The epistle for Trinity 14 is a second passage from 1 Tim, this time the first seven verses of chapter 2.

Paul's urging Timothy that all kinds of prayer should be offering follows strongly from the previous passage explaining the nature of the gospel as shown by his own experience.

His call to pray for those in positions of power has a radical edge to is—not least because the goal of the prayer is not about solving social issues, but enabling the good news that Jesus is Lord to be preached to all.
