This week, we began our new series, Encounter, by looking at Paul's final words in 2 Timothy 4 and the reality of "people problems." Even in the midst of betrayal, loneliness, and disappointment, Paul remains faithful to the call God placed on his life. Through his example, we're reminded that encounters with Jesus don't remove hardship, but they do reshape how we endure it. God meets us not only in the easy moments, but also in the tension, hurt, and perseverance of everyday life. Ultimately, the message calls us to stay faithful to Christ even when people let us down.
