In this episode of the Confidence in God podcast, host Julie McGhghy explores the profound message behind the Apostle Paul’s words in Philippians 3:12—what it means to be “apprehended by Christ” and how we can pursue God’s unique purpose for our lives. Julie unpacks Paul’s journey from being apprehended by God to actively seeking and fulfilling his divine calling, and she encourages listeners to reflect on their own motivations for serving God. Through practical insights and personal stories, you’ll discover how to confidently walk in faith, embrace God’s will, and press toward the high calling in Christ Jesus. Tune in for inspiration, biblical wisdom, and actionable steps to deepen your relationship with God and live out your purpose with confidence.
