Episode 34: Run the Race – Living with Purpose, Finishing with Faith
Episode 34: Run the Race – Living with Purpose, Finishing with Faith In this episode of Growing in Grace, Matt and Pastor Brandon dive into Paul’s farewell to the Ephesian elders in Acts 20—a passage rich with urgency, humility, and purpose. Using the metaphor of running a race, Paul reflects on what it means to live a faithful life, even when the journey is hard. Together, they unpack five key traits of a life well lived: commitment to community, humility, gospel-centeredness, sensitivity to the Spirit, and living for a purpose beyond self. They also explore how modern believers—whether parents, singles, students, or retirees—can stay on mission when comfort, distraction, or discouragement tempts us to slow down or step off the track. Whether you’re in a strong stride or feel like you’ve drifted to the sidelines, this episode is a timely encouragement: it’s never too late to enter the race, and it’s always worth it to finish well.
