"Get the word out. Teach all these things. And donāt let anyone put you down because youāre young. Teach believers with your life: by word, by demeanor, by love, by faith, by integrity. Stay at your post reading scripture, giving counsel, teaching. And that special gift of ministry you were given when the leaders of the church laid hands on you and prayedākeep that dusted off and in use."
