The Meaning Of It All || From The Archives

In this week's episode form the archives Pastor Erwin explores the idea that Jesus actually makes sense—not because He answers every question, but because He brings clarity to life's complexities. We often believe we already understand life, measuring it by success, wealth, or relationships. Yet, Jesus challenges that perspective, offering a life we don’t even realize we’re missing—one filled with meaning beyond temporary highs. His teachings remind us that life isn't just about existence but about discovering the depth and purpose we were created for.

Beyond life, Jesus also makes sense when it comes to love—something we all long for but often struggle to sustain. We chase moments of deep connection, only to find that human love can be unpredictable and fleeting. Jesus reveals a love that isn’t dependent on circumstances, one that is constant and transformative. The same applies to meaning—we assign significance to things like power, money, and fame, only to realize they don’t truly satisfy. Jesus presents a different equation: “What does it profit to gain the whole world but lose yourself?” His words expose our tendency to seek fulfillment in what ultimately leaves us empty.

In the end, everything—our ambitions, relationships, and pursuits—only finds its true purpose when Jesus helps us bring the pieces together. He doesn’t call us to abandon our passions but to see them through a different lens, one where we live fully, love deeply, and find meaning beyond ourselves. The search for truth and purpose isn’t over—it’s an ongoing journey of asking, seeking, and discovering that Jesus truly makes sense.
