President’s Chapel 2025-2026 - Rev. Tom Herbert - Faithfulness in Uncharted Territory

The mission hasn’t changed—but the terrain has. In this sermon, Rev. Tom Herbert challenges students to recognize that the church today is navigating uncharted territory, much like Lewis and Clark confronting the Rocky Mountains instead of an expected river route. While the call to make disciples remains the same, the methods must adapt for a post-Christian world where the church is no longer central to culture. Drawing from Habakkuk 2:1–3, the message reframes leadership not as speed or visibility, but as discernment, faithfulness, and trust in God’s timing. The call is steady and countercultural: don’t rush ahead, don’t cling to old maps, and don’t give up. Instead, stand firm, seek God, and trust Him to lead you through the mountains ahead. ★ Support this podcast ★
