How Are You Building? (Matthew 7:24-29)

Building a Strong Foundation in Your Faith

Welcome to Turning Point Church of Galveston, where we believe in building a strong foundation in faith. In Matthew 7:24-29, Jesus tells a parable about two builders: one who built his house on a rock and another who built his house on sand. The storm that came tested the foundation, and only the house built on the rock stood firm. This parable teaches us the importance of building our lives on a strong foundation – a foundation based on faith in Jesus Christ.

Understanding Matthew 7:24-29 in Context

In Matthew 7:24-29, Jesus uses this parable to illustrate the difference between those who hear His words and put them into practice, and those who hear His words but do not act upon them. The message is clear: a strong foundation in faith requires more than just hearing; it requires action.

Jesus represents the rock, the solid foundation upon which we should build our lives. He is the cornerstone of our faith, offering stability and security in an ever-changing world. By following His teachings and living according to His word, we build a strong foundation that will withstand the storms of life.
