How do you know the Bible is the Word of God? That’s a question Christians should be prepared to answer, particularly since we claim to base our lives, and our eternity, on the truths contained in the words of Scripture. In this message from 2 Timothy 3:16, David Platt offers seven reasons we can be confident that the Bible is God’s Word. Whether you’re a Christian looking to strengthen your trust in God’s Word or a non-Christian who is curious about the claims of Christianity, the spiritual stakes are too high for us to be left wondering about the Bible’s authority. These words have been breathed out by God himself.

What are you here for? What is your purpose in life? Despite what our culture tells us, we were not created to “live for the moment” or to pursue health, wealth, and fulfillment in this life only. In this message from Psalm 67, David Platt challenges us to consider the ultimate goal for which we were created—to seek and enjoy God—and the ultimate mission that Christians and churches have been given—to spread and exalt the glory of God among all nations. The question all of us need to ask is, What might it look like for me to leverage my life and my vocation in light of these glorious realities? This sermon was given at the Sunday Service for the South by Southwest conference.

Jesus said that we must renounce everything if we want to be his disciple. This is the clear teaching of Scripture, but do we believe this? Do we really believe that following Jesus means turning away from the gods of comfort and self, or have we come up with a Jesus of our own devising? In this message from Luke 14:33, David Platt challenges us to hear the call of Jesus: “Any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.” Following Jesus is costly, but in the end, it is the path to true and eternal satisfaction.

David Platt Messages - The Goodness of God in Scripture
play

01/29/25 • 35 min

What does it mean that the Lord is our shepherd, and how should this give Christians comfort today? In this message from Psalm 23, David Platt points us to the ways that Psalm 23 highlights the goodness of God and Jesus Christ as the good shepherd who has laid down his life for his sheep. When we realize Who is leading us through life’s dark valleys, we can be confident in his salvation and provision through every trial.

Jesus warns us in today’s passage that “many” will be shocked on the last day to find out that they never truly belonged to him. Though they called him “Lord” and performed many works in his name, he will claim that he never knew them. How, then, can we be confident that we are truly following Jesus? In this message from David Platt from Matthew 7:12–27, we are confronted with the decision about whether we will enter by the narrow gate or the wide gate—whether we will truly follow Jesus and live by his teaching or merely maintain a superficial attachment to him. Gratefully, entering God’s kingdom isn’t ultimately based on our own obedience but on the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. Salvation comes by relying on him.

05/21/25 • 26 min

Are you anxious about anything in your life right now? Are you fearful about something coming in the days ahead? If not, then it’s likely you’ll be tempted toward anxiety and fear in the near future. There is so much we can’t control in our lives, but as Psalm 131 reminds us, we weren’t made to control our lives or to be autonomous. We were made to humbly rely on God, for this is the only way to experience true and lasting rest. In this message, David Platt encourages us to imitate the Psalmist in Psalm 131 by entrusting our lives to the Lord. Regardless of the trials we may face, those who belong to Christ by faith can rest in God’s sovereign goodness and all-sufficient salvation.

David Platt Messages - Paralysis and Forgiveness

05/07/19 • 53 min

During his earthly ministry, Jesus demonstrated His power in a variety of ways, including healing the sick, curing the demon-possessed, and raising the dead. However, we will miss the greater significance of the authority of Jesus if we only focus on the physical needs that He met. In this message from Mark 2:1–12, David Platt looks at Christ’s forgiveness and healing of a paralytic. Like Jesus, we should reach out compassionately reach out to meet urgent physical needs in the world. But this cannot be our primary or ultimate goal. As followers of Christ, we must be faithful to proclaim the gospel of the One who can meet the greatest need of every sinner––the forgiveness of sins.

07/22/19 • 50 min

When it comes to Jesus, no one can remain neutral. We will eventually submit to Him gladly in faith, or else we will become increasingly cold and even hostile to Him. In this sermon on Matthew 12, David Platt points us to the identity of Christ and to the different responses that people had to Him, including the unpardonable sin of blaspheming the Holy Spirit. We are not only warned against rejecting the Spirit’s testimony to Christ, but also we are invited to take Him as our Savior and King.

David Platt Messages - Sexuality in Our Culture: An Open Door for the Gospel
play

11/04/19 • 62 min

Our culture insists that true freedom is found when we get to express ourselves and follow our own desires. Scripture’s teaching on sex is seen as restrictive and outdated, and many people are even wanting to determine their own gender. In this message from Colossians 4:2–6 and other selected passages, David Platt points us to Scripture so that we can understand God’s good design for sexuality and gender. The One who created us not only has the authority to set the parameters for us, but also He has the wisdom to know what is best for us. As Christians, this is increasingly becoming a costly conviction. Nevertheless, we must believe and proclaim the truth––that true and lasting satisfaction can only be found in Jesus Christ.
