We often find ourselves walking a tightrope between comfortable familiarity and dangerous complacency. This week, James Jeong takes us to Titus 2:6 and challenges us to examine whether our Christian walk has become merely routine rather than revolutionary. The call for young men to be 'sensible' or 'sober-minded' extends far beyond a single demographic—it speaks to all of us who risk losing our spiritual urgency in the midst of prosperous, comfortable lives. We're reminded that familiarity with church rhythms and biblical truths becomes harmful when it's not matched with active faith. The antidote? Three transformative principles: self-control that sacrifices personal desires for God's will, sober-mindedness that thinks deeply before speaking quickly, and self-restraint that considers how our choices impact those around us. In a culture offering endless comfort and ease, we're called to spiritual responsibility, to be people whose inner lives match our outer witness, and to pay the costly price of following Christ even when it's inconvenient, lonely, or demands we mortify what our flesh craves.
