Train Yourself For Godliness: 1 Timothy 4:7-10 (May 31, 2026)

About this episode

This episode discusses how the Holy Spirit empowers believers to train for godliness through various spiritual disciplines.

Because we’ve received the gift of the Holy Spirit, living in us, the Spirit can change us over time. I Timothy 4:7-10 shows us that grace is not opposed to effort; rather, godliness happens through training. Jesus himself practiced the Spirit empowered disciplines of solitude, dwelling in the Word, prayer, simplicity & fasting, Sabbath, service and gathering for worship. Because we have the Spirit we can too. This message was preached by Pastor Erick Cobb on May 31, 2026.
