- 0:01Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
- 0:03Huddle for December 31st, 2025. A
- 0:06two-minute call from God's playbook to
- 0:08know him better so we can love and obey
- 0:11him more. Let's hear today's play from
- 0:13John 21. Jesus said this to indicate the
- 0:16kind of death by which Peter would
- 0:18glorify God. Then he said to him,
- 0:20"Follow me." Man, here's a question
- 0:23worth sitting with as another year comes
- 0:25to a close. If your life ended today,
- 0:28would it glorify God? Jesus didn't just
- 0:31predict Peter's death. He defined its
- 0:33purpose. Peter would die in a way that
- 0:36glorified God. His final moment would
- 0:39match the direction of his life.
- 0:41Obedient, [snorts]
- 0:41faithful, surrendered, and on mission.
- 0:44So, here's the question for us. Will
- 0:46that be our lives? We may not all die by
- 0:49crucifixion like Peter, but we are all
- 0:52called to die on mission. We can die
- 0:54sharing the gospel. We can die serving
- 0:57people in the ways that display the
- 0:59gospel. We can die praying, giving,
- 1:01discipling, and labor. Laboring so that
- 1:04Christ is known. The timing and location
- 1:07of our death, it may defer, but the
- 1:09purpose books not. Here's the truth. You
- 1:12won't glorify God at the end if you
- 1:14don't live for him along the way. Now,
- 1:16no man suddenly becomes faithful on his
- 1:19last day. What we practice daily is what
- 1:22we'll be found doing eventually. That
- 1:24means the finish is decided long before
- 1:26the final moment. And this reshapes how
- 1:29we think about retirement. Scripture
- 1:31never speaks of retiring from God's
- 1:33mission. Retirement is simply moving
- 1:35from the vocation that paid the bills to
- 1:38full freedom for our true occupation,
- 1:40the glory of God through making
- 1:42disciples. The mission field may change,
- 1:44but the mission doesn't. We're not
- 1:47waiting to die. We're preparing to
- 1:48finish faithfully. So run today's play.
- 1:51Ask yourself, what would need to change
- 1:54today for my life to clearly glorify God
- 1:57if it ended tomorrow? Then take one step
- 2:00of obedience. Re-engage, reorder,
- 2:03refocus. Follow Jesus now so that
- 2:06whether by life or by death, God is
- 2:08glorified through you. If this huddle
- 2:10helps you know God better so you can
- 2:12love and obey him more, leave a quick
- 2:14review and then share it with a friend.
- 2:16This helps other men find their way into
- 2:18the huddle.
