About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of knowing the right chant for a healthy church, as illustrated by Paul's letter to Timothy.

Paul writes his letter to Timothy while Timothy is helping to lead the Ephesian church. They lived in a city where they constantly heard the chant "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!" Paul offers the chant that Christians should hold dear instead in verse 16. How can we have a healthy church? By knowing the right chant.
