Cumi Cheree

In this episode, we draw inspiration from 1 Corinthians 9:24 and Hebrews 12:1-2, discussing the race of faith every Christian is commissioned to run, knowing there is a great reward at the end for those who endure.  We emphasize the need to trust in God, lay aside distractions and sins, and fix our eyes on Jesus; while warning against comparison and selfishness. We highlight perseverance, preparation, and the Holy Spirit's role during our race. We encourage you to run your best race, represent God in all aspects of life, and strive to live according to His will, reminding you that Jesus is the perfecter of our faith.
