Sermon - Ryan McCoy - Eyes on the Prize [1 Corinthians 9:24-27]
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 we are called to run our races in such a way to get a prize.
1 - Prepare
Corinthians were having a problem with their freedom in Christ- they heard about love and grace, but didn't understand that because of that grace, love, and freedom, we were meant to give up our freedoms to love and serve others. The race of the gospel is the only race that matters.
2 - Participate
Show up to run. Put some miles on your tires. Get in the race like your life depends on it. We are not bystanders. Run the gospel race and not the "me" race.
3 - Prevail
We run for a crown that will last forever. Jesus gives the gift of life, love, peace, and presence. The race is worth it.
