Peter, and several others, fish throughout the night and catch nothing. From the beach, Jesus tells them to lower their nets once again, and they come up with 153 fish. Peter jumps in and swims to see Jesus. The rest of the men also hurry back to the shore, and they all enjoy breakfast with Him. Jesus emphatically instructs Peter to show love for Him by tending His sheep, which is a reference to Christ's followers. Peter, along with all the Apostles, would suffer, even to death, as they devote the rest of their lives to following Jesus. The author of this letter is John, who is one of the Apostles with Jesus on that beach.  Jesus is the Son of God. He had just risen from the dead, and He was about to ascend into heaven. And yet, he took the time to visit disciples on the beach and have breakfast with them. He shared with them what He expected of them and what troubles would soon come. Our Savior is infinitely greater and more important than His followers, and yet He devotes time to them. He sits and eats with them. He shows great patience with them. This is our Lord, and this is how much He loves each one of us. What He asks in return is simple: love Him, help His people, and follow Him in whatever direction He leads us.  Great God of heaven, we have read the words of the Apostle John, an eyewitness to the life of Jesus, and we believe His testimony. From this letter, You have shown us that Jesus is Your Son, that He is both powerful and kind, and that He is worthy to be followed. He cares for us, and He has an important mission for our lives. Help us to know our mission, and to engage in it with the people You put in our path. Make us fishers of men and teach us how to help tend Your Son's sheep.   Thought Questions: -       Jesus told Peter three times to “tend My sheep.” How has the good Shepherd challenged us to take care of His sheep until He returns? -       How should your relationship with Jesus resemble sitting with Him at breakfast and being told by Him how to love and serve Him today? -       John could have written many more things about Jesus. But why did He write this gospel, and what does it teach you about Christ?

Peter cuts off a soldier's ear, but Jesus replaces it and goes with the soldiers peacefully. Peter and John follow closely behind as Jesus is taken before Annas, and then Caiaphas, the high priest that year. Peter is then questioned concerning Jesus, and he denies Him three times. The Jewish priests lead Jesus to Pilate since they need Roman approval to put Him to death. Pilate asks Jesus if He is the King of the Jews. Jesus responds by stating that His kingdom is not of this world. Ultimately, Pilate sees no guilt in Jesus. He asks the Jews if he should release Him, but they demand that a convicted robber be released instead.  There is an incredible calmness in Jesus as the time of His death approaches. When Peter injures a soldier, Jesus heals the man. When soldiers seek to arrest Him, Jesus simply asks that His followers be left alone. When questioned by the Jewish leaders, He answers by stating that He has kept no secrets in His ministry. As Pilate berates Him with questions, He answers with peaceable, spiritual, truthful answers. Meanwhile, Peter denies Him, and most of the Apostles are nowhere to be found. Our Savior is at peace with His purpose and with the sacrifice He would offer for the world. Peter and the Apostles became much more like Jesus after the resurrection. This should be our goal as well.  Gracious Lord, thank You for Jesus. His confidence and calmness establish Him as a King we are privileged to follow. Even in the fires of persecution, He was focused and holy. He answered even His most vicious accusers with dignity. Lord, teach us how to be more like Your Son. We all falter at times, resembling Peter's fear and doubt. Father, we plead for Your mercy and ask You to humble us and make us more devoted students of Jesus. His resolve to accomplish Your work has brought blessings to us all. Lead us to be more like our Savior.   Thought Questions: -       Why did Peter lash out at the soldier? Can outbursts and quick reactions be a symptom of a faith that needs some work? -       What are situations in your life where you need to have calm, confident responses like Jesus did throughout this chapter? -       Pilate asks a fateful question: “What is truth?” Is Jesus the answer to that question for you, and what does He mean in your life?

