Is Jesus Really The Only Way to Heaven?

May 03, 2026

Sermon Series: You Asked for It: Volume 2

:

John Dickson explores Jesus's exclusive claims, addressing the challenging truth that Jesus is the only way to God. We discover that Jesus didn't leave room for being considered just a good teacher—he clearly claimed to be God, making him either a liar or Lord. The gospels were not written just to inform but to lead people to faith, providing eyewitness testimony that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God. We are challenged to move beyond being impressed with Jesus to truly believing in him, surrendering our lives to his lordship and representing his exclusive claims with both courage and humility.

    Representing Jesus and His Kingdom

    Guest Pastor Ed Stetzer explores what it means to be Christ's ambassadors in 2 Corinthians 5, challenging us to represent Jesus in a world that doesn't share our values. We discover that new life in Christ requires a new perspective shaped by the gospel rather than cultural voices that compete for our attention. We learn that God has entrusted us with the ministry of reconciliation, carrying his appeal to a searching world that needs what only Jesus can provide. We are challenged to examine whether we're more shaped by the world or the Word, and to live as ambassadors whose character makes the invisible Christ visible.

    The Bible and Borders

    This week’s message invites us to view immigration and borders through the lens of Scripture, holding together both compassion and conviction. At the center are two realities we carry in tension: every person bears the image of God and has inherent dignity and worth, and at the same time, the reality of sin means evil exists and must be restrained. We are challenged to look to God’s Word, we invite Him to shape our thinking, words, and actions. We’ll consider God’s heart for the vulnerable, his design for government and borders, and the tension between our role and the government’s role, all while remembering our ultimate allegiance to God’s kingdom. We’ll also recognize the opportunity for the gospel, as immigration brings people from gospel-restricted nations into our communities.

    Baptism

    Pastors Aaron Buer and Luke Koskinen explore the biblical foundation and meaning of believer's baptism through Jesus's Great Commission and example. We discover that baptism isn't just a church tradition but Jesus's clear command for all who follow him, publicly declaring that he is both Savior and Lord of our lives. We learn that baptism by immersion powerfully pictures our union with Christ—dying to the old self and rising to new life through his victory over death. We are challenged to obey Jesus's command to be baptized if we haven't already, and to remember that baptism is a marker we return to when sin pulls hard, reminding us that the old life went under the water.

Parables

The stories Jesus told and what they mean for your life today . Why did Jesus teach in stories? Because the deepest truths about God are often found in the ordinary moments of life. In the parables, Jesus takes everyday things, a lost sheep, a dinner party, a farmer planting seeds and uses them to show us what God is really like and what it means to follow him. This summer, we’re spending seven weeks in the parables from Luke’s gospel. Whether you’ve heard these stories a hundred times or this is your first time, you’re invited to come and hear them fresh. June 27/28–August 8/9
