Don’t Stop on the Sixth Lap–If you are coasting on yesterday’s spiritual victories, John Barnett’s perspective-shattering class delivers an urgent wake-up call to your soul. Barnett notes that in ancient Greek games, a runner had to complete exactly seven laps. If they stopped on the sixth—no matter how fast they ran—they were completely disqualified. True life transformation is not defined by a dynamic start, but by how faithfully you finish your course.
Knocking Out the Enemy Within
Using Paul’s vivid athletic metaphors, Barnett reveals that spiritual growth requires three daily battlefronts:
Boxing (Inward): Fighting the "terrorist within"—our old fleshly operating system. Like a Golden Gloves boxer delivering a strategic knockout blow under the eye, we must willfully mortify our pride and lust for comfort.
Running (Forward): Sprinting with eyes locked on Jesus, staying in our lane like commuters elbowing to see a Los Angeles bus arrive.
Wrestling (Downward): Armoring ourselves completely to withstand the powers of darkness.
Reclaiming Your Eternal Crown
Whether suffering in a sewer-like dungeon like Paul or managing daily vocations, this class challenges you to stop coasting. By cultivating simplicity, silence, and absolute surrender, you can win the five heavenly crowns—life, rejoicing, self-control, righteousness, and glory. Do not show up to heaven empty-handed. Watch this class today to trade modern restlessness for an eternal, crown-winning purpose.
