In this message, Pastor Brent draws a powerful analogy between missing highway exits and missing the true path in life. The call to action is clear: find the narrow road that leads to purpose through Jesus, rather than settling for a comfortable but unfulfilling journey.
Key takeaways:
- There’s Only One Path: No matter how good we think we are, or how well we treat others, Pastor Brent teaches from John 14:6 that Jesus is the only way to truly know God. Living kindly isn’t enough—finding Jesus is vital.
- Purpose Over Pleasure: Life isn’t about chasing temporary pleasures; it’s about discovering and living out your God-given purpose. Like Jonah, it’s easy to run or take the “pleasure cruise,” but only true fulfillment comes by responding to God’s calling.
- Compassion and Discipleship Matter: Being on the right road means actively caring for the lost and sharing the message. Whether in your home, your workplace, or your community, advancing the gospel and discipling others is at the heart of the journey.
