On The Course But Not In The Race

In this message, from Pastor Levi Lusko, we’re challenged to examine whether we’re truly running the life of faith, or just drifting along the course. Looking at Hebrews 12, this message reminds us that following Jesus isn’t passive. God has set a race before each of us, and He intends to reward faithfulness. At the same time, Scripture warns that the enemy is actively trying to steal what God wants to place in our hands.This message explores:The reality of eternal rewards and the Heavenly crowns available to usHow distraction and forgetfulness quietly pull us off paceThe importance of remembering our callingRunning with focus, attention, and effortHebrews tells us to “run with endurance the race set before us, looking unto Jesus.” You’re not racing against anyone else, you’re running the course God uniquely designed for you.NEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: miss a video!
