I'm Fixed Upon It

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 55:8-9; Matthew 4:8-10,16:21-28; 1 Peter 2:21

Sermon Focus: In the episode immediately after Simon’s great confession (“You are the Messiah, the Son of the Living God”), and Jesus gives him his new name, Peter (rock), the Lord strongly rebukes Peter for being a stumbling block to him. And then Jesus uses that moment to challenge the expectations of the disciples and clarify what it means to follow him. In the fourth message of our series, Pastor David invites us to learn with Peter that Jesus is not the Messiah we expect—he is the Messiah we need.
