This Is True: INTRO

We are living in a time when truth feels harder to find than ever. Between the noise of the internet, the pace of cultural change, and the polarization of our communities, many of us feel the weight of not knowing what to trust — or even how to think about truth anymore. We scroll, we listen, we react, and yet clarity often feels just out of reach. Whether you’ve felt confused, overwhelmed, frustrated, or even discouraged about what’s real and what’s reliable, you’re not alone. These next six weeks are designed to gently walk with you through this very human experience, not with judgment or oversimplification, but with the compassion and wisdom of Jesus Himself.

In this series, we’re going to explore a different way of approaching truth — not as a weapon to win arguments, not as a badge to prove we’re right, and not as something we must grasp perfectly in order to belong. Instead, we’ll journey into truth as Scripture presents it: truth as relationship, truth as humility, truth as community, and ultimately truth as a Person — Jesus Christ. Together, we will look at how modern life has shaped our way of knowing, how our stories and biases impact what we see, how the internet forms our imagination, and how the Spirit invites us into a deeper, freer, more Christ-centered way of seeing the world. You don’t need to be a philosopher or theologian to take this journey — you just need an open heart and a willingness to let Jesus lead.

Our hope for these weeks is simple: that you would breathe a little easier, listen a little deeper, and learn to recognize the voice of Jesus with greater clarity. We pray that as you engage in the sermons, small groups, devotionals, and conversations, you’ll discover that truth in the Christian story is not something to fear — it is something that leads us into freedom. Let’s step into these six weeks together with curiosity, grace, and the expectation that God still reveals Himself to ordinary people who seek Him. Welcome to the journey.
