Pray – Week 4 | How Do I Know What's Best?

When your five‑year plan reads like a checklist of jobs, houses, and status—but inside you’re quietly wondering if any of it will finally satisfy—you’re hearing the tension this sermon names. The clutter of advice, self‑improvement hacks, and even religious rules promises enough, but leaves you chasing benchmarks that never fill you. The talk calls out both empty human philosophies (success, horoscopes, self‑measures) and legalistic fix‑it formulas as culprits that distract from what really matters. The message turns to Paul’s prayer in Colossae and points to a different aim: being filled with the knowledge of God’s will so you become more like Jesus. Rather than a treasure map of decisions, God’s priority is inward change—fullness found in Christ who gave himself away. Expect a clear, compassionate challenge to let go of techniques and embrace the costly, freeing way of Christ, with a surprising invitation to what filling your life could actually look like.
