The Tale of Tertius

“I, Tertius, who write this letter, greet you in the Lord.” (Romans 16:22)

            When was the last time you thought about Tertius? Likely, this is the FIRST time you’ve ever thought about Tertius!  Tertius was the man who Paul dictated the Roman letter to.  Paul’s words, but Tertius’ handwriting.

            None of us remember Tertius, but we are deeply impacted by the work he did by sitting with Paul, listening, writing carefully, and properly penning the words of the Holy Spirit.  Tertius was a tiny cog in a mechanism that turned the world upside down.

            The lesson? Every Christian matters, and all kingdom work is worth doing.  You never know what your Tertius moment will be.
