2 Timothy 1:1-18 | Ps. Jeff SusilaOne thing: Don't be ashamed to guard the Gospel that our Lord Jesus has entrusted to us.Sermon outline: I. Remember your Gospel story (v. 1-7)II. Don't be ashamed of the Gospel (v. 8-12)III. Guard the Gospel (v. 13-18)

Main Idea: The good fight of the faith is waged in a godly life that is taking hold of eternal life, with eyes set on the God of life. 1. Fight the good fight… in godly conduct (vv. 11-12) The components of godliness in the good fight: Flee worldly pursuits - v. 11a Pursue godliness - v. 11b Guard the faith - v. 12a Take hold of eternal life - v. 12b Hebrews 10:32-34 Hebrews 11:13-16 2. Fight the good fight… for the church's witness (v. 13-15a) 3. Fight the good fight… fueled by the glory of God (vv. 15b-16) "[These] splendid titles are here employed in exalting the princely authority of God, in order that the brilliancy of the princes of this world may not dazzle our eyes… When good men see that the wicked are puffed up with prosperity, they are sometimes cast down; and therefore Paul, for the purpose of withdrawing the eyes of the godly from that transitory splendour, ascribes to God alone “blessedness, principality, and kingly power.” (John Calvin) Response: Make the good confession today (see Rom. 10:9) Flee from sin with the help of the church (see 2 Tim. 2:22) Pursue godliness in the church Know and defend sound doctrine in the church Strengthen your faith in order to take hold of eternal life (see Rom. 10:17) Know God truly. Study Him in order to love Him more. (6:15-16)

Join Lisa and Laura as they wrap up their journey through Passionate Discipleship, a nine-week Bible study series. Deepen your faith this Easter season as we unpack Paul's wisdom to his closest friend, Timothy, reflecting on how we can apply it today. Grow in personal holiness, as we recognize the importance of our God-given mission to reach and raise the next generation. On today's final episode of the series, Lisa and Laura discuss Lesson 9, Talk 9, titled “Fighting the Good Fight.” Hear about the personal obstacles they face in running the race, as well as helpful tips to persevere when we feel like giving up. This is a must-listen for women learning to live as disciples of Christ! Open your Heart to our key Scripture. 2 Timothy 4:7–8: I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. From now on there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day. Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode. 2 Timothy 1:5: I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you. 2 Timothy 1:6: For this reason I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you. 2 Timothy 1:7: For God did not give us a spirit of timidity but a spirit of power and love and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:13–14: Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus; guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us. 2 Timothy 2:1–2: You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. 2 Timothy 3:2–5,7: For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, inhuman, implacable, slanderers, profligates, fierce, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding the form of religion but denying the power of it. Who will listen to anybody and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 4:3–4: For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander into myths. Matthew 13:33: The Kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman took and hid three measures of meal, till it was all leavened. 2 Timothy 3:12,14–15: Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it. And how from childhood you have been acquainted with the Sacred Writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. Isaiah 40:41: But they who hope in the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.  Invite Him in with this episode's questions for reflection. Did I love well today? Who did God place in my path? Did I just tolerate her? Did I slow down for her? Was I distracted in my interactions, or was I present? Show mentions.

From church choir in Eatonville, Florida, to becoming the first Black Phantom on Broadway, Norm Lewis opens up about his unique path to the stage. He shares how early dreams of a tennis career turned into a life in music and theatre, and the surprising way a cruise ship job launched it all.

We also discuss his current role in Ceremonies in Dark Old Men, a rarely produced Off-Broadway play making a powerful return. Norm dives into the emotional depth of playing a character reckoning with failure and legacy, and how the story echoes his own questions about longevity, identity, and purpose in the industry. Plus, we talk about the importance of representation, founding Black Theatre United, and why mentorship is such a vital part of his mission today. Norm Lewis is a Tony, Emmy, and SAG Award-nominated performer known for his Broadway roles in The Phantom of the Opera, Porgy and Bess, Sweeney Todd, Les Misérables, Once on This Island, and Chicken and Biscuits.

In this episode, we talk to Rutger Bregman. You might remember the Dutch historian and author from a 2019 appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos, which went viral after he called out millionaires and billionaires for tax avoidance. He joins us to talk about everything from the loss of America's moral authority after the re-election of Donald Trump, to why we need more ordinary people speaking up and defending principles of human decency. This week's Good Weekend features an extract from Bregman’s new book, Moral Ambition, examining our monstrous and long-running cruelty to animals. Hosting the conversation – which also delves into the corrosiveness of misogynistic male influencers, as well as the role of “realistic idealism” in improving our society's moral trajectory – is Good Weekend acting editor Greg Callaghan.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Hollywood’s latest changing of the guards, Jeremy Zimmer has announced that he will be shifting from his post as CEO of United Talent Agency to executive board member. What’s behind the shuffle?  Plus, longtime Warner Bros partner, Village Roadshow recently filed for bankruptcy — even as arbitration continues over alleged financial losses due to the WB’s decision to release the Village Roadshow backed The Matrix Resurrections (2021) simultaneously in movie theaters and on Max. Kim Masters and Matt Belloni are here to unpack.   Masters also speaks to documentarian Alex Gibney about his mysterious new HBO project — The Dark Money Game. Gibney shares some big news about a change within Jigsaw (his production company). Plus, he reveals a very busy slate that includes projects on college culture wars, Luigi Mangione, and an ever-expanding documentary series about Elon Musk.   

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by JOE TALBOT of IDLES for an encore episode!An in person episode for this follow up appearance, as the first time round was a Zoom-er in the heat of the lockdown times. So much has changed, for the band, for Joe himself, and the world on the whole. The last 5 years or so has been a cyclone of all sorts, and living through it while keeping a cool and level head is an insurmountable goal. Thankfully creation and art and music are not in short supply, no matter what some of the highers might want us to think, and Joe is proof of that. A wide ranging chat but with an anchor of sorts, which addresses many heavy hitting subjects including class, poverty, politics, socials, reading, mental health, touring, being in a band in general and of course, tinned fish. The amount of times I find myself typing that, good god.
