Proclaiming Boldly, Suffering Bravely

About this episode

Alistair Begg discusses the demanding nature of biblical discipleship as illustrated by Paul's guidance to Timothy on boldly proclaiming the Gospel and enduring suffering.

While an approach to Christianity that treats it as a soft option may sound attractive, it's certainly not scriptural. Truly biblical discipleship is muscular, demanding, and thoughtful. The apostle Paul made this clear to Timothy as he urged him to proclaim the Gospel boldly and to suffer for it bravely. In this conference message, Alistair Begg examines the three word pictures Paul used to clarify the believer's daily need for devotion, discipline, and diligence in the Christian life.
