First Baptist Church Thomson, Ga

In this message from 2 Timothy 4:1–5, we are challenged to “Stand Up and Fulfill Your Ministry.” Paul’s final charge to Timothy reminds us that every believer has a calling from God, and our ministry matters in light of Christ’s judgment, His coming, and His kingdom. We are called to relay God’s Word faithfully, to proclaim it in every season, to use it to correct, rebuke, and encourage with patience and love. In a world drifting from truth, we must shine the light of the Gospel even brighter, exercising self-control, enduring hardships, and doing the work of an evangelist. This is how we run our race to the finish and fulfill the unique ministry God has entrusted to each of us.
