In this powerful message, Pastor Matt shares a deeply personal conversation he had with the founding pastor of Rocky, Alan Ahlgrim, just 13 days before Alan's passing. As Matt navigates a challenging season in his own life, he reflects on Alan's wisdom and encouragement, particularly around the themes of loneliness, God's unwavering presence, and the analogy of the shepherd and his flock. Through vulnerable storytelling and insightful biblical reflections, Matt reminds the congregation that even in our darkest moments, we are never truly alone - we are surrounded by the love, provision, and protection of our Heavenly Father. This message offers hope, comfort, and a renewed perspective on the steadfast nature of God's care for His people.