Jesus hears that Lazarus is sick and informs His disciples that this illness will bring glory to God. Jesus delays His trip to Bethany, knowing that Lazarus will die and then be raised from the dead. As He approaches the village, Jesus tells Martha her brother will rise again. Jesus follows this by announcing Himself as “the resurrection and the life.” He then calls for Mary and weeps as he sees her despair over her brother's death. Jesus then raises Lazarus from the tomb. This results in more people believing in Jesus. The Jewish leaders, however, are confounded on how to handle Jesus. By the prophecy of high priest Caiaphas, they plan to put Him to death.  John's Gospel includes seven miracles from Jesus' ministry. No miracle of Jesus is greater than raising Lazarus from the dead. This proves His power over life and death. His death and resurrection would also confirm this power. We can live by faith, without fear of death, knowing that Christ will revive us again and give us eternal life. Even though death has no power over Him, Jesus still weeps at the sorrow of people who mourn their loss. Our Savior's miraculous might does not diminish His compassion for His people. Sadly, the Jewish leaders would not believe in the saving power of Jesus, as they wanted lives free of His influence. We must never give in to such a devastating decision.    Benevolent Father, You always provide what we need and bless us with Your mercy. We trust You in life, but Father, we pray to also do so in the face of death. We thank You for the ministry of Jesus and the scope of His power. Of all that He has done, we treasure most His victory over death. Since He raised Lazarus from the grave, we know that death is not the end for us. Help us to take comfort in this during our lives, but also that we keep the faith through to the end, knowing eternity is coming.  Thought Questions: -       Jesus loved Lazarus and his family. And yet, Jesus allowed him to die. Why? And how can that bring comfort to us in times of loss? -       Do you have faith that a believer “will live even if he dies”? How does eternal life in Christ shape the way you make daily decisions? -       Jewish leaders wanted to kill Jesus because they feared Rome's involvement. How is faith impossible if you fear worldly forces?

Sermon Summary:On Palm Sunday, we explored the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem from John 12:12-19. This pivotal event, recorded in all four gospels, reveals profound truths about our hope and expectations. As Jesus entered Jerusalem during Passover, the city was bursting with Jews who had traveled there to celebrate. The crowds welcomed him with palm branches (symbols of national victory) and shouts of "Hosanna!" (meaning "save us now"), revealing their hope for a nationalist Messiah who would overthrow Roman rule.However, Jesus intentionally chose to ride a young donkey, fulfilling Zechariah's prophecy about a humble king who would bring peace to all nations. This deliberate choice contradicted the crowd's nationalistic expectations. While they wanted a warrior-king like David, Jesus was demonstrating that his kingdom transcended national boundaries.We highlighted two key lessons from this passage. First, nationalism doesn't belong in the church. When we confuse patriotism with our faith or believe our hope comes from human leaders rather than Christ, we risk missing God's work among us. Our Savior doesn't reside in government buildings but is often found among the marginalized.Second, we must be vigilant not to miss God's presence right before us. The religious leaders of Jesus' day knew Scripture intimately yet failed to recognize God incarnate walking among them. In Luke's account, Jesus weeps over Jerusalem because they "did not recognize the time of God's coming."As we approach Easter, we should examine where we're placing our hope—in finances, family, nation, or the living God? We're challenged to tangibly meet a neighbor's needs this week, following Jesus' example of service and remaining attentive to how God is moving in our midst today.

The Clockwork Defamation of Jesus and Mary is on Schedule.  Why do the corporate media regularly slime Our Savior and His Mother with libels and blasphemy around Christmas, and during the season of Lent prior to Easter? In today's study we document numerous examples of lies and defamation heaped on Jesus and Mary in the pages of the NY Times, the New Yorker magazine, the Washington Post and Hollywood. Anti-Christian defamation, though presented under the guise of academic research is often indistinguishable from hate speech. Christians have the human right to be free of defamation.

