The Road Less Traveled

We want the glory without the grit. We want the resurrection without the crucifixion. We want "Amazon Prime Christianity"—fast, easy, and comfortable. But if you walk with Jesus long enough, you realize that while salvation is free, discipleship will cost you everything. In this message, Rich Gould performs a spiritual "surgery" on Matthew 7:13–23, unpacking one of the most famous—and frightening—teachings of Jesus: The Narrow Gate. If you have ever wondered why the Christian life feels so difficult, or if you’ve ever worried about the warning "I never knew you," this sermon provides the answer. We discover that the "narrow road" isn't just small—it is pressurized. In this sermon, we cover: 🍇 The Theology of Pressure: The Greek meaning of Thlimmenē (crushing) and why God uses pressure to squeeze the world out of you. 🚧 The Broad Road Deception: Why "following your heart" is actually the path to destruction. 📜 Resume vs. Relationship: Why religious people with great "spiritual resumes" (miracles, prophecy) are rejected by Jesus. 🏳️ Active Yielding: Understanding that baptism is not a work you do for God, but a submission you yield to God. The Gospel is free, but it is not cheap. It’s time to get off the broad road.
