Encountering Jesus: Transforming Conversations

Matthew 7:24-29
Remaining on Solid Ground
In this message, we’re reminded of the importance of building our lives on a solid foundation. Drawing from Matthew 7:24-29, we explore Jesus’ parable of the wise and foolish builders. The key lesson is clear: it’s not enough to simply hear the words of Christ; we must put them into practice. This parable beautifully illustrates how our faith is tested through life’s storms. Just as a house built on rock withstands the elements, so too does a life rooted in Christ endure life’s challenges. We’re encouraged to examine our own lives – are we merely hearers of the Word, or are we doers? This message challenges us to move beyond surface-level faith and truly live out the teachings of Jesus, demonstrating our faith through our actions. It’s a call to authentic discipleship, reminding us that true faith always produces fruit in our lives.
