Trust isn't just a feeling—it's a foundation. In this powerful opening to the "Immeasurably More" vision series, Pastor Ryan reveals why God often takes us the long way around and reminds us that those frustrating detours might actually be His mercy preparing us for what's next. From the Israelites' wilderness journey to a compelling chair demonstration, this teaching will help you move from believing in God to trusting in God. Whether you've been stuck asking "Why is this happening?" or ready to ask "What are You developing in me?"—this message is packed with biblical truth, practical wisdom, and a defining challenge. God's not just asking you to believe He exists. He's asking you to trust that He's able.
Scripture Reference: Exodus 13:17-22, Ephesians 3:20
Big Idea: There's a massive difference between believing in God and trusting in God—and trust is the foundation for immeasurably more.
Key Quote: "God won't bless a path that He didn't choose. We spend life exhausted because we're carrying a weight God never intended us to carry."
