Sermon
Jesus Isn't Who You Think He Is
Mercy Hill Church - Cincinnati

Summary
Jesus reveals his divine identity through transfiguration, appearing with Moses and Elijah on a mountain, with the Father audibly confirming him as the beloved Son. The sermon challenges misconceptions that following Jesus brings ease and comfort, arguing instead that discipleship demands complete obedience and acceptance of suffering, with Jesus as the model and shepherd present through all trials.
Highlights
Often our best ideas about what God should do often stops us from seeing God's best idea for us.
Suffering does not equal abandonment of God, but fellowship with him.
He has died for all of you, therefore he deserves all of you. Every single bit.
