Sermon Summary

We call Jesus “Lord, Lord” but often still live like we’re in charge. We make our own plans, chase our own dreams, and ask God to bless our will instead of submitting to His. We treat Jesus like a great Rabbi with helpful advice, but not as KYRIOS—Master, Owner, Supreme Authority. Jesus taught that many will be surprised on judgement day because they picked and chose good works without full obedience to Him. We build on sand when we do what initially feels good, avoid hard obedience, and stay in control—but the storm always comes. We find unshakable joy, peace, and freedom when we build on the rock and do what He says, even when it’s hard. We follow Jesus as LORD when we repent, deny ourselves, obey immediately, and make disciples—before the storm hits.

Fill the city with Jesus. This is the vision not just for our church, but for our people. The city is not just a physical location, but a collection of our family members, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances. How can you bring Jesus to your city?
