He Remains Faithful
by Matt Caudle
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” 2 Timothy 4:7. I have heard this verse a hundred different times as many of us have and in each time I read the verse or heard the verse preached, it was mentioned as a positive, an encouragement, to uplift. But this verse use to burden me and make me question... “Have I truly kept the faith?”
Oh God, I have been faithless at times.
Oh God, I have doubted You.
Oh God, I have questioned You.
Oh God, I do not understand why at times.
Oh God, why aren’t You answering me?
Oh God, where are You?
Thankfully, we serve a gracious and loving Father who stays true even through our doubts, our uncertainty, our faithlessness.
“If we are faithless, he remains faithful.” 2 Timothy 2:13
Oh God, forgive me.
Oh God, thank you.
Oh God, Your timing is perfect.
Oh God, You always knew.
Oh God, I wasn’t ready.
Oh God, You never left.
Like the story of the Prodigal Son, our great, merciful Father longs for us to come back if even for a moment our faith wavers and we question. God remains faithful. Glory be to God!

ABC’s for Interpreting the Prophets, Proverbs, and Parables
March 16th, 2026
It is vital for us as Christians to rightly read, interpret, and teach the Bible. Paul likens false teaching to staff infection. He tells Timothy, "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness, and their talk will spread like ga...
When Life Gets Big
March 9th, 2026
When life gets big, it's easy for our fickle hearts and minds to make God seem small. In Job’s story, his life got big and scary very quickly. Throughout his journey, God didn’t speak to him until the last five chapters of the book. God’s speech to Job didn’t offer explanations for his suffering, rather He reminded Job of who He is and how sovereign and powerful He is. In every season, it’s good t...
A Radical Christian is an Ordinary Christian
March 2nd, 2026
I grew up in the “Radical” era of Christianity as a teenager. A faithful young man discipled my friends and I by going through David Platt’s book Radical. I love that book and even taught it to youth as a young man. It made me ask the serious question: would I still follow Jesus if I did not have anything? It gave examples of real Christians who had to hide and travel long distances to gather for ...
