Marcel:

Welcome to the Deeper Dive Podcast brought to you by the OC Church of Christ.

2

:

The Deeper Dive Podcast is about going

deeper into God's word, learning new

3

:

insight and taking a fresh look at the

verses that impact our daily lives.

4

:

Today's episode is part two from our

series "Learning The Art Of Motivation

5

:

from Jesus" by Reese Neeland.

6

:

If you haven't listened to the

last episode, I would encourage

7

:

you to do that before you continue.

8

:

With this episode, this episode is

titled "Made To Make a Difference."

9

:

Friendly reminder, that this message

was a sermon delivered by Reese.

10

:

So get your scuba gear and

let's dive deep into God's word.

11

:

Here's Made To Make a Difference.

12

:

Reese: We're gonna go big today.

13

:

We're gonna go deep today.

14

:

I want you to consider something

that may be frankly uncomfortable for

15

:

you, and I just want you to answer

this question in your own heart.

16

:

Are you really a happy person?

17

:

Are you a happy person today?

18

:

Have you, have you found happiness?

19

:

Are you experiencing happiness?

20

:

And that's a tough question

to even honestly consider.

21

:

And if you will, consider it.

22

:

I'm gonna give you credit for having

some courage because many people don't

23

:

even want to consider the possibility.

24

:

They don't even want to think about

it 'cause it's too painful, frankly,

25

:

because it seems surprisingly

difficult to find happiness.

26

:

Have you found that to be true?

27

:

I've certainly found that to be

true and sometimes success in life.

28

:

We have goals, we have dreams.

29

:

Sometimes success can be

especially disappointing.

30

:

Because we thought that when we achieved

this, we thought when we possess that

31

:

we thought we got to a certain place

and a certain place in life and certain

32

:

things happen that we would be happy.

33

:

But sometimes it's not.

34

:

Sometimes we don't find that, and

it's, it's sometimes it's not even

35

:

necessarily our, our, our lack of

happiness is not necessarily powerfully

36

:

poignant, but we just, if we're

really honest and we'll stop and

37

:

consider in our quiet moments, we.

38

:

We're experiencing some vague discontent.

39

:

There's something missing.

40

:

There's some nameless longing that we have

not yet experienced, and so I believe that

41

:

Jesus is gonna help us with that today.

42

:

This is not the only answer, but Jesus

is gonna give you a part of the answer

43

:

today of what we all need to understand

if we're really gonna be happy.

44

:

Sound good?

45

:

So in John chapter four, some

of you may know the story.

46

:

Uh, let me just give you a

little, a little background.

47

:

There are four different accounts

of the life and ministry of Jesus,

48

:

Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

49

:

And if you get a chance to read

them, they're all great there.

50

:

There are a lot of similarities and

there are a lot of differences, but

51

:

when you put it all together, you

get a picture of who Jesus is, right?

52

:

And so I love that.

53

:

I love.

54

:

Studying of Jesus.

55

:

I love learning about Jesus.

56

:

I love sharing about Jesus.

57

:

I love preaching about Jesus.

58

:

And so John is kind of unusual.

59

:

If you don't know, I'll just,

uh, maybe explain a little bit.

60

:

Matthew, Mark and Luke are very similar,

those three, and if you read them,

61

:

there are a lot of similar stories.

62

:

And there's even a lot

of similar verbiage.

63

:

And so they obviously had each

other's accounts in front of them.

64

:

Most scholars believe that Matthew, Mark,

Luke and John were written significantly

65

:

be, uh, for John was written.

66

:

John was one of the apostles, uh,

close to Jesus, close friend of Jesus.

67

:

And perhaps this is even 20 years later

that John comes along and he's got, he's

68

:

seen Matthew, Mark and Luke's account

of the life and ministry of Jesus.

69

:

And he says, it's almost like he says,

you know, there's some stories that still

70

:

need to be told about who Jesus was.

71

:

And so what you find in John is some

very unique accounts of stories about

72

:

Jesus that you don't find in Matthew.

