Video of my sermon “Perseverance in Ministry” from 2 Timothy 2:3-13 at Reed Springs Baptist Church, July 7, 2014.

1. Three models for ministry (vs. 3-7)

• The soldier’s purpose
• The athlete’s principle
• The farmer’s productivity

1. The motivation for ministry (vs. 8-10)

• Romans 10:14

2. A trustworthy motto for ministry (vs. 11-13)

• If we have died with Christ, we will live with Him
• If we endure, we will also reign with Him
• If we deny him, he will also deny us
• If we are faithless, he remains faithful
