In week two of the True North series, Pastor Adam Haugen challenged us to consider a simple but important question: What is guiding your life? In a world filled with opinions, social media influencers, emotions, and endless advice, it can be easy to drift off course without realizing it. While many voices sound confident, confidence is not the same as truth.

Drawing from John 17:17, Pastor Adam reminded us that God's Word is not merely a collection of good ideas—it is truth. Just as a GPS helps navigate a journey, Scripture serves as the reliable map God has given us for life.

The message focused on three ways God's Word works in our lives:

It guides us by illuminating our next step, even when we can't see the entire path ahead.

It protects us from temptation and deception by anchoring us in truth.

It transforms us from the inside out, shaping us into the image of Christ.

Pastor Adam encouraged believers not to approach the Bible simply for information, but for transformation. The goal is not merely to know more Scripture, but to become more like Jesus.

The challenge was practical and clear: Before you open your phone, open God's Word. Allow the Holy Spirit to guide, protect, and transform you through daily time in Scripture.
