J.K. McKee of Messianic Apologetics will be reviewing important passages from 2 Timothy and Titus.
The Pastoral Epistles for the Practical Messianic takes into consideration much of what has been offered in recent years, not only in terms of the ancient setting of 1&2 Timothy and Titus, but also with how these epistles should be accurately applied in a modern setting. Messianic Apologetics editor J.K. McKee helps to probe these letters for the future development of the Messianic movement, weighing some of our strengths and weaknesses. What are the things we have actually interpreted correctly from the Pastoral Epistles, and what needs to be improved upon? How might some Messianic congregations and fellowships change if we took a good, hard look at 1&2 Timothy and Titus, and implemented some necessary reform? How can we truly be all of the things we can be in the Lord? This significant commentary asks these, and many more pertinent questions.
