The Mountain and the Valley

In Week 4 of our Jesus Is King series, Pastor Dustin takes us to the powerful moment of the Transfiguration in Matthew 17. On the mountain, the disciples see the glory of Jesus revealed—but they quickly learn that mountaintop moments with God are meant for revelation, not residence. While those experiences inspire our faith, they were never meant to be the place we stay. Most of life is lived in the valley. It’s in the ordinary, difficult, and sometimes painful seasons where our faith is truly shaped. The good news is that the same Jesus who revealed His glory on the mountain is the same Jesus who walks with us through every valley. When we fix our eyes on Him, we discover that our faith is not measured by how we feel in the high moments, but by how we trust Him in the low ones. If you’ve ever wondered why God gives powerful spiritual moments but then leads us back into everyday life, this message will encourage you. The mountain reveals who Jesus is—but the valley is where we learn to trust Him. Join us as we continue the Jesus Is King series and discover why the Jesus who shined on the mountain is the same Jesus walking beside you today.

From Series: "Jesus is King"

Jesus asked, “But what about you? Who do you say that I am?” (Matthew 16:15) Not what the crowd says. Not what you’ve always heard. Not what’s convenient. Just one question that changes everything: Who is Jesus to you?
