God has given us promises that have not yet been fulfilled, but they will be IF we don't give up. This seems obvious, but we tend to forget it, get discouraged, and lose heart. Join me for today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn more.Scripture Used in Today's MessageHebrews 10:32-39To find Tom on Instagram, Facebook, TiKTok, and elsewhere, go to linktr.ee/tomthepreache

What does it mean that the man who wrote "It Is Well With My Soul" didn't finish well, and what does it have to do with our faith today?

There are two similar prayers that have the same theme of sanctification like two bookends.  What is found in between the bookends is instructional.  There is a different outlook for fellow believers in death.  As all of Paul's letters end, this one also finishing with God's grace.

Send us a messageAs the finish line of a demanding season comes into view, it's easy to slip into survival mode - just trying to make it through the week, the month, or the school year. But in this third episode of the "Refuel" series, we talk about the difference between simply finishing fast and actually finishing well. Because when we rush emotionally toward the end, we often stop being fully present in the moments, relationships, and responsibilities still right in front of us.This episode is an honest and encouraging conversation about staying intentional when you're tired, resisting the urge to emotionally check out, and learning how to close a season with presence, gratitude, and purpose. Whether you're in education, ministry, leadership, or just navigating a demanding season of life, this conversation will challenge you to slow down enough to notice what still matters before the season is over.

Listen to Josiah preach on the life of King Solomon as we continue our “Kings” Summer Series. Through Solomon's story, we see why it's often easier to start well than to finish well. Listen to this message to see how we can overcome the threats that pull our hearts away from God so that we can finish our race well.

Why do gifted Christian leaders fall—and what kind of formation helps us finish well? In this episode of the Lausanne Movement Podcast, Jason Watson speaks with Malcolm Webber about why so many Christian leaders fall—and why the answer is not simply better information, stronger gifting, or more ministry activity. Malcolm invites us back to Jesus' way of forming leaders through union with Christ, accountable community, tested character, God-given calling, and Spirit-shaped competencies. Main Points Leadership failure is often a formation crisis. Malcolm argues that many leaders fall because the deep issues of their lives were never addressed. Jesus shows us how leaders are formed. Jesus developed leaders through relationships, teaching, assignments, pressure, failure, and mission. Union with Christ comes first. Healthy leadership begins with abiding dependence on Jesus, not gifting, platform, productivity, or ambition. Leaders need an accountable community. Spiritual mothers and fathers, mentors, correction, nurture, and encouragement are essential for finishing well. The 5Cs offer a framework for healthy leadership. Christ, community, character, calling, and competencies help leaders pursue holistic growth. Finishing well requires intentional rhythms. Malcolm urges leaders to pursue personal growth, choose real accountability, practice spiritual rest, and receive wisdom from previous generations. Call to Action Subscribe to the Lausanne Movement Podcast, leave a review, and share this episode with a pastor, ministry leader, mentor, or younger leader who is seeking to lead from a healthier place. Then take one practical step this week: name a spiritual mother, father, mentor, or trusted friend who can walk with you in honest accountability.

Too often today, people quit before their race is finished. Some let fear, hardship, or even foolish choices rob them of the long, fruitful life God intends. Continuing in his series from Philippians with the message "Faith to Finish Well," Pastor Bayless shares how you can live with the same confidence of finishing well that the apostle Paul had—even while he was in prison. You'll discover how focusing on the eternal rewards the Lord will hand out in heaven can give you the strength to endure even the toughest challenges. Be inspired to keep the faith, finish your race, and live with confidence that there is a reward laid up for you in heaven!

