God has given us a vision as a church—Connecting Country to Christ. But every vision comes with a cost. Abraham shows us that the road of faith is long, full of waiting, and often tested at the altar of surrender. Isaac was Abraham’s miracle, yet God asked him to lay that very promise down. In the same way, we’re faced with the question: Do we trust our plans more than God’s? Whether it’s our kids, our money, our comfort, or our church, the altar is where we discover if His vision really rules our lives. This message calls us to lay down what we love most, so that God’s greater plan can come alive in us, our families, and our communities.
