Is "Let go and let God" actually biblical? In this Season Finale of The Drive Bible Podcast, Pastor Spencer and Bob dive deep into Philippians 3:13–16 to discuss why the Christian walk requires active endurance, not passive waiting.

We explore the Apostle Paul’s mindset of "forgetting what lies behind" and pressing forward toward the upward call of God. We also tackle the critical need for unity in the body of Christ, contrasting the unified story of the Bible with the fractured storytelling of franchises like Star Wars.

From the importance of older generations mentoring the youth to the difference between being a peacekeeper vs. a peacemaker, this episode is packed with practical applications for your sanctification journey.

In this episode, we cover:

Philippians 3 Breakdown: Why perfection is not the goal, but the pursuit is.

Spiritual Stagnation: Why stopping is death in the Christian walk.

Discipleship: The vital role of older men and women mentoring the next generation.

Unity vs. Uniformity: How to have "one mind" without having the exact same personality.

Practical Application: How to "major on the majors and minor on the minors."

Key Scripture:

"Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead..." — Philippians 3:13

"Sanctification is a pursuit, not a destination."

"A fractured body cannot effectively serve its head."

"Be a peacemaker, not a peacekeeper. A peacekeeper avoids conflict to stay comfortable; a peacemaker walks into the conflict to solve the problem."
