You've probably prayed for God to fix something in your life. A habit. A relationship. A wound. A pattern you can't seem to break.
But what if Jesus asked you a surprising question first?
In John 5, Jesus meets a man who has been stuck in the same condition for 38 years. Instead of immediately healing him, Jesus asks something unexpected:
"Do you want to get well?"
It sounds like an obvious question… until you realize something deeper. Sometimes the thing that's hurting us has also become the system we rely on. Sometimes our weakness becomes the way we get sympathy, avoid responsibility, or stay comfortable.
In this message from the Answer Honestly series, Pastor Craig Smith explores how:
-
Your issue may not actually be your real issue
-
"It's complicated" is different than "I can't"
-
The systems we build can keep us stuck
-
Jesus wants to free us from more than just symptoms
If you've ever felt trapped by patterns, pain, or circumstances, this message will challenge you to answer one honest question:
Do you really want to get well?
