Are you tempted to be depressed over news headlines? Nancy DeMoss Wacklemouth can understand.

I can get so twisted in a knot inside about everyone who's having an affair, affairs,

and divorces and abuse, and the country's falling apart, and the world's going crazy,

and ISIS is taking over the world, and they're coming here. And I can just get really

twisted about all of that. And these are serious things. I don't mean to minimize them.

The darkness is getting darker. Ladies are the power of God and his spirit. We have a light.

This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast for Monday, May 16th, 2016. How might God want you to pass biblical truth onto the next generation?

Last week, Nancy helped you explore that question.

We heard a series of messages she gave to women's ministry leaders

at a Revive Our Hearts conference called Revive 15.

Today, we'll wrap that series up with a charge to teach God's word.

She's in 2 Timothy, Chapter 4, verse 1. Now, in the immediate context here, Paul's talking to a pastor,

he's talking to an elder, and he's challenging and charging the spiritual leaders of the church,

the men who've been given the responsibility to shepherd

the flock of God. He's saying, this is what you must do as shepherds. But I believe by way of

application that there are principles here for us as well as we seek to disciple women in the ways

of God to shepherd those women that God has put around us.

You may be doing this with your children.

You may be doing it in a Sunday school class or in a one-on-one discipleship.

However you're doing this in a small group, I think there's a charge that applies here to us as well.

A charge you, urge you, exhort you.

This is not a suggestion.
