But after encountering Jesus, everything changed. What once seemed valuable… he now considered loss.Why?Because he discovered something greater.The surpassing worth of knowing Christ.In this passage, Paul reminds us that the Christian life is not about perfection—it’s about direction. It’s about pressing on… moving forward… and pursuing Christ above everything else.This episode invites you to ask an important question:What are you chasing?Success? Comfort? Recognition?Or Christ?Because when you truly encounter Him, your priorities begin to shift… your perspective begins to change… and your life begins to reflect what matters most.That’s the Jesus Effect.In the next episode, we’ll step into Philippians chapter 4 and explore the peace of God that guards our hearts and minds—even in the middle of life’s challenges.Prayer requests: [email protected] to more episodes at thejesuseffectpodcast.comFollow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and all major platforms.New episodes weekly Scripture-rooted | Conversational | EncouragingStay rooted in faith - keep your eyes on Jesus and be the light wherever you go.And remember - when you encounter Him, you experience change. This is The Jesus Effect.This episode of The Jesus Effect was written and hosted by me, Steve McLane.If this message touched your heart, please consider sharing it.You can listen to more at thejesuseffectpodcast.com or follow us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Facebook, and others.Until next time — stay rooted in faith and be the light.And remember, when you encounter Him - you experience change.© 2025 The Jesus Effect Podcast.
