Key Takeaways

    •    Live with an endgame mentality. Don’t just aim for short wins—focus on finishing the race strong.

    •    Paul modeled perseverance. Even through beatings, shipwrecks, and imprisonment, he pressed on toward Christ’s calling.

    •    Winning means commitment. The Christian life isn’t about comfort, it’s about consistency and faithfulness.

Three essentials of an endgame mindset:

    1.    Don’t let discomfort stop you.

    2.    Don’t let distractions pull you away.

    3.    Don’t quit when it gets hard.

You never get this time back. Now is the chance to finish strong and change the narrative of your year.

Set real goals. Don’t just say, “I want to get closer to God”—define steps to grow in your faith and impact your world.

This season matters. Friends & Family Month (October) is an opportunity to bring others with you as you press toward the prize.