73

:

Mark and Luke in this story

in John four about Jesus.

74

:

This is from early in his ministry

and he's meeting this woman that

75

:

we call the Samaritan woman.

76

:

And uh, he and his, uh.

77

:

Followers.

78

:

His disciples were

traveling from Jerusalem.

79

:

They're going up to, uh,

Galilee in Northern Israel.

80

:

And so they passed through this area

called Samaria, and they meet this woman.

81

:

. So we're gonna pick up in

chapter four, verse four.

82

:

It says, now he had Jesus

to go through Samaria.

83

:

So he came to town in

Samaria called Sychar.

84

:

Near the plot of ground, Jacob

had given to his son Joseph.

85

:

Jacob's, well was there and Jesus

tired as he was from the journey.

86

:

Sat down by the, well, it

was about the sixth hour.

87

:

That means it was about noon.

88

:

They started their clock at, uh, six A.M.

89

:

Not sure what time you start your day,

but that's when they started theirs.

90

:

And so it says then as some, when a

Samaritan woman came to draw water,

91

:

Jesus said, will you give me a drink?

92

:

His disciples had gone

into the town to buy food.

93

:

So we're gonna stop there.

94

:

And I want you to understand the scene.

95

:

It's very significant that he, Jesus

stops to talk to this Samaritan woman.

96

:

If you weren't aware, there

was a tremendous cultural

97

:

divide between men and women.

98

:

Women were widely regarded as

second-class citizens in that day.

99

:

And so Jesus actually in

Christianity, were part of the.

100

:

The, the forces that came to

bear that really improved a

101

:

lot of women in the world.

102

:

I have read that.

103

:

It was said that during that time, one of

the Jewish leaders, a, a teacher of the

104

:

law, that it was such, the divide between

men and women was so great that if he was

105

:

walking out in public and that his wife

passed by, he would not acknowledge her.

106

:

This is where all the women groan.

107

:

I'm trying to imagine how

that would work with Mary Kay.

108

:

Right.

109

:

And so anyway, so there's that

divide, but then there's this racial

110

:

divide, which we understand that

it's still part of our world, uh,

111

:

between the Samaritans and the Jews.

112

:

But Jesus breaks through all that.

113

:

And Jesus has this wonderful

conversation with his woman.

114

:

While his disciples, his followers,

his companions, had gone into town

115

:

to buy food 'cause they were hungry.

116

:

Because what do men, what

happens to men around noon?

117

:

They get hungry and angry

if they don't get food.

118

:

And so we're gonna end our service

about noon because I know what happens.

119

:

There might be some women that are

spiritual enough to stay if I keep

120

:

going, but if I go much past noon,

men are just gonna start filing out.

121

:

We're gonna lose them.

122

:

They're gonna go find the nearest

groceries that they can find, okay?

123

:

So he is hungry, so he has this

great conversation with this woman.

124

:

And we're not gonna look at that

conversation today, but I, we're

125

:

gonna skip to the, to the end of the

story, but I wanna say if you wanna

126

:

know better how to reach out and

share your faith and help other people

127

:

who don't know Jesus to find Jesus.

128

:

This is a great conversation.

129

:

And John, it's not in the

other, you can't find it.

130

:

Matthew, Mark and Luke.

131

:

John has a very specific account

of what this happened and what this

132

:

conversation he had with this woman was.

133

:

And of course there's a great result

to it and the woman comes to faith.

134

:

But now for our purposes, we're gonna

go all the way to the end of the story.

135

:

We're gonna go over to verse twenty-seven.

136

:

So we get to the end of the story.

137

:

Jesus has this great conversation

with this woman, and we

138

:

get to the very end of it.

139

:

And then verse twenty-seven, it says

Just then his disciples returned.

140

:

And we're surprised to find

him talking with a woman.

141

:

It was surprising because that just

culturally wasn't done in that day, right?

142

:

Mm-Hmm.

143

:

But no one asked, what do you want?

