What happens when the script of your life flips and even the strongest faith begins to waver? This sermon explores Matthew 11, where John the Baptist, languishing in prison, sends a message of doubt to Jesus: “Are you the one?” Delve into Jesus’s profound response and the challenging idea that God doesn’t cause our suffering but works with us through life’s “horrible variables.” Discover the meaning behind one of Jesus’s most mysterious sayings—that the kingdom of heaven suffers violence—and see how it describes the holy earnestness of the broken and outcast as they “press in” to find healing. This message contrasts this desperate faith with the apathy of the unrepentant cities, culminating in Jesus’s timeless invitation to all who are weary to come and find rest.
