Listen "September 28th, 2025 - Pastor Matt McDonald | The Church Jesus Builds | Firm Foundation Week 4 |"
Episode Synopsis
In this powerful exploration of Matthew 16:13-18, we're challenged to consider the foundation of our faith and the church. The central question 'Who do you say I am?' isn't just a historical inquiry, but a personal challenge to each of us. This passage reveals that the church isn't built on public opinion or human ideas, but on the divine revelation of Christ's identity. Just as Peter's confession became the rock on which the church was built, our own understanding of Jesus shapes our spiritual foundation. We're reminded that Jesus himself is the builder of the church, freeing us from the pressure of trying to sustain it ourselves. Instead, we're called to faithfulness, allowing Christ to work through us. The imagery of weeds breaking through concrete beautifully illustrates the unstoppable nature of the church, encouraging us to persevere in our faith journey, knowing that we're part of something greater than ourselves.
