"For me, to live is Christ, to die is gain" is one of the most challenging verses in all of the Bible and also a glimpse into how Paul lived his life. This perspective allowed him to be focused on the gospel and gave him the strength to endure suffering. Is this perspective possible for us to have? If so, what difference would it make in us and in our church? Let us be both encouraged and challenged by what we are living for and how we view death.
