## Resource

What happens when one bad moment, one frustration, or one mistake starts to derail everything? In this message, Pastor Aaron shares a story with a powerful reminder: it’s not about the red lights... it’s about God’s presence. Drawing from Philippians 3, Isaiah 43, Hebrews 12, and John 10, this sermon challenges us to stop letting our past define us and start actively pursuing what God has placed in front of us. Too often, we allow yesterday’s failures, hurts, or circumstances to shape our identity and limit our future. But Jesus didn’t die so we could live stuck. He died so we could live free and abundantly. If you’re tired of being derailed by the past, or walking in circles instead of forward, this message is for you. It’s time to stop replaying the past and start stepping into what God is doing now.
