The Extra Mile- “Overcoming Loneliness” 2 Timothy 4:6-18
 
The Four Common Causes of Loneliness

 
  • Transition
 
 
 “For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time has come for my departure.  I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
 2 Timothy 4:6-8
 
  • Separation    
 
 
"Do your best to come to me quickly."   2 Timothy 4:10-11, 20
 
  • Opposition
 
 
 "Be on your guard against him, because he strongly opposed our message. 2 Timothy 4:14-15
   
  • Rejection
 
 
"At my first defense, no one came to my support." (2 Timothy 4:16)
 
 
The Four Simple Steps To Take To Cure Loneliness

 
  • Utilize your time.    
 
 
"Timothy, when you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas. Bring my scrolls, especially the parchments."  2 Timothy 4:13
 
  • Minimize the hurt.  
 
 "May it not be held against them."  2 Timothy 4:16
 
 
  • Recognize God's presence.   
 
 
"The Lord stood at my side and gave me strength." 2 Timothy 4:17
 
  • Emphasize other's needs.
 
 
  " So....that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and all the Gentiles might hear it."    (2 Timothy 4:17)
 
 
Jesus Understands YOUR Loneliness
 
  • He was tempted with every human emotion. Hebrews 4:15
 
  • He faced EXTREME loneliness Himself. Matt 26:40, 26:56, 27:46
 
 
 
 
We can go the Extra mile when …
 you understand that Jesus cares about us
                          and
 understands when we are lonely!

    David Craig, Pastor

    I began my journey as the Lead Pastor in June 2011.  Prior to coming to Shreveport I served in Texas, Pennsylvania, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma.  I studied religion and music at Southern Nazarene University and received my M.A. degree from Nazarene Theological Seminary.

    I was raised in a Christian home where I was exposed to the Lord at an early age.  As a junior in high school I felt a call to serve Jesus for a lifetime in the ministry.

    I and my wife, Dawn, have two sons. Caleb is a graduate of Southern Nazarene University and Adam attends ULM in Monroe, La

    In my spare time I enjoy sports of all kinds, but especially the Texas Longhorns.
