Old Paths, New Purpose (Part 2) – The Absence and Defiance of Today

Pastor Tim Travis urges listeners to return to the “Old Paths,” which represent God’s established ways of living, not simply being old-fashioned. Pastor Travis, from Jeremiah 6, emphasizes that the current problems and “superficial Christianity” stem from a failure of following “New Paths” of human design and defiance against God’s will. Travis highlights the need for presence and obedience to God’s guidance, contrasting the faith of biblical figures who “showed up” with the modern “absence” and “defiance” seen in society and even among believers. Ultimately, Pastor Travis asserts that true peace and rest for the soul are found not in the absence of trouble, but in the presence of the Lord and walking in His good way.
