Discouragement

Pastor Daniel Goulding · Apr 24, 2025

Drawing from Luke 24's road-to-Emmaus account, this Easter sermon argues that when life's circumstances fall short of our expectations, discouragement can blind us to God's presence and promises. Yet Jesus — risen from the dead — actively seeks out discouraged people, walks alongside them, and waits to be invited into their pain. Just as He opened the eyes of two defeated followers the moment they welcomed Him in, He offers the same resurrection power to anyone willing to receive Him today.
