We live in a world that celebrates gifting — if you can sing, speak, or post, you get a platform. But almost nobody claps for discipline. In week 4 of Letters to Timothy, Pastor Josh Canizaro unpacks Paul's charge to "train yourself to be godly" (1 Timothy 4): why character is built in private while gifting gets the applause, why growth requires intentional training, and why your gift can take you somewhere your character isn't prepared to keep you.

In this message:
Growth requires intentional training — you don't drift into godliness, you drift into distraction
Your life preaches louder than your words
Don't let insecurity shrink your calling

Scripture: 1 Timothy 4:7-8, 1 Timothy 4:12, 1 Timothy 4:14-16, Matthew 5:16
