<p>In this episode we look at one verse, Philippians 3:14, and ask what Paul was actually hunting down from a prison cell while still full of joy.</p><p>The Greek word for &quot;press on&quot; means to hunt. Saul hunted Christians. Then Christ hunted him. Everything changed. Paul spent the rest of his life chasing the one thing that had already chased him down.</p><p>You don&#39;t press on so God will accept you. You press on because He already has. Like a bride preparing for a wedding day to a groom she already belongs to. Like Mary at His feet. Like John leaning on His chest.</p><p>The goal isn&#39;t heaven. The goal isn&#39;t the crown. The goal is Christ.</p><p>Hunt down heaven with a full heart.</p><p>After the Amen: How does Christ&#39;s pursuit of you make you stress less?
