Summary
The sermon explores the theme of breakthrough by addressing why believers may not experience the abundant life Jesus promises, even when following Him. Drawing from 2 Peter 1:3-8 and referencing Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, it identifies sinful or misguided desires as the root cause of life's brokenness, leading us to seek fulfillment in things other than God. The practical takeaway is that while we are desire-driven beings, true satisfaction and escape from corruption come from aligning our deepest wants with God, who made us to find our home and rest in Him.
