Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
2 Timothy 3:10–4:5
Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode.
2 Timothy 3:16–17: All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
1 Corinthians 10:20–21: No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of the demons.
2 Timothy 4:2–4: Preach the word, be urgent in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, and exhort, be unfailing in patience and in teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander into myths.
Invite Him in with this episode’s questions for reflection.
Root out idolatry in your life. Consider these idols and circle any you struggle with: looks, reputation, approval, sex, opinions, health, future, self-reliance, control, pleasure, sports, marriage, children, friends, clothes, politics, plans, weight, recognition, intellect, performance, independence, comfort, families. Take some time to journal whether you have something (an idol) absorbing your heart and imagination more than God.
OR
Based on 2 Timothy 3:10, pick a couple of the following questions that resonate with you.
Is there an area of my life where what I say doesn’t match what I do?
Is my purpose in life—the thing that I am revealing is most important to me— the right purpose? Is it what God says matters most? And am I living in a way that makes it clear that this is what is most important to me?
Am I continuing to grow in my faith or am I stagnant?
Am I patient?
Am I willing to love in radical and self-sacrificing ways? Even when it’s inconvenient? Even with people who are on my nerves?
Am I steadfast? Am I faithful in my relationships? Do I stick with things or do I quit when it gets difficult or bored? Am I resolute and unwavering?
