Your life is being spent whether you realize it or not.
The real question is: What are you spending it on?
Preaching from 2 Timothy 4:6–8, Pastor John Perry confronts one of the unavoidable realities of life. Our time is limited. Every day takes something out of us. Like the battery in your phone, your life is constantly draining.
You cannot choose whether your life will be spent. You can choose what it will be spent on.
In this message, Pastor Perry challenges believers to live with eternal purpose, to fight a fight worth fighting, finish a race worth finishing, and keep a faith worth keeping.
One line captures the message:
“Don't just die old. Die finished.”
The tragedy isn't simply that life is short. The tragedy is pouring your life into something that ultimately doesn't matter.
Main Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:6–8
Additional Scriptures: Romans 12:1, 2 Corinthians 12:15, 1 Corinthians 15:31, Matthew 24:46, Hebrews 9:27
Original sermon title: You've Got to Die From Something
