God Does the Heavy Lifting

In this radio clip, Pastor Rob shares a memorable story about building a house with his young son, drawing a parallel between their experience and our relationship with God. Just as Pastor Rob’s son eagerly wore his toolbelt and helped with the construction—even if only in spirit—so too are we invited to join God in the work, not because God needs our strength, but because God delights in our presence and willingness. Pastor Rob emphasizes that while life and faith can feel overwhelming, it is ultimately God who does the heavy lifting, echoing the message from Zechariah: it is not by our own might or effort, but by God’s Spirit that the work is accomplished.
