What happens when “my truth” collides with the truth?

In Part 2 of the series “What is Truth?”, Pastor Dan unpacks Jesus’ words in John 13:36–14:11 and challenges one of the most common ideas in today’s culture: the belief that our personal truth is enough. While our experiences matter and should be heard, our own perspective is not the final standard of reality. True truth is not found in our feelings, opinions, or self-perception—it is found in Jesus Christ.

Using Peter’s confidence, Thomas’s confusion, and Jesus’ powerful declaration, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life,” this message reminds us that our own understanding must be surrendered to the One who is truth itself.

Pastor Dan explores how:

• Our personal truth can be distorted by pride, fear, insecurity, and culture

• Jesus sees through our self-confidence and calls us to humility

• God’s promises anchor us in difficulty, anxiety, and uncertainty

• Jesus is not just a source of truth—He is the Truth

• Real life, hope, and eternal security are found only in Him

This message is a needed reminder for anyone wrestling with confusion, fear, identity, pressure, or the temptation to define truth on their own terms.