Doug Bullock directs the aftercare at the Retreat at Church Creek, a ministry that serves pastors, encouraging them to live well and finish strong. Simultaneously, he has been pursuing his doctorate in pastoral re?rement. After graduating from Dallas Theological Seminary, Doug previously served as the Lead Pastor of Eastern Hills Bible Church in Manlius, NY. Upon retiring from that ministry, he began investing in younger pastors and encouraging other older pastors to join him. Yet strangely, at the same time, he began to observe the very questions about which he now writes, in his life and the lives of others.On today's 95Podcast, discover how pastors can prepare for retirement, deal with loss, and continue impactful ministry. Doug Bullock, author of New Dawn, shares insights on pastoral health, mentoring, and honoring both retiring and younger pastors in the local church.Show Notes: https://95network.org/95podcast-333-summary-pastoral-retirement-how-to-finish-well-and-start-a-new-season-of-ministry-w-doug-bullock-episode-333/Support the show

"It is not enough to begin well. By God's grace, we must finish well.In this sermon on Galatians 5:7–12, Paul's burden becomes deeply personal and urgent: “You were running well. Who hindered you?” The Galatians had begun in the truth of the gospel, but false teachers were pulling them away from justification by faith.This passage is a sobering warning about:beginning well but failing to finishdoctrinal compromisethe spreading danger of false teachingthe seriousness of those who trouble Christ's churchthe offense of the cross that faithful preaching must preservePaul reminds us that a little leaven leavens the whole lump. False doctrine never remains small. It spreads, corrupts, and leads people away from the God who called them.At the same time, this text offers hope: God uses the preaching of his Word to keep his people on the path of life. The way to finish well is to hold fast to the true gospel without wavering.May it never be said of us merely that we began well, but rather that by grace we endured faithfully to the end.#Galatians #FinishWell #Perseverance #JustificationByFaith #FalseTeaching #Gospel #Faithfulness #ChristianLife"

Dr. Rick Houk - Finish Well by West Coast Baptist College

Message from Greg Neal on February 26, 2026

 How do you want to finish your life? That's not an easy question to think about. When we're young, we don't think about it at all. And the older we get, the more distracted we get. Some folks would love to be distracted all the way to the grave.But God wants so much more for you than that. SO much more....In this episode of Live the Bible, we're opening God's Word to 2 Timothy to uncover the secret to living and finishing well. Support the show

“The end of a thing is better than its beginning; the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.” (Ecclesiastes 7:8 NKJV) The poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said, “Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending.” And Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, wrote, “The end of a thing is better than its beginning” (Ecclesiastes 7:8 NKJV). Starting strong is overrated. Take sports, for example. Few baseball statisticians keep track of which team was ahead after the first inning. What matters is the final score. Likewise, starting strong is overrated in our spiritual journey. The Bible gives us examples of people who started strong in their service to the Lord, only to falter later. Scripture doesn’t celebrate these early successes; instead, it uses the people’s experiences as cautionary tales for other believers. One of the most memorable of these cautionary tales is that of Samson. Samson had a great beginning. He was blessed with superhuman qualities. Physically, there was no one stronger. We get a sense of his power in Judges 14:5–6: “As Samson and his parents were going down to Timnah, a young lion suddenly attacked Samson near the vineyards of Timnah. At that moment the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon him, and he ripped the lion’s jaws apart with his bare hands. He did it as easily as if it were a young goat” (NLT). Samson was a one-man army, a judge chosen by God to make a difference on behalf of His people. On one occasion Samson killed thirty Philistines—the enemies of the Israelites—to settle a bet. On another occasion he killed 1,000 Philistine warriors on the battlefield with a bone that he picked up from the ground. He wasn’t a fictitious superhero; he was the real deal. For a time, Samson was a mighty man of God. And for a time, he was even a true world changer. Eventually, however, the world began to change him. Samson turned his back on God. He had an amazing beginning but a tragic ending. One day your life will be summed up in a paragraph or two on a bulletin that will be handed out at your memorial service. No one will care about how much money you made or how much stuff you owned. No one will care how high you climbed in your profession. Instead, they’ll talk about what kind of person you were. We don’t decide the day of our death any more than we decided the day of our birth. But we do determine the spiritual state we’ll be in when we die. God wants us to be close to Him. God wants us in friendship and fellowship and intimacy with Him. But it’s our choice whether to have a relationship with the Lord or not to have a relationship with Him. We must choose wisely so that we finish well. Reflection question: How do you want to finish your walk with the Lord?

