Join Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Wendy Korbusieski as they explore Paul's urgent instruction to Timothy about fleeing temptation while actively pursuing godly virtues, examining last days deceptions in modern culture, and celebrating the sufficiency of Scripture.

Scripture Focus: 2 Timothy 2-3 - Paul instructs Timothy to flee youthful passions, endure last days challenges, and remain grounded in God's inspired Word.

In This Episode:

• The dual nature of spiritual maturity: excluding sin and including righteousness
• Why you can't just stop bad habits without replacing them with godly pursuits
• The 19 signs of last days deceptions appearing in today's church culture
• "Ever learning but never coming to the knowledge of the truth" in our information age
• All Scripture as God-breathed and sufficient for equipping believers

Key Quote: "Holiness requires avoiding temptation and chasing Christlike values. You can't just preach one way or the other, because either they'll end up empty handed or they'll end up not being able to fill their hands with anything because they're still full of things they should have let go of."
