In this episode, Joshua Davis speaks to students at an FCA Leadership Camp at Lake Junaluska, NC. The camp theme this year was Pursue based on 1 Timothy 6:11. In this message, Joshua speaks to the students about pursuing the abundant life Christ has promised to believers and what that means.
God refines and purifies areas of our lives as he separates us from the world. Yet, as we live our lives, we may find the world still leaving its mark. Our continuous sin in this world tarnishes that which God has once refined and can be difficult to remove. What’s worse is our sin interferes with our ability to reflect the glory of God. In this podcast, we discuss the elements of tarnish and how it affects us and those around us. After all, sin is not just an individualist concept but can also have communal effects. Furthermore, we explore the practice of diligently removing the tarnish so that our demonstration of God’s glory is not hindered.
