"It's Clearly A Challenge" | Matt 7:24-29 | Tim Parlier
When life feels fragile and the future is uncertain, where can you find something solid? This message begins in the tension of real suffering and leads us to Jesus’ invitation to build our lives on an unshakable foundation. Centered on Jesus as the Good Shepherd, it explores why His voice, heard through Scripture, is trustworthy, clear, and lovingly challenging. Rather than offering opinions or quick fixes, this message calls listeners to honest surrender, deeper trust, and a faith that can withstand life’s storms. In a noisy, confusing world, Jesus still speaks, and His words lead to true life.
1. When life feels uncertain or painful, where do you usually look for guidance or comfort? How does that compare to where Jesus looked?
2. What sin/belief/activity, etc. in your life might be causing “static on the line” that might be keeping you from hearing God clearly? (John 10)
3. When was a time God spoke to you directly through your time in the Bible? What change did you experience from that?
4. The sermon says: “We want clarity until it costs us something. Jesus calls His followers to increasing surrender. What’s the difference between asking Jesus “What can I keep?” versus “What do You want me to give up?” Do you sense Jesus inviting you to surrender anything in your life right now?
5. How could you make Scriptures a greater part of your daily/weekly rhythms? What would you commit to this year?