"You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy." Psalm 30:11 Are you feeling broken and weighed down by life's struggles? Remember that our identity in Christ is the cornerstone of healing and restoration. We unlock the door to true wholeness when we embrace who we are in Him. As 2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” This transformation is not just a change; it's a complete renewal of our spirit. "When Christ breathes life into our wounds, restoration becomes an anthem of renewal." This powerful quote speaks to the heart of what it means to experience healing. In moments of despair, let us cling to Psalm 147:3, which assures us that “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” With every tear we shed, God gathers our pain and begins His divine work of restoration. Isaiah 61:3 says, "To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his glory. "Heal and Renew in Christ" is not just a phrase but a promise. Our Savior desires to mend every broken piece within us. When we surrender our pain to Him, we allow His love to fill the voids. Romans 8:28 encourages us that “in all things, God works for the good of those who love him.” Trust that even in your suffering, there is purpose and a path toward healing. As we journey through life circumstances, we must remember that we are never alone. God walks with us, guiding us toward wholeness. Let us take refuge in His word, which serves as a balm for our souls because we can find comfort and strength in His presence. Philippians 4:7 says, “The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Amen. Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, we thank You for the promise of healing and restoration. Help us to embrace our identity in Christ and to trust in Your plans for our lives. May Your love envelop us and transform our brokenness into beauty. Guide us on this journey toward wholeness, and remind us that with You, all things are possible. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

The garden of Gethsemane reveals encouraging truths about suffering that can transform how Christians navigate their own pain. Two profound insights lie hidden in this familiar passage: Jesus knows the solution before we even encounter the problem, and God deliberately preserved the details of Jesus' suffering so we would know our pain is never foreign to him.• Jesus went to pray "as was his custom" even facing his darkest hour• An angel strengthened Jesus, yet he remained in agony• Supernatural support from God doesn't always end our difficulties but enables us to endure them• Five elements of a (non-exhaustive) Christian doctrine of suffering: it's promised, unites us with Christ, equips us to comfort others, deepens our dependence on God, and produces spiritual growth• Suffering has purpose—it produces endurance, character, and hope• Jesus moved from confidence to conflict and back to confidence again• Peter's denial was met not with rejection but with Jesus' gaze of love• God specially preserved the intimate details of Jesus' suffering that no disciple witnessed• Jesus understands our suffering firsthand—he has carried every grief and sorrow• Our Savior holds the fix before the failure ever occurs If you want to learn more about the MidTree story or connect with us, go to our website HERE or text us at 812-MID-TREE.

How does understanding the interconnected purposes of the sacrament, as presented in Doctrine & Covenants 27, deepen our appreciation for this sacred ordinance? In this episode Matthew O. Richardson, professor of Church history and doctrine, discusses several key themes and gospel principles related to the ordinance of the sacrament. He presents three specific purposes: remembering the past, specifically the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ; looking forward to future redemption; and providing safety and protection in the present. Further, he discusses the historical context and symbolism of the sacramental emblems and connects them to putting on the armor of God and illustrates its role in providing spiritual protection. In understanding the symbolism of these emblems, we can enhance our worship experience and foster a closer relationship with the Savior.     Publications:  “Sacramental Connections: Deliverance, Redemption, and Safety (Doctrine & Covenants 27)” originally published in You Shall Have My Word: Exploring the Text of the Doctrine and Covenants (Religious Studies Center, 2012)  “We Have Now Received the Atonement” in Shedding Light on the New Testament: Acts—Revelation (Religious Studies Center, 2009)  “The Savior's Love” in Our Savior's Love: Hope & Healing in Christ (Religious Studies Center, 2015)  “Losing the Sacred Perspective: Social Ethics and Character Development” in Moral Foundations: Standing Firm in a World of Shifting Values (Religious Studies Center, 2008)    Click here to learn more about Matthew O.

In this powerful episode of IGNITE Radio Live, we dive into seven pitfalls that keep us from true transformation, inspired by the Transfiguration of Christ.Too often, we think holiness is for someone else, that we need to "get it together" before God can work in us, or that prayer is about getting what we want rather than becoming who we are meant to be.

