How do we live faithfully for the Lord and prevent drifting away?In this episode, Brody discusses the life of Demas, why people tend to drift away, and how we can stay faithful. Demas was once a co-laborer with Paul on the mission field, but abandoned Paul when he was needed most. Scripture tells us Demas thought the world offered him something greater than what the Lord provided. People are often influenced by the latest movement or ideology, but these movements don’t last. However, the Gospel is unchanging. It is eternal and outlasts cultural movements. Let’s hold fast to Jesus and pursue him faithfully.View the SWO StaffJude 2Colossians 4:142 Timothy 4:91 John 2:15Send us a textPlease leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help improve No Sanity Required and help others grow in their faith.
