Doug Cobb, Founder of the Finishing Fund, on the Sprint to the Ultimate Finish Line

• “Right from the beginning, generosity was something that found its way into our lives.”
• “That was the most amazing experience of our giving lives.”
• “Ours could be the generation to see this work finished. I absolutely believe that it’s within our capability by God’s grace to finish this within our generation.”
• “The business you end up doing is almost never the one you thought you were going to do.” 
• “Finding those things, those good works that he’s prepared in advance individually for each of us, to me just makes life such an incredible adventure.”
• “God is determined to see this work completed.”
• “If you compare the amount of time people spend managing their secular portfolios and the amount of time they spend managing their kingdom portfolios, for most people there is not even a comparison.”
• “There is hardly anything to be more excited about then the completion of the Great Commission.”
• “When you become convinced that we are living in the era of the finishing of the Great Commission, it just needs to change our view  of money, possessions, and eternity.”
• “The best way to conquer the power of money in your life is to give it away.”

Zechariah 4:6 | Not by Might

6 Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts.

Ephesians 2:8-10 | Created for Good Works

8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

2 Peter 3:11-12 | Hastening the Coming of the Day of God

11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn!

Matt 24:14 | And Then the End Will Come

14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

Luke 12:16-21 | Bigger Barns

16 And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, 17 and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ 18 And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.”’ 20 But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21 So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”
