In today’s episode of The Good Word, we’re talking about something we all struggle with—grit, perseverance, and overcoming laziness. The Bible calls us to work hard, stay disciplined, and push through when things get tough. But what does that actually look like in our daily lives?

We’re diving into Colossians 3:23, 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, and Joshua 1:9 to break down what it means to work for the Lord, run the race of faith with endurance, and step forward with courage even when we feel like giving up. Whether you're struggling to stay motivated in school, work, or your walk with Christ, this episode is for you.

Are you running the race, or are you standing at the starting line? Let’s talk about it. 🚀 #FaithInAction #RunTheRace #TheGoodWord
