Title: Running the Race
Date: August 24, 2025
Passage: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 How do we become the person God created us to be? In this message, Pastor Jarrod Stotmeister unpacks Paul’s analogy of running a race from 1 Corinthians 9:24-27. Discover the importance of discipline, focus, and perseverance in pursuing God’s purpose for your life with eternal rewards in view. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
