In 1 Timothy 4:12, St. Paul commands Timothy to let no one despise his youth. H.G. Bishop Youssef explains to us the meaning behind this verse. Often times, as young people we like to make excuses about our service to the Lord or think that we will develop our spiritual relationship with God when we get older. On the contrary, we are commanded by God to “remember the Lord in your youth." In explaining this verse, H.G. Bishop Youssef reflects on the lives of some Old and New Testament Biblical youth characters that set excellent examples for us to follow and prove to us the blessing of remembering the Lord in our youth.
