About this episode
Peter discusses the importance of Spirit-given power for endurance and perseverance in faith, drawing on biblical examples and reflections from C. S. Lewis.
In this message, Peter unpacks Paul’s bold prayer that believers would be strengthened with all power according to God’s glorious might—not power in proportion to our need, but in proportion with who God is. This isn’t strength for show, but Spirit-given power for endurance in impossible situations and patience with impossible people. Exploring the difference between a waypoint and a destination, we’re reminded not to settle short of God’s goal for us: resilient, Spirit-filled perseverance that outlasts pressure. With reflections from C. S. Lewis and the example of Stephen in Acts, this sermon calls us to discover that when our strength runs out, God’s power is only just getting started.