144

:

Or Why are you talking with her?

145

:

Then leaving her water jar.

146

:

Remember, the woman had come to draw water

from the, well, the woman went back to

147

:

town and said to the people, come see a

man who told me everything I ever did.

148

:

Could this be the Christ?

149

:

They came out of the town and made

their way toward him, toward Jesus.

150

:

Meanwhile, his disciples urged him.

151

:

Rabbi, that means teacher, eat something.

152

:

But Jesus said to them, listen.

153

:

Now, Jesus said to them, I have food

to eat that you know nothing about.

154

:

Then his disciples said to each other,

could someone have brought him food?

155

:

You can understand why they were confused.

156

:

Right?

157

:

Right.

158

:

We were talking about men earlier, right?

159

:

It's science, it's simple math.

160

:

There's hungry men.

161

:

They go to get food.

162

:

They bring food back, and

Jesus is no longer hungry.

163

:

There's only one conclusion

you can come to, right?

164

:

Somebody already brought him food.

165

:

So that's what they're, they seem not so

much concerned about what's going on with

166

:

a woman and all that as they are about,

I mean, we went to a lot of trouble.

167

:

Right.

168

:

You know, the first McDonald's

we went to wasn't open.

169

:

Right.

170

:

And I don't know why it was Sunday.

171

:

Maybe it was a Chick-fil-A Chick-fil-A

because if you try to get that

172

:

Christian chicken on Sunday,

you're not getting it on Sunday.

173

:

So whatever the problem, so he said, we

went to all this trouble and we went to

174

:

get this food and we brought it back,

and now he's not interested in eating.

175

:

And Jesus says this thing that they,

this is early in the ministry of

176

:

Jesus and they didn't get it yet,

but they got it later and we need

177

:

to all make sure we get it today.

178

:

He says, look, I have food.

179

:

I have food that you know nothing about.

180

:

You see where we're going?

181

:

Yeah.

182

:

Then the next thing it says, Jesus

says, verse 36, my food said,

183

:

Jesus is to do the will of him who

sent me and to finish his work.

184

:

Do not say four months more than

the harvest, I'll tell you, open

185

:

your eyes and look at the fields.

186

:

They're ripe for the harvest.

187

:

Even now, the reaper draws wages.

188

:

Even now, he harvests the crop for

eternal life so that the sower and

189

:

the reaper may be glad together.

190

:

That's the saying.

191

:

One sows and another reaps is true.

192

:

Yes, I sent you to reap what

you have not worked for.

193

:

Others have done the hard work and you

have reaped the benefits from their labor.

194

:

And as the story goes, the woman leaves

and she goes and tells the story of her

195

:

interaction with Jesus and the fact that

this, that she's become convinced that.

196

:

This very well might be the

Messiah, the promised one.

197

:

And so Jesus is there and the disciples

are coming back with the food.

198

:

But there's something else

that happens on the horizon.

199

:

It says the whole town starts coming

out and you just gotta picture it.

200

:

If you're Jesus and you're there and

you desperately want to, to share your

201

:

faith and you want other people to

know the message, the good news, and

202

:

so here they come and they're just,

they're coming over the, the hill.

203

:

They're coming over the horizon,

just imagine what Jesus is feeling.

204

:

Jesus is feeling like, this is why I came.

205

:

This is what I'm here for.

206

:

This is what matters most.

207

:

This is what I wanna do.

208

:

See, it turns out when it comes

to happiness, God has made us all

209

:

so that you will never be happy.

210

:

You will never experience joy.

211

:

Until you understand the

need to make a difference.

212

:

We were made to make a difference.

213

:

Yeah.

214

:

Amen.

215

:

God made us to make a difference.

216

:

That's what Jesus is

trying to tell these guys.

217

:

He says, you guys don't

understand this yet.

218

:

It's early in the ministry.

219

:

You don't get it yet.

220

:

I have food, I have

some, I have soul food.

221

:

How many of you like soul food?

222

:

I like soul food.

223

:

I'm from the south.

