Wrestling With: Who God Is

Trevor Hersey

Most of us never consciously chose what we believe about God. We absorbed it through family, culture, church experiences, disappointment, unanswered prayers, and moments where doing things “God’s way” still hurt. In this message, we wrestle honestly with the question beneath everything else: Who is God really? Is He a genie we try to activate, a vending machine we manage, a landlord we fear, or something far better?


Jesus doesn’t leave this vague. He shows us God as Father, Shepherd, Covenant Keeper, and Guide, not transactional, distant, or conditional. If we get God wrong, everything downstream suffers, from prayer to faith to how we walk through pain. This teaching invites you to let Jesus define God again, examine the assumptions you’ve been living from, and rebuild your life on who God actually is, not who experience, fear, or survival taught you He might be.
