In this episode of Serving Jesus Christ, Pastor Swanson shares an inspirational Sunday message titled,

On A Quest For The Prize!

In this message, he considers the question of. . .

"What is the point of being a Christian?"

He does so against the backdrop of the life of the Apostle Paul.

Paul strives towards the goal of knowing Jesus Christ with everything that he has.

Pastor Swanson also asks the question: Is this the same quest that we are all on?

How committed are we?

Paul wanted to reach his full potential for Jesus. . . for the glory of God.

We all need to daily ask the Lord to help us keep our eyes on the goal. We have a high calling in Christ. If we faithfully run for the prize we will receive an eternal crown. . . a crown signifying that we are one of the eternal residents of heaven. . . a son or daughter of God most high. . .and we will enjoy the privilege of living in the presence of our Lord.

Are we completely and singularly focused on Jesus Christ?
