A Troubled Soul and the Choice That Changed Everything

From John 12:20–33, this message centers on Christ’s troubled soul and His decisive response in the face of suffering. When Jesus asks, “What shall I say?” He does not choose relief or escape, but submission to the purpose of God—“For this purpose I have come to this hour.” The sermon shows how Christ’s willingness to die, like a grain of wheat falling into the ground, is the only way much fruit could come—and how believers are that fruit. Set in the context of the Lord’s Table, it calls Christians to follow Christ’s example: to bring real fears to God, yet choose His will over comfort, trusting Him to be glorified even through trials, loss, and death to self.
