There are many times when I am cemented by the enormity of the obstacles in front of me. I am terrified, or overwhelmed, or saddened or any other host of immobilizing emotions. This is why I enjoy the song, "Move (Keep Walkin')" by TobyMac. I use the song to deploy us to 2 Timothy, where we can get "unstuck" by simply following Paul's advice to Timothy.
It may be simple, but it will be challenging. I hope you accept the assignment.
On this episode I discuss:

Setting goals using strong verbs
Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture - Bible Interaction Tool Exercises this week...

Reading in context
Making lists


Making a list of strong verbs found in 2 Timothy
Training your mind to be curious and ask questions while you're reading or listening to teaching
The strong verb, "share." Share what? - 2 Timothy 1:8
The strong verb, "follow." Follow what? - 2 Timothy 1:13
How I was inspired by the lyric "soldier keep movin' on" that led me to 2 Timothy 2:3-4
Soldiers endure great challenges and suffering to please their commanding officer. How much more will we as soldiers of Christ?
Avoid getting entangled in civilian pursuits - 2 Timothy 2:4

This Week's Challenge
Read 2 Timothy all the way through in one sitting. Then go back and make a list of the strong verbs that you see in this letter of instruction to young Timothy from his mentor Paul. Choose one or two "assignments" to focus on this week. These are instructions...orders from the Captain of our Salvation - make it your aim to please Him.
