A Cart Full of Regret | Cody Betzhold

We make over 30,000 decisions every single day—but the hardest ones aren’t about having too few options… they’re about lacking wisdom. In this powerful message, Pastor Cody kicks off our new series “Decisions” with a sobering look at how hunger, tiredness, anger, and loneliness can lead us to trade what’s eternally valuable for temporary satisfaction—just like Esau traded his birthright for a bowl of stew. Using the story of Esau in Genesis 25, we explore three life-changing truths: • Depletion distorts value • Appetite exaggerates urgency • We treat what’s sacred like it’s common If you’ve ever made a decision you later regretted because you were “hungry” (physically, emotionally, or spiritually), this message is for you. Jesus offers wisdom generously to anyone who asks (James 1:5). Don’t leave life with a cart full of regret—seek Him first and make decisions from a place of fullness.
