Supporting Actor: Pointing People to Jesus

This sermon emphasizes that our primary purpose in life is to clearly point people to Jesus, not to be the main character in our own story. Using John the Baptist as the model, the message explores how John understood his role as a forerunner who prepared the way for Christ. The sermon challenges believers to have clarity about who they are not (the Messiah), who they are (a voice pointing to Jesus), and who Jesus is (the one with all authority). In a culture filled with secondary messages and hot-button issues, Christians must remain focused on their primary mission: introducing people to Jesus through love, grace, and truth, rather than winning arguments or changing external behaviors before addressing spiritual transformation.
