The storms of life come to every house. The question isn't whether they'll come, but what your house is built on when they do. Opening a brand-new four-part series on building your life on the Word of the living God, Pastor Jim digs into Matthew 7 and Jesus' comparison between the wise man and the foolish man, revealing that it's not what you build that matters most, it's where you build it. You'll walk through a side-by-side look at "Sandy" and "Rocky" . . . the hearer versus the doer, the convenient versus the inconvenient, the life ruled by feelings, culture, and influencers versus the life anchored to Scripture that never changes. Along the way you'll discover why God is never your problem but always your answer, why "what from here?" is a far better question than "why, God, why?", and how closing the gap between knowing and doing automatically closes the gap between wanting and having. If your life feels like it's built on sinking sand and you want to be ready before the next storm rolls in, this message will show you how to stand.

Your story isn't over. In fact, the best chapters may be just getting started.
