Demas
Tom Shrader explores the cautionary tale of Demas, a close ministry partner of Paul who abandoned him in his hour of greatest need because he "loved this present world." Using Demas as a warning against worldly temptation, Shrader examines how the lure of material success and comfort can draw even committed believers away from faithful service. He applies this lesson practically, emphasizing the need for contentment, eternal perspective, and the team nature of Christian ministry. “You are not meant to be ultimately satisfied, to have a critical, crucial longing met with a person, place, or thing other than Jesus.” — Tom Shrader Series: CBCC July 2014 Recorded in 2014 Duration: 1 hr 3 min Themes: temptation, faithfulness, worldliness, contentment, ministry, partnership, perseverance, priorities, struggling with materialism, ministry burnout, feeling tempted by success, pastor, ministry partner, mature believer, church leader, facing difficult choices Topics: apostasy, falling away, sanctification, spiritual maturity, discipleship, following christ, stewardship, faithful service Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:9-10, Colossians 4:14, Philemon 1:24, 1 John 2:15-16, James 4:4, Genesis 3:6, Matthew 13:22, 1 Timothy 6:6-8, 1 Timothy 6:17, James 1:2, 2 Timothy 2:3-6 — About Priority Living AZ — Priority Living AZ preserves the teaching legacy of Tom Shrader.
