Worthy Walk from CCCC

We conclude by returning to the story so familiar it risks becoming background noise—the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. This final sermon ties together every previous theme (the trustworthiness of God's Word, obedience, courage under threat, integrity, forgiveness, and providence) and asks what it means to respond to Jesus not as a childhood story but as the defining reality of adult life.

Esther finds herself in a position of power and danger she never sought—queen of a pagan empire, with her people's survival hanging on whether she'll risk everything to speak up. As adults, we wrestle with Mordecai's challenge, 'who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this,' and ask what it means to see our own jobs, seasons, and circumstances as placements with purpose rather than accidents.

Joseph's story is often taught as a rags-to-riches tale, but the adult center of this narrative is Joseph's choice to forgive the brothers who betrayed him, sold him into slavery, and left his father to grieve for decades. This sermon confronts what real forgiveness demands when the wound runs deep.

Daniel's story is often taught as a simple 'God protects the faithful' lesson, but adults must reckon with the fact that Daniel's integrity was established long before the lions—in daily, private choices to remain faithful when it cost him nothing to compromise.

Three young men refuse to bow to a golden image, fully aware it might cost them their lives—and their answer to the king becomes one of the boldest statements of faith in Scripture: 'Our God is able to deliver us... but even if He does not.' 

Moses is tending sheep, minding his own business, forty years into a quiet exile—and then a bush won't stop burning. As adults we often build lives around comfort and predictability; this sermon confronts what happens when God interrupts our routines with a calling we didn't ask for, and examines Moses' excuses ('I'm not qualified,' 'I'm not a good speaker,' 'send someone else') as the same excuses we still use today.

We continue with Noah, a story often reduced to cute animal pairs and rainbows. As adults, we examine what it actually meant for Noah to obey God for 100 years with no visible proof, no rain in sight, and no peer support—and what that demands of us when God's instructions don't make immediate sense.

We open the series at the very beginning—not with a metaphor or a poem, but with six actual days in which God spoke the universe into existence. As adults living in a culture that pressures us to treat Genesis 1 as legend or allegory, we examine why holding to a literal six-day creation matters: for our confidence in Scripture, our understanding of human dignity made in God's image, and the foundation it lays for the rest of the Bible's storyline, including sin, death, and the need for a Savior.

Teaching Pastor Jason Parmer from Faith Bible Church share a message in the 1*5 sermon series at CCCC

Jesus never called the church to hide from the world—He sent us into it.

This Sunday, we’ll look at John 17 and Jesus’ prayer for His people: that we would be grounded in truth,

united in purpose, and faithful in carrying His hope toothers.

Jesus said there are two roads.
One is wide, easy, crowded—and leads to destruction.
The other is narrow, difficult, and traveled by few—but
it leads to life.
The question isn’t whether you’re on a road.
The question is: Which road are you on?
