How to Embrace the Unknown

How to Embrace the Unknown

Read 1 Corinthians 15:35-39
Today’s Truth

We hate the unknown.

Everyone has to live with it, and we all have different ways of handling it. Most of us would not hand a car salesman our checkbook and tell him to surprise us with any type of car, nor would we go to a restaurant and tell the waitress to surprise us with anything on the menu.

What happens when we die? What will heaven be like? These are questions Christians, including the church in Corinth, have asked for centuries. God gives us as many details as we need, but maybe not as many as we’d like.

Discussion Questions
  • Is there a particular area or circumstance where the unknown is weighing on you?
  • What is one way you can practice giving your unknowns to God?
Application

We nurture our faith by spending time with Jesus, going to church, and growing in our understanding of the Bible. And as we get to know the character of God, it's easier to trust Him with everything, even the unknown.

About the Author
Chuck Adair

If you ask Chuck his favorite thing in life to do, he would tell you it is the teaching and preaching of the scriptures and to call all people to engage in the great adventure of abiding with Christ. He desires to connect people with the richness, adventure, and fullness of life that comes through Christ alone and to reach the unchurched, de-churched, dead-churched, and unmoved. Chuck is married to his best friend Kristin and has two adult children, Taylor and Linley. Kris and Chuck believe the quality of their marriage rises and falls, not on circumstances or feelings, but based on their daily abiding with Jesus (Jn 15.5).
