Do I Really Belong Here?

This message continues a seven-week series centered on the questions that shape how we see ourselves, God, and one another.

In Part 4, we wrestle with a deeply human question: Am I wanted?

Not just tolerated. Not useful. But genuinely wanted—for who we are, not what we contribute.

Tracing this question through the Old Testament, the life of Jesus, and the early church, this teaching challenges the idea that belonging is earned through success, strength, or religious performance. Instead, it reveals a different starting point: belonging as identity. You belong because you are human. Because you are created. Because you are seen.

Jesus disrupts every system that decides who’s in and who’s out—and invites us into a community where belonging comes first, and transformation follows.

The point isn’t change.

The point is belonging.

Change grows from there.
