“One thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3:13–14 ESV)

Athletes set goals for years of training, knowing their progress will be gradual but steady. Similarly, a Christian’s goal of becoming like Christ will be incremental and challenging, requiring years of obedience to His calling. Teaching from Paul’s letter to the Philippians, Alistair Begg exhorts all of us—and challenges young men in particular—to live with a determined, singular pursuit of Christlikeness, encouraging believers to passionately and actively seek Jesus in all we do.
