The Message
11-14 Get the word out. Teach all these things. And don’t let anyone put you down because you’re young. Teach believers with your life: by word, by demeanor, by love, by faith, by integrity.

And that special gift of ministry you were given when the leaders of the church laid hands on you and prayed—keep that dusted off and in use.