Aloha and welcome to The Mission North Shore's Podcast! This powerful message takes us to the ancient city of Beit She'an, where we witness the tragic end of King Saul's life and discover what it truly means to finish well. Through the contrasting lives of two men named Saul—King Saul and Saul of Tarsus (the Apostle Paul)—we're confronted with a sobering truth: it's not how we start our spiritual journey that matters most, but how we finish it. 

Satan works through Nehemiah's enemies to attack him in four ways in Nehemiah 6:1-7:4.   Distraction (6:1-4) Defamation (6:5-9) Deception (6:10-14) Infiltration (6:15-7:4) Let us learn from Nehemiah's example how we can resist these tactics and so finish well.   You can watch this message here.

We continue our study through the Gospel of John with John 19:16b–30, where we witness the crucifixion of Jesus and hear His final words from the cross: “It is finished.” Jesus finished His life well. The question for every one of us is simple—and unavoidable: How will you finish? In this message, we see that finishing well doesn't happen by accident. From Golgotha, Jesus shows us what a faithful life looks like all the way to the end. As He carries His own cross, fulfills God's plan, cares for others even in suffering, and completes the work the Father gave Him, we are challenged to follow His example. Together, we explore three essential truths: 1. Jesus carried His own cross; we must carry ours — dying to self and living fully for Christ. 2. Jesus knew His assignment; we must know ours — discovering God's purpose as we walk closely with Him. 3. Jesus finished His work; we must finish ours — remaining faithful to Jesus until our final breath. God had a plan for Jesus' life, and He has a plan for yours. The way we finish is shaped by how we live today. May this message encourage you to deny yourself, follow Jesus wholeheartedly, and commit to finishing your race well—for the glory of God.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 27th of December, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Gospel of Mark 2:3: ”Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men.” Remember what happened? They brought a paralysed man to Jesus. There were so many people in the house, they couldn't get into the house. There were so many people outside, they couldn't get near to the Lord. They took the paralysed man; they loved him so much. These four men carried him onto the roof of the house, started taking the tiles away, let him down from the roof with ropes, on his bed, and put him right in front of the Saviour. That's commitment, isn't it, hey? But think of the scripture. If that man had not been paralysed, he probably would never have had an opportunity of meeting Jesus Christ, face to face.Paul says in the Book of Romans 5:3-4:”And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope.” That's why we can say we rejoice in our tribulation. Maybe today you are going through a tough time, and you think Lord, why is this happening to me? Why am I not being healed instantly? Why has this got to be my lot in life?I want to tell a story. There was a very famous hymn writer. Her name was Fanny Crosby. Fanny Crosby was blind. She became a hymn writer. She wrote over 8,000 hymns, and you know that over 100 million copies of her hymns were printed. Most of the famous hymns that we sing today were written by her. They asked her, when she was very old, would she not have preferred to have been born with normal eyes like everybody else? And she said, “No,” because if she had, she probably would never have had the ability, the time, or the imagination to write such beautiful hymns for Jesus. And then what she said, which touched me very deeply, she said, ”When I get to heaven and my eyesight is completely restored, the first face that I will see will be the face of my beloved Jesus.”Today folks, let us finish strong for the Lord.God bless you and goodbye.

This week, Pastor Ralph Castillo closed out our Summer sermon series, The Fifth Act, with an in depth look on the Apostle Paul's final remarks to the Ephesian Elders in Acts and a call to finish well. Throughout his ministry, Paul endured great suffering for the sake of Christ, undergoing intense persecution and opposition nearly everywhere he went. However, at the end of his life, he was able to confidently say that he finished the work set out for him. Paul's life challenges us to focus on finishing well, not in our own strength, but by anchoring ourselves in Christ, committing to submit to the Holy Spirit, and by loving what Jesus loves, His Church.
