Questions Jesus Asked and Why They Matter: Who Do You Say I Am?

Who Do You Say I Am? | Questions Jesus Asked and Why They Matter (Part 6) Speaker: Dr. Carroll Marr Text: Matthew 16:13-20 Location: Southcliff Church (Fort Worth, TX) About This Episode Jesus never asked questions to gather information—He asked them to bring about transformation. In this powerful message, Dr. Carroll Marr dives into the ultimate, final exam question Jesus posed to His disciples against the dramatic backdrop of Caesarea Philippi: "But who do you say I am?" Standing near a pagan hub known in the ancient world as the "gates of hell," Simon Peter answers with the ultimate confession of faith: "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Dr. Marr breaks down this foundational encounter into three distinct parts: The Question: Moving from the public opinion on the street to an intensely personal, unavoidable demand for a verdict. The Confession: How the Holy Spirit convicts our hearts and leads us to declare Jesus as Messiah, featuring the powerful real-life faith journeys of comedian Jeff Allen and leadership expert Ken Blanchard. The Proclamation: Discovering the fascinating Greek play on words between Petros (small pebble) and Petra(massive boulder), uncovering the true rock upon which Christ builds His unshakeable Church. This is a question every single person must answer, and your response determines eternity. Who do you say He is?
