About this listen

 Running the Race: The Christian's Call to Perseverance explores the powerful athletic metaphor used by the Apostle Paul to describe the Christian life. Discover what it truly means to persevere in faith and why some believers fail to finish their spiritual race. This message unpacks four essential strategies for running your spiritual marathon effectively: exercising self-control in all areas of life, maintaining a clear vision of the eternal prize, living with intentional purpose, and disciplining your greatest opponent—your own sinful nature. Learn how to reconcile the biblical teachings that true believers cannot lose their salvation while also being warned to persevere to the end. Whether you're struggling with spiritual discipline, feeling aimless in your faith journey, or battling persistent sin, this message offers practical guidance for running in such a way as to obtain the prize. Perfect for Christians seeking to deepen their spiritual discipline, those questioning their salvation, new believers learning the fundamentals of faith, or anyone interested in understanding biblical perseverance.
