Labor Day Weekend: Finish

from The Orchard Church Hosted by The Orchard Church

Do you remember anything from the 2002 Winter Olympics? In the last lap of the 1000 Meter Small Track Speed Skate event something very unusual happened that became one of the greatest moments in Olympic sports history. Entering the final lap of the race, Australian racer Stephen Bradbury trailed far off the pace in last place. On the final turn, the Chinese racer slipped, knocking the American racer down. The Korean racer fell, tripping the Canadian racer. Steven Bradbury skates across the finish line untouched, winning the Winter Olympic gold medal for the first time in Australia’s history. He won the gold simply because he finished the race. It seems that many of us today are so eager to quit. It's easier to check out. We give up on our marriages. We are willing to give up on our jobs. We give up on our families… on our commitments. Join us as Lead Pastor Sam Shaw walks us through the last chapter of Paul's last letter. Paul's last words ring with resolute determination that by God's strength we would not fall away, but instead finish the race well. Labor Day Weekend - 09.01.19
