In this message from John 2, we walk into the wedding at Cana and discover that Jesus’ first miracle wasn’t just about wine — it was about obedience. The servants didn’t understand the plan, didn’t see the outcome, and didn’t control the timing, but they kept filling the jars anyway. Their obedience shows us that complete obedience requires patience and trust, that partial obedience leaves the jar unfinished, and that God often works while nothing seems to be changing. When we play the long game with obedience, we position ourselves to see God move. You bring the water. Jesus makes the wine.

Come and See
Those were Jesus’ words—simple, unpolished, and quietly powerful. Not an argument. Not a lecture. Just an invitation.
In this message, we walk through the opening scenes of John’s Gospel and watch how faith actually begins for real people—believers, seekers, and skeptics alike. John the Baptist points. Curious people follow. Questions get asked. Lives start to change. And nobody has it all figured out yet.
This sermon is for the person who’s curious but cautious. The one who believes but feels stuck. The skeptic who’s tired of debates and wants something real. It’s about proximity before certainty, curiosity before clarity, and why you don’t have to have all the answers to take your next step toward Jesus.
You can’t argue someone into faith—but you can invite them to come and see.
If you’ve got a “one” in your life… this message is for you.
