In this sermon, Pastor Will reflects on the common desire for vacations and breaks, exploring the misconception that time off alone can alleviate life's stresses. Drawing from personal experiences and observations, he delves into the realization that the root cause of stress lies in the way one spends the rest of their life. As the new year unfolds, listeners are encouraged to examine their lives and question if their current way of living is truly working for them. Referencing a biblical perspective from John 14:1-6, the speaker emphasizes Jesus' invitation to a transformative way of life, moving beyond mere beliefs or actions. This sermon sets the stage for a series on exploring this "better way" and invites everyone to consider baptism as a symbolic commitment to embracing Jesus' way of living life to the fullest. Join us as we embark on a journey to discover a life that transcends stress, anxiety, and unfulfillment.