Title: Languaging in Hampton RoadsEpisode 14: Voices of Faith in Hampton RoadsHosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue SalaskyDate: March 5, 2025Length: 48:50Publication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx) of each monthIn this episode we interview several pastors, all first-generation immigrants, who minister to their flocks in the native language of their country of origin.The interviews are with Pastor Echo Lin from the Shanghai region of mainland China, who leads services in Mandarin at the more than 100-year-old independent First Chinese Baptist Church in Virginia Beach; Father Joseph Nguyen who ministers to two Catholic Vietnamese congregations, Our Lady of LaVang Catholic Church in Norfolk, and Our Lady of Vietnam Catholic Church in Hampton ; and with Luke Do, Senior Pastor of Peninsula Korean Baptist Church in Newport News.(We also talked to Pastor Trung Phan, leader of Hope Vietnamese Church in Annandale, Va. Time and geographical constraints meant we weren't able to include his interview; we will run it as bonus material at a future date.)From our interviews, we learned about the changing role of the church in each community, the importance of language for identity, the generational rifts as assimilation occurs -- and what the future of ethnic-centered churches might be as globalization and technology reduce differences.We did not address the use of traditional liturgical languages, such as Latin, Arabic, Hebrew, and Koine Greek, all of which are represented in Hampton Roads. Nor did we cover the multiple Spanish-speaking churches, by far the largest segment of non-English services in the region. Instead, we focused primarily on Asian-led churches that minister to their communities through the use of the vernacular. In talking to ministers at Korean, Vietnamese and Chinese churches we learned not only about immigration patterns in the region, but also the ealier history of colonization and missionary activity. We learned in many cases that faith was secondary to a sense of community and cultural belonging.Our interest in the topic was sparked by a sign for the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, Mehane Hiwot Abune Gebre Menfes Kidus, in the Park Place neighborhood of Norfolk . We learned that the Norfolk church, started in 2013, is part of one of the most ancient branches of Christianity, part of the Coptic tradition dating back to 300 AD. Priest Teshome Yohannes Feleke presides over a congregation of 200 drawn from throughout Hampton Roads. Services are in a combination of Ge'ez, the ancient liturgical language, and Amharic, Ethiopia's everyday language that evolved from it. (Plug in the church's name to find beautiful chanting on YouTube.) The church is celebrating its renovation with a grand re-opening on March 14/15.We also discovered Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Norge, which once held services in Norwegian. Today the language is no longer used, but the church is the proud possessor of a Norwegian Bible donated by Norway's royal family in 1939. We also learned that Norge is actually the name for Norway in Norwegian, a tribute to its original Scandinavian settlers at the turn of the 20th century!As you can gather, it's a very rich topic and we only scratched the surface of the Babel of languages used in worship in our Hampton Roads region.Please send your questions and feedback to languagingHR@gmail.com

EPISODE 455 | The 7 Keys to Overcoming TemptationTemptation is not just an obstacle—it's a battleground. This Sunday's Gospel places us in the heart of the desert, where Jesus, weakened from fasting, faces the full force of Satan's attack. If the Son of God Himself was tested, we must ask: Why does God allow temptation? What is its purpose? Is it simply a trap, or is it an opportunity—an invitation to grow stronger, to deepen our trust, to prove our love? The enemy's goal isn't just to make us sin—it's to keep us stagnant, discouraged, and disconnected from God. But Jesus doesn't just endure temptation—He overcomes it. And in doing so, He gives us the blueprint for victory. This week on IGNITE Radio Live, we break open The 7 Keys to Overcoming Temptation—practical, powerful strategies to fight back, stand firm, and come out stronger. Because the battle is real, but so is the victory. (⁠Guide Sheet⁠) We introduce IGNITE Lent: Enter Into the Heart of Our Savior, happening Thursday, March 20 at 6:30 PM at Our Lady of Lourdes.

