In this powerful and emotional episode, we explore the final words of the apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 4, as he encourages Timothy—and all of us—to stay faithful to God’s calling. Facing imminent death, Paul’s priority is clear: preach the Word of God. In a time when people seek messages that suit their desires rather than sound doctrine, Paul charges Timothy to remain steadfast in his preaching, no matter the cost. He draws on powerful imagery of a herald delivering the King’s message, reminding Timothy that the pastor’s role is to faithfully communicate God’s truth, whether it’s welcomed or resisted.
We also hear the inspiring story of William Tyndale, a man who followed Paul’s example and devoted his life to translating the Bible into English so that even the common person could read and understand it. Like Paul, Tyndale paid the ultimate price, dying for his commitment to Scripture. But both men left behind legacies of faithfulness that continue to impact the world today.
This episode will challenge you to consider your own commitment to the truth of God’s Word. Are you standing firm, or are you tempted to compromise? As Paul nears the end of his race, he reminds Timothy—and us—that the battle is worth it, the race is winnable, and the reward is eternal. Tune in for a timeless call to preach, teach, and live out the truth with unwavering conviction.
