Send us a textFoundations aren't glamorous – nobody compliments the concrete. Yet as Pastors Lee and Jim reveal in this deep dive into Matthew 7:24-27, everything you build depends on what lies beneath. Jesus's parable about the wise and foolish builders offers a stark choice between two foundations that determine our stability when life's storms hit.The truth hits hard: both builders heard Jesus's teachings, but only one put them into practice. This fundamental distinction between hearing and doing forms the centerpiece of our conversation. We explore what it means to be "doers of the word and not hearers only" (James 1:22), challenging the notion that mere spiritual knowledge or church attendance is sufficient for a vibrant faith.When Jesus says "the rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew" against both houses, He's revealing something profound about life's challenges. As we unpack in this episode, following Christ doesn't provide immunity from trouble – it provides stability in trouble. The difference is life-changing.What parts of your life are merely admiring Jesus's teaching from a distance rather than building upon it? We get personal about how this applies to parenting, relationships, financial decisions, and everyday choices where obedience matters. We challenge the "appetite shopping" approach to Scripture where we selectively apply only what feels comfortable.The good news? It's never too late to rebuild your foundation. Whether you're just beginning your faith journey or recognizing areas built on shifting sand, Jesus invites us to trust and follow His way. Join us as we discover what it truly means to build a life that stands strong – not just on Sunday, but every day.Listen now and share with someone who needs to build their life on the rock of Christ's teachings.Support the show
