The Folly of Sand, and the Wisdom of Stone

Pastor Jonathan Stockstill

Every life is being built on something, but not every foundation will last. In Part 3 of our Wisdom That Works series, Pastor Jonathan unpacks Jesus' teaching in Matthew 7 and shows us the danger of building on the shifting sands of culture, philosophy, and self-reliance versus the solid rock of God's Word…. when the storm comes, only one foundation will stand! This message challenges us to dig deep, build on stone, and live in daily obedience to the Word of God.
