Day 351: No Eulogy for Mr. Phillips (Philippians 3:8-9)
What does it mean to live a life so centered on Christ that even your funeral points away from you? A pastor reflects on a faithful church member whose final request—“No eulogy. Keep it about Jesus.”—embodied Paul’s words in Philippians: counting everything as loss compared to knowing Christ.

Day 345: Made Known to All Nations (Romans 16:25-27)
Paul ends Romans with a roll call, not a rulebook. The obedience of faith doesn’t terminate in ideas—it creates a community. And when the curtain closes on Paul’s greatest letter, the stage is full.

Day 358: Always Learning, Never Arriving (2 Timothy 3:7)

Day 330: What to Make of Mars Hill? (Acts 17:18-34)
Paul’s sermon on Mars Hill is often celebrated as a master class in cultural engagement.

Acts 17 reminds us that contextualization matters—but only Jesus saves.

Day 328: How to Read Galatians
Galatians isn’t a polite theological essay—it’s a pastoral emergency. Paul writes with fire in his pen because the churches he planted are trading grace for performance.
