Run to Win: The Discipline That Gets You to the Finish Line by Pastor Chris Smart (W. Las Vegas) | NEXT-GEN FRIDAY
SummaryEric Liddell shocked the world when he gave up his best Olympic event to honor God’s day. In this powerful sermon from Pastor Adam Dragoon, we learn from 1 Corinthians 9:24–27 that the Christian life is not just about running — it’s about running to win. Discover the disciplines, boundaries, and mindset you need to finish well, avoid disqualification, and hear “Well done” from the Lord.Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 9:24–27, Hebrews 12:1, 2 Timothy 4:7, Colossians 3:16Chapters00:00 – Intro: Next Gen Friday00:53 – Eric Liddell’s Olympic Stand for God02:20 – Running to Win: 1 Corinthians 9:24–2703:40 – Somalia Olympic Runner: Not All Compete the Same05:14 – Marathon Lessons: Who Finishes Well06:44 – The Reality: Many Run, Not All Win08:17 – Self-Control: The Athlete’s Secret Weapon10:25 – Laying Aside Weights and Sin (Hebrews 12:1)11:22 – Self-Restraint for the Gospel’s Sake12:46 – Boundaries and Spiritual Survival13:44 – Discipline or Disqualification15:08 – Habits Over Feelings16:10 – Emotional Christianity vs. Steady Faithfulness17:22 – Prayer: Guarding Against Temptation18:36 – Letting the Word of Christ Fill You19:54 – Run With the Runners20:56 – The Discipline of Church Attendance22:42 – Faking It vs. Genuine Christianity23:15 – Perishable Crowns vs. Eternal Rewards24:42 – Changing Your Pace Through Repentance25:37 – Finishing Strong Over Sprinting Fast27:25 – Leaving Nothing on the Table27:59 – Complete Surrender, Complete JoyShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!
