Do you ever struggle to let go of your past? Whether it’s mistakes, regrets, or even successes, dwelling on the past can hinder your growth and keep you from moving forward. In this episode, Stephen Davey unpacks Paul’s powerful metaphor of running a race in Philippians 3. Paul admits he hasn’t “arrived” but refuses to quit, pressing on toward the ultimate prize—the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Stephen highlights five essential attitudes for running life’s race well: honesty about your current spiritual state, determination to keep pressing on, a single-minded focus on Christ, letting go of past baggage, and keeping your eyes on the eternal prize. Using vivid illustrations and biblical insights, this message offers practical wisdom to help you navigate life’s challenges, embrace grace, and move forward with confidence.

If you’ve ever felt weighed down by past mistakes or distracted by life’s pressures, this episode will encourage you to fix your eyes on Christ and find freedom in His grace. Tune in to discover how to run life’s race with endurance and joy, knowing that the ultimate prize is the presence of your Savior.
