Writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Tom Wright helps us to see the pastoral nature of 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus. They are not just instruction books for junior disciples but a guide to a way of life, and in many way appropriate to all Christians. Paul is anxious to see that those who profess the faith should allow the gospel to transform the whole of their lives, right down to the deepest parts of their personality, and is concerned that ever teacher of the faith should know how to build up the community in mutual support rather than tearing it apart through the wrong sort of teaching and behavior.
