This sermon from Pastor Josh Gatewood at Redeemer Church in Midland, Texas, powerfully explores why worldly success, fame, and achievements—like those of Johnny Manziel and Jim Carrey—ultimately leave us empty, as our hearts were made for Jesus alone. Drawing from the Great Commission in Matthew 28:16-20, he calls believers to embrace Jesus' mission of making disciples of all nations through following Him wholeheartedly, overcoming barriers like sin, selfishness, setbacks, success, and suffering by surrendering everything to Christ. With encouragement to pursue authentic discipleship in community, the message inspires us in 2026 to live as a gospel-centered people who find true fulfillment in joining Jesus' eternal work.
