Making the Most of the Meantime

About the Sermon
In this opening sermon, we address the difficult reality of feeling like God is silent during our struggles. By looking at Habakkuk’s honest questions and doubts, we learn how to express our own frustrations to God without losing our faith. We’ll discover that God’s silence doesn’t mean He’s absent and that there is meaning to be found even in the quiet, lonely seasons.

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.
