from Hope Springs Eternal · host Alan Bentrup
In this sermon, we reflect on Paul’s final words to Timothy, a charge to keep preaching the Gospel in every season.From an old Boston church that still proclaims the Gospel after centuries of change to Paul’s prison cell awaiting execution, this message reminds us that the world may change, but the Word still works.We all crave words that make us feel strong or self-sufficient. But Paul warns against “itching ears” that chase comfort instead of truth. The Gospel is not meant to tickle us. It is meant to heal us. It is the Good News that Jesus sees you, Jesus loves you, and Jesus is for you.
