Grand Opening Sermon

Preached on Lifewell's opening Sunday, this message frames the church's first day around a deliberately countercultural idea: the life you're looking for is found by laying it down. Danny Cox casts the vision not as an achievement to celebrate but as a people called to spend themselves—rooted in Jesus' words that whoever loses their life for his sake will find it. An invitation, on day one, to measure a life well-lived not by what's gained or built but by what's surrendered, and to step into that calling together.
