What Makes a Healthy Church

What do you do when life does not turn out the way you hoped?

In Luke 24, two disciples are walking the road to Emmaus carrying grief, disappointment, and confusion after the death of Jesus. They believed the story was over, but Jesus met them on the road and opened the Scriptures, showing them that the cross was not an interruption of God’s plan—it was the fulfillment of it.

In this message, we explore the importance of biblical theology and how the whole Bible tells one unfolding story of God’s redemption that finds its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. We also see how Scripture helps correct our perspective, restore hope in seasons of disappointment, protect us from false ideas about God, and remind us that Jesus is with us even when we cannot clearly see what He is doing.

When disappointment clouds our vision, Scripture helps us see Jesus again.

Scripture: Luke 24:13–35