Psalm 23:4, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me."The imagery in this verse is both vivid and profound, offering Christians a picture of God's presence amidst life's darkest moments. This verse has been a source of comfort to believers throughout the ages, reminding us that God's presence transforms even the darkest valleys of life, into places of safety and peace.Spurgeon writes: "Death in its substance has been removed, and only the shadow of it remains. Nobody is afraid of a shadow, for a shadow cannot stop a man's pathway even for a moment. The shadow of a dog cannot bite;the shadow of a sword cannot kill;the shadow of death cannot destroy us." Spurgeon's words compel us to view the "valley of the shadow of death" not as a place of despair, but as a path we tread under the Shepherd's watchful eye and care.This perspective echoes the words of Puritan Richard Baxter, who said, "Our Savior has sanctified all conditions of life and death to us, so that we may walk with Him through the darkest passage, as cheerfully as in the most prosperous ways." Baxter's insight reinforces the reality that Christ's presence redeems and sanctifies even the deepest trials.David's declaration, "I will fear no evil, for You are with me," is founded on his view of God's Omnipresence and Omnipotence.The Puritan Thomas Watson wrote: "Where reason cannot wade, faith must swim." Faith enables us to see that the Shepherd's protection is stronger than any evil that might surround us. When the Good Shepherd is near, fear flees.The rod and staff symbolize God's protection and

2/9/25 message from Pastor Ralph Royea What was Jesus' worst day? Was it when Judas dipped the bread with Him? Was it when in the garden when He wept and sweated tears of blood or when the disciples couldn't last one hour praying with Him? Was it the kiss of a traitor, the denial of a friend, or the wounds of an enemy? Was it the public humiliation of that walk to Calvary or nails that met Him there? Was it the look of pain in His Mary's eye, the enemy's disgusting sign, or our Savior's forgiving and final cry on the day He died? My contention is that His worst day has yet to come. We look forward to our Savior's return and I am sure He looks forward to His bride, yet on that day, Our Savior becomes Judge and the time of being saved by grace through faith expires. This day may be His worst. For the wise, we shall enter into His rest and hear well done, yet for others, depart from me you workers of iniquity, or worse yet, I never knew you. All of creation, on that coming day, will bow and be judged. Let us be those who know and proclaim His beautiful name, to all who will hear, let us forfeit our fear, win the lost with His love that draws near, that we might limit His tears on the day He appears. We have work to do with each breath that is left.

