About this episode

Pastor John S. Dickerson discusses the challenges of trusting God when life doesn't make sense, using biblical examples to illustrate faith and sacrifice.

What do you do when you choose God, obey Him, and life still falls apart? Pastor John S. Dickerson teaches through some of the most challenging and faith-filled moments in Scripture. Looking at the lives of Hannah, Sarah, the Shunammite woman, and Mary’s costly offering to Jesus, this message shows that trusting God is not always immediate, comfortable, or easy, but it is always meaningful. This sermon speaks to anyone who has wrestled with delayed answers, painful sacrifice, or obedience that seemed costly. Through John 12, Matthew 26, 1 Samuel, Genesis, 2 Kings, and Psalm 18, Pastor John unpacks how real faith learns to trust God with what we value most, even when the outcome does not make sense yet. This is a message about surrender, generosity, costly worship, and placing Christ above all. What feels like loss in the moment can become an offering of deep love and lasting impact in the hands of God. #AboveAll #ItDoesntMakeSense #PastorJohnSDickerson #ConnectionPointeChurch NEXT STEPS Have you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?
