A desire for the destination keeps us going on our journey, even when it gets difficult. This week’s episode draws from the letters of Peter, who encourages us to resist temptations, even amidst suffering, because our hope is permanent and eternal. The disciple’s journey leads us to a renewed and transformed creation.

This is the Week 5 introduction, ”Reaching for the Summit,” from the Spring Training journal, which you can download for free at firstdallas.org/springtraining. Our thanks to Davin Hutchinson, our Associate Student Minister of Worship, who served as the reader for this podcast.
