep the church from deteriorating into chaos and disorder, and thus ineffectiveness and fruitlessness. God is a God of order, and he is not glorified by a disordered church (1 Corinthians 14:33).
- Organizing people and resouces
- Trustworthy in preparation and planning
- Reliable to achieve goals
