This past Sunday, we celebrated the powerful legacy of faith passed down through generations. Just like young Timothy, who learned Scripture from his grandmother Lois and mother Eunice, our children can know and follow Christ even in our challenging culture—through the unchanging truth of God's Word.

The greatest gift we can give the next generation isn't a program or a strategy—it's faithful discipleship lived out in ordinary moments. From childhood Bible reading to navigating life's hardships together, faith is caught as much as it's taught. Timothy grew up in a pagan culture, in an imperfect family, yet became a faithful man of God because people poured Scripture into his life.

Parents and grandparents, you are the primary disciples of your children. Church family, we walk alongside them. Together, we point the next generation to Jesus—not through perfection, but through faithful presence, open Bibles, and hearts surrendered to Christ. The Scripture that shaped Timothy still works today. Never give up. Keep praying. Keep pointing them to Jesus.

Why are you on planet Earth? What would those who watch your life every day say is the reason you get out of bed each morning?

This Sunday, we explored Colossians 4:2-6 and discovered a powerful truth: Your life mission is for others to see and hear always only Jesus from you. Paul didn't ask for prayers to escape prison—he asked for prayers that God would open doors for the gospel right where he was, in chains. He wanted to keep making Jesus known with clarity, no matter the cost.

We're called to pray missionally—perseveringly, alertly, and thankfully—for the gospel to go forth globally and locally. But prayer isn't enough. We must also live missionally through wise living and gracious speech that provokes gospel conversations. Our current cultural moment isn't just darkness—it's the ideal opportunity to let our light shine brightly for Christ.

The world's greatest problem is spiritual lostness, and we have the only answer: Jesus. Wherever He leads, will you go?
