Lois was the grandmother of Timothy, and Paul honours her as the first in a chain of faith: the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice. Three generations of sincere belief, handed down within one family.
It was Lois and Eunice who, from a child, taught Timothy the holy scriptures — the foundation on which Paul built. Her name is a quiet tribute to every grandmother whose faith shapes the generations after her.
Lois is a vintage, gentle classic — sweet, old-fashioned, and warmly enduring.
