On This Rock Part V: The Rebuke

Matthew 16:21-27 Part V of the Lenten Sermon Series "On This Rock" Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Sunday, March 22, 2026. "This rebuke isn’t just for [Peter]. It’s for us—when the path feels too hard. It shows up in small, ordinary moments. "When we know we need to say something that is true— but we soften it so much that it is no longer true anymore. When we need to have a hard conversation— and we keep putting it off. When we sense God calling us to step into something— and we quietly step back instead. When we think we’re being kind— when we’re really just being careful. "Not because we don’t care,           but because it might cost us."
