    The Legacy

    Everyone wants to be remembered for something. This month at Journey Fellowship we are studying the book of 2 Timothy. It's a book with some big theological meaning but overarching those truths is the idea of legacy, specifically Paul's legacy.

    In this emotional letter to his beloved protege Timothy, Paul commends the message of the Gospel to his spiritual son. He encourages Timothy to guard the "good deposit" and to not be led astray by false teachers and heretics. He cautions Timothy that distractions and problems are going to come and he commends to Timothy the scriptures as his guide and the Savior as his hope.

    These are the things Paul wants to be remembered for. These are the things he wants to pass on even after he is gone. What are you passing on? What will people remember you for? Is it time for a change so that your legacy is different?
