Sermon Excerpt

And so, He has created us with a built-in purpose. Our lives are to reveal Him as He really is, the self-centered God who is the heartbeat of life. As we know Him and enjoy Him as the kind of God that He is, as we live according to reality, we will glorify Him. We will make Him look as good as He really is. We will show others that God is the heartbeat of life. Jesus understood that. He understood that revealing God in this way is the purpose of living. And that's why He prayed in the way that He did as He faced the pushback of evil. That's why He prayed that the Father would be glorified by the pain that He would suffer.
