Chasing after things that promise fulfillment but leave you empty? You're not alone. In this powerful message that kicks off our new series "The Prodigal," Pastor explores the timeless story of the prodigal son and reveals how to recognize the mirages in our own lives. From Wile E. Coyote cartoons to life-changing biblical truth from Luke 15, this teaching will help you stop chasing empty promises and start asking the right questions. Whether you're wrestling with disappointment, confusion, or wondering if God is really who He says He is—this message is packed with hope, grace, and practical wisdom. God's not just offering you His stuff. He's offering you Himself. Scripture Reference: Luke 15 Big Idea: Empty promises aren't just disappointments—they're invitations to something greater. Key Quote: "We ask God to do things in our life, but instead of trusting the Father for the outcome, we get upset when it doesn't happen the way we thought it should." ⸻ Topics in this Message: • Recognizing the mirages we chase in life • The difference between religious people and Jesus people • Why asking "what" instead of "why" changes everything • Understanding that you were made for more than this world • How God's grace meets us where we are • Finding fulfillment in relationship, not religion +++++++ Join us for church this Sunday.
