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)
“Always learning” can sound like a virtue—but Paul warns Timothy that learning without obedience can become a trap. Scripture isn’t meant to be mastered; it’s meant to transform us. The journey matters, but only if it has a destination.

Day 357: On Walking in the North Atlantic (Hebrews 12:1-2)
What Hebrews 12 teaches us about endurance, alignment, and the power beneath our feet.

Day 356: New and Improved (Hebrews 8:13)
We love the latest and greatest—new phones, new tech, new upgrades. The writer of Hebrews uses that same logic to make a bold theological claim: in Christ, the old covenant has been made obsolete. Not discarded Scripture, but fulfilled promises. When the new arrives, the old no longer defines how we relate to God.

Between Two Advents (Revelation 20)
Revelation 20 speaks to Christians living in the “in-between”—after Christ’s first coming but before His return. In the tension of the middle, we find hope: Jesus wins, evil ends, and our future is secure.

Day 334: Christians, Christmas, and Corinth (1 Corinthians 8:1-4)
s a Christmas tree a harmless tradition, a redeemed symbol, or a leftover from pagan history? Paul’s counsel to the Corinthians offers surprising clarity. The issue isn’t the origin of the tree—it’s the posture of the heart. Christian freedom, guided by love, helps us keep Christ at the center of the season.

Day 330: John and Paul, the Beast, and the Man of Lawlessness (2 Thessalonians 2:7-9)
Paul and John describe the same enemy in different voices—Paul with pastoral clarity, John with apocalyptic imagery. Together they reveal a recurring pattern of deception already at work in the world and point us to the same hope: Christ will expose evil and overcome it with a word.
