One Thing - Standalone Sermons

In this sermon, Bates emphasizes the "One Thing" that truly matters: the singular pursuit of Jesus Christ as our ultimate source of rest and purpose. He explores how this focus transforms three specific areas of our lives. First, he addresses how we find peace when we are in trouble, shifting our gaze from the storm to the Savior. Next, he speaks to the restlessness in our hearts, showing how intimacy with God settles internal anxieties. Finally, he discusses how the "One Thing" changes us while serving, ensuring our ministry flows from love rather than duty.
