We all have influence regardless of age or occupation. The question is not do we impact others, but how? Throughout our Influencers series, we will examine the faith of four young people who had an enormous effect on the society and culture of their time. And, we will consider how we can make a difference in our own spheres of influence. This week, pastor Allen will explore Timothy's impact on others. Timothy influenced others with the faith that was given to him.
