Summer Road Trip

Aug 31, 2025    Pastor Matthew Schultz

In this powerful message, we're taken on a journey from death to life, exploring the ultimate destination God has prepared for us. The central theme revolves around the life that God intended for humanity from the beginning - a life of pure joy, free from tears, death, and pain. We're reminded of John's vision in Revelation, where he describes a heaven where God wipes away every tear and eliminates all suffering. This isn't just a distant hope; it's a promise written on our hearts. As we reflect on the imperfections of our current world, we're encouraged to recognize that our longing for something better is actually a reflection of the eternity God has placed within us. The message beautifully connects this eternal hope to Jesus' words: 'I am the way, the truth, and the life.' Through faith in Christ, we're assured that this perfect life is not only possible but already given to us through baptism and continually renewed in communion. This inspiring perspective challenges us to live in the light of our eternal destiny, finding hope and purpose in our present circumstances.