Order of Service: - Prelude: "If Thou Be Near," by J.S. Bach - Responsive Reading: P: In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Gen. 1:1 C: Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.” Gen. 1:26-28 In His infinite wisdom, God has chosen to create the human race with specific gender distinctions and the ability to procreate by the gift of sexual intimacy. He has created a unique complimentary nature to the roles of men and women. As Dr. Martin Luther writes, “God established marriage as the first of all institutions, and with it in view He did not create man and woman to be like each other.” Our human sexuality is by God's design. The chromosomal make-up of man and woman is part of this order from God. The believer acknowledges this: He has given me my body and soul, eyes, ears and all my members, my reason and all my senses, and still preserves them. Luther's Small Catechism Likewise, marriage between man and woman is not a human invention. It is a gift from God which He has stamped into nature itself, and has been recognized and practiced throughout time in all lands and cultures. All of society rests upon the foundation of marriage in God's order. He who finds a wife finds what is good, and receives favor from the Lord. Prov. 18:22 Due to the Fall into Sin by our first parents, marriage and human sexuality suffered under the curse of sin, which continues to plague mankind today. Satan recognizes the great significance of God's design for marriage for both the temporal and spiritual kingdoms. He continues to rage against it, knowing that when he spoils marriage, he undermines all order of society. In order to protect and preserve this gift, God has inscribed the sixth commandment on the hearts of all people: You shall not commit adultery. Ex. 20:14 We should fear and love God so that we lead a chaste and decent life in word and deed, and that husband and wife should love and honor the other. Luther's Small Catechism Because of the corruption of our human nature, Man continues to pervert the wonderful gift of human sexuality in a variety of ways: fornication, adultery, the use of pornography, co-habitation outside of marriage, homosexuality and living under the pretense of another gender. Though our culture may give approval to such sin, God's Word remains steadfast: Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. Heb. 13:4 Jesus said, “I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Matt. 5:28 Paul explains that, due to man's depravity in sin, “God gave men over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another… their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.” Rom. 1 However, God chose not to throw humanity aside forever. Despite man's fallen condition, God in His mercy sent His Son to redeem humanity back to Himself. By His sacrifice on the cross, God Himself took the punishment for all sin, granting us full forgiveness and grace through Christ. As Isaiah writes, “The Lord laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” Our Savior used the setting of the wedding at Cana to enact His first public miracle displaying His divine nature. God continues to bless marriage and through this institution provides the gifts of mutual love, companionship, the procreation of children, and a way of restraint for the sins of lust. Along with marriage He has established the Christian home as Heaven's embassy for handing down the true faith from one generation to the next. - Hymn 190 - O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall: vv. 1, 2, 3 - Responsive Reading: Through the gift of faith in Christ, God the Holy Ghost claims the heart, mind and body of those He has called into the Kingdom of Light, and sets them apart from the unbelieving world. By the “washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Ghost,” we have been claimed by God as His own dear children through Christ. Paul encourages the Christian to now live as a redeemed child of God, when he writes, “Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body. Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.” 1 Cor. 6:18-20 Even to those who once were previously living in such sins, St. Paul writes, “But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Cor. 6:9 By faith we have now been made members of the flock of the Good Shepherd, who says, “My sheep hear My voice, I know them and they follow Me, and I give them eternal life.” It has been challenging for believers of all time to live in a culture and society that embraces and encourages sin, which poses a great danger to our faith. God desires that we use our influence not to encourage sin, but rather to help those who are trapped in it to turn to God in repentance and be restored by His grace, through a spirit of humility and Christian love. I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will. Rom. 12:1-2 * Prayer Let us pray: Almighty God, who has created man and woman, and joins them together in marriage, thereby symbolizing the mystery of the union between Your Son, Jesus Christ, and His bride, the Church; we humbly pray: Do not let this blessed work and ordinance be set aside and brought to nothing in our day, but graciously protect and preserve it. Especially we ask that your blessing would rest upon those who are united at Your altar. So rule them by Your Holy Spirit that they may live together to Your glory and their own welfare in this life, and in the Life which is to come. Keep all of us in Your grace, and finally bring us to our eternal home, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. - Hymn 190 - O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall: vv. 4, 5 - Blessing - Postlude: "La Réjouissance" by G.F.

I believe that every heart-longing you have, or think you have, every ache that arises when you see something or someone that you desire; when you dream of more success, or  wake up hoping you are somehow more attractive, when you drive by a bigger house and say I wish; when you say what you say or do what you do and then lookaround hoping someone noticed...and perhaps will even applaud; what your soul truly longs for is Jesus.We cannot prepare for Christmas, truly prepare if don't fix our eyes and our hearts on Jesus. Nothing compares to the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus, Paul wrote.  He is the resurrection and the life, light of the world, Our Savior and King. The greatness of Christianity is Christ. The reward of following Jesus is Jesus. And so if we are going to truly prep for Christmas, we should ask and settle the question, "Jesus are you the one?"

It's so easy to become distracted and to turn our eyes to other things. Whether it's other people, mistakes or failures, or simply the cares of life, we are tempted to look away from Jesus. We don't usually do this intentionally, we just become distracted.Main Points:1. The scripture likens the Christian life to a race that is to be finished. We must keep our eyes on Jesus. It's the only way we will finish this race. We must not become distracted and lose our focus. 2. We cannot run this race aimlessly. We cannot run in a casual, pointless way. Our Savior has marked out this race for us. We keep our eyes on Jesus and off of the world as we stay in His Word, in worship, and prayer. We stay focused on Jesus as we seek to do His will.3. Where is your focus today? Is it others? Is it on your problems? Is it on the cares of life? Let's intentionally turn our eyes on Jesus, the one who can give us the strength to finish our race.Today's Scripture Verses:Hebrews 12:1-2 - “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus.”Colossians 3:1 - Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
