Something happens when we truly encounter Jesus.

In this first sermon of the Encounters with Christ series, John Gunter explores John chapter 6 and the feeding of the crowd. The people follow Jesus because they were filled physically. Jesus calls them to something deeper. He points them beyond temporary provision and declares Himself to be the Bread of Life.

This message invites us to look honestly at our own hearts. Are we seeking Jesus for what we can receive, or are we willing to be transformed by who He is? God does not merely satisfy surface-level needs. He offers life, renewal, and eternal hope.

Key Themes:

• The difference between provision and transformation
• The danger of chasing temporary satisfaction
• Jesus as the true Bread of Life
• A call to respond personally to Christ

Faith does not require full understanding. It requires trust.

In this final sermon of the Not Alone series, John Gunter reflects on Psalm 131 and the posture of quiet, humble trust before God. Life often leaves us with unanswered questions and unresolved tension. Scripture does not promise clarity in every season, but it does promise God’s presence.

This message calls listeners to release pride, ambition, and the burden of control. Trust is not passivity. It is an active choice to place our lives in the hands of a faithful God who sees what we cannot and works in ways we do not expect.

Key Themes:

• Letting go of the need to control outcomes
• Learning to quiet the soul in God’s presence
• Trusting God when clarity is missing
• Resting in the promises of a faithful Lord

📖 Scriptures: Psalm 131, Proverbs 20:24, Matthew 11:28–29, Psalm 62:1–2, Psalm 46:10

You were never expected to change by your own strength. God takes responsibility for the transformation.

In this week’s message, John Gunter reminds us that God promised to remove hearts of stone and give hearts of flesh. This is not a demand to perform. It is an invitation to surrender. Whether from Ezekiel or Psalm 51, Scripture shows that change starts when we step aside and allow God to do what only He can. His Spirit lives in us. His grace covers us. And His power transforms us.

Key Themes:

• Transformation is God's work, not ours
• The Spirit of God lives in us and gives us freedom
• Every believer is a work in progress and a new creation
• There is no sin too great for God’s mercy
