Matt Murphy draws from 1 Timothy 6 to call the church to a long-haul faithfulness formed through gospel-rooted pursuit and fueled by grace. Using the imagery of drifting from wonder, it reminds us that faithfulness doesn’t happen by accident—it’s cultivated through intentional pursuit of God’s character, truth, and eternal life. Paul charges Timothy to flee sin, pursue virtue, fight for truth, and hold onto life in Christ, all motivated by God’s presence and the promise of Jesus’ return. Though we fall short and drift into distraction, we are not left alone—Christ was faithful first, and His grace empowers our pursuit. Our response isn’t striving in our own strength, but surrendering to the grace of the One who pursued us first. Faithfulness, then, becomes not just a task but a response of love and worship.
