    2 Timothy 2:14-26 – The Anatomy of a Man of God
    Feb 8 2026
    In this passage, Paul reminds Timothy—and all believers—that the Christian life is not about checking religious boxes but becoming a certain kind of person. Using three vivid pictures, Paul shows us what that life looks like: an unashamed workman who knows the truth, a clean vessel set apart for honorable use, and a gentle servant who speaks the truth with love. Christianity is not about winning arguments or appearing impressive, it is about faithfully knowing, living, and speaking the truth The post 2 Timothy 2:14-26 – The Anatomy of a Man of God appeared first on Island Pond Baptist Church.

    2 Timothy 2:8-13 – Don’t Forget!
    Feb 1 2026
    In this passage, Paul calls Timothy, and us, to remember the gospel when life feels overwhelming. Writing from prison, Paul doesn’t offer new strategies or clever ideas. He points Timothy back to what matters most: Jesus Christ, risen from the dead. This sermon reminds us that the gospel must be so deeply rooted in us that when pressure comes, we don’t panic, we remember. When suffering, doubt, or failure hit, the unchained gospel steadies our faith and keeps us moving The post 2 Timothy 2:8-13 – Don’t Forget! appeared first on Island Pond Baptist Church.

    2 Timothy 2:1-7 – Living A Gospel-Focused Life
    Jan 25 2026
    In this passage from 2 Timothy 2:1–7, Paul calls believers to live a gospel-focused life marked by endurance, obedience, and hard work. Using the images of a soldier, an athlete, and a farmer, Paul shows that following Christ requires perseverance in suffering, faithfulness to God’s ways, and steady commitment over time. The mission is not just to believe the gospel but to pass it on by making disciples who make other disciples. Though the task is difficult, God does not The post 2 Timothy 2:1-7 – Living A Gospel-Focused Life appeared first on Island Pond Baptist Church.

    2 Timothy 1:8-18 – I’m Not Ashamed
    Jan 18 2026
    Fear makes it easy to stay quiet about our faith, but silence always costs something. In this passage, Paul shows Timothy that believers can respond to pressure in two very different ways: by being ashamed of the gospel or by standing unashamed. Some abandoned Paul because following Jesus had become risky. Others leaned in, suffered with him, and stayed faithful. Paul reminds us that the gospel is worth defending, worth suffering for, and worth living out because Jesus has saved The post 2 Timothy 1:8-18 – I’m Not Ashamed appeared first on Island Pond Baptist Church.

    2 Timothy 1:1-7 – When It’s Out Of Your Control
    Jan 11 2026
    When life feels out of control, it’s easy to freeze, despair, or try to fix everything ourselves. In this sermon from 2 Timothy 1:1–7, we look at how Paul responds to overwhelming circumstances while imprisoned and facing death. Rather than giving in to fear or helplessness, Paul models a better way: trusting God’s promises, doing what he can, practicing gratitude, relying on the Spirit, and praying constantly. This message reminds us that even when situations are beyond our control, we The post 2 Timothy 1:1-7 – When It’s Out Of Your Control appeared first on Island Pond Baptist Church.

    Luke 2:8-14 – Glory In The Highest
    Dec 22 2025
    Christmas often comes with stress, exhaustion, and a sense of spiritual breathlessness, but Luke 2 reminds us that God meets us right in the middle of the mess. Instead of announcing the birth of Jesus to the powerful or impressive, God reveals his glory to lowly shepherds, showing that the gospel is for the weary, the overlooked, and the unworthy. Jesus enters the world humbly in a manger, proving we do not have to clean ourselves up before coming to The post Luke 2:8-14 – Glory In The Highest appeared first on Island Pond Baptist Church.