224

:

I even wrote down I, I see some

of my favorite soul food, if you

225

:

know what that chicken fried steak.

226

:

Oh yeah.

227

:

Collard greens.

228

:

Fried okra.

229

:

Hush puppies.

230

:

Yeah, see there's a lot of Southern

people grew up in Southern California.

231

:

They're confused now.

232

:

Sweet potato pie.

233

:

. You know, those are maybe

foods that we crave.

234

:

Jesus understands something.

235

:

He wants us to understand it.

236

:

You are created, whether you're

a Christian or not a Christian.

237

:

You are created with a hole in your soul.

238

:

And one of the things that's

gonna be required if you're ever

239

:

going to be fulfilled is you're

ever going to be happy, is you're

240

:

gonna have to live in such a way.

241

:

That you are making a difference

in the lives of others.

242

:

Even people who are not

Christians have figured this out.

243

:

There are many people who have

professed no faith, and we claim

244

:

no faith, but they're doing great

things and they're serving the poor.

245

:

They're serving the community, or

they're making a difference, and

246

:

you know what they're experiencing?

247

:

Fulfillment from that, right?

248

:

That hole in their soul.

249

:

Is being fulfilled.

250

:

You know, I have friends that are

a part of Alcoholics Anonymous,

251

:

AA, which is a great program or

a great recovery kind of program.

252

:

But one of the things, you may or may

not know this, but one of the things,

253

:

if somebody's going through that program

and they're recovering and they get to a

254

:

certain point, you know what they ask you

to do, to turn around and be a sponsor to

255

:

help somebody else, because that's where

you're gonna continue with your recovery.

256

:

That's where you're

gonna find fulfillment.

257

:

I remember clearly the first

time that I perhaps experienced

258

:

this in my Christianity.

259

:

I grew up going to church and uh, it

was sort of a traditional type church.

260

:

And, uh, unlike this church,

they didn't give us many choices.

261

:

Um, so I was kind of, it was kind

of an empty experience for me.

262

:

And, and I don't wanna blame the

church 'cause I was interested,

263

:

frankly, at that point in my life.

264

:

I was in my twenties, I was probably

more interested in sin than I was.

265

:

Jesus.

266

:

And so anyway, I came to a

certain point, I went to graduate

267

:

school at University of Florida.

268

:

So I, I, I went to University of

Florida and I went to the, the ministry

269

:

there and it was a great ministry and

was very focused on reaching out and

270

:

helping others to become Christian.

271

:

And so, you know, I'm just sort

of trying to figure this out.

272

:

I love the church and I love the

spirit, and I love the relationships,

273

:

and they taught me how to have

a personal connection with God.

274

:

And they taught me how we were helping

each other to be our best spiritually.

275

:

And we were reaching out to help people

that weren't saved to become saved.

276

:

And I was just sort of

trying to figure it out.

277

:

So one of the things that I did was

early on, there was an older gentleman

278

:

who was studying the Bible, thinking

about his decision to become a Christian.

279

:

And there were a group of guys that

were studying the Bible with him and

280

:

helping him and key relationships.

281

:

I only met him at church, it'd be

like if somebody was visiting here.

282

:

And I would talk to him a few minutes,

maybe even before or after church.

283

:

And he was telling me about his

journey and he was telling me about

284

:

his, uh, thinking about his decision

he wanted to make, whether Jesus

285

:

would be Lord of his life or not.

286

:

And.

287

:

I, You know, I was a brand

new Christian myself.

288

:

I just made, I was sort of trying to say

something that would be helpful, right.

289

:

You ever in that position where

you just pray, God help me to say

290

:

something that would be helpful.

291

:

So I was sort of that.

292

:

I wasn't sure at all.

293

:

And so we would talk and we would

share, and this went on for several

294

:

weeks and this was back in the day.

295

:

So we may not be able to relate to this.

296

:

Some of you might, right?

297

:

Where at the end of the service

there would be an invitation.

298

:

And so the guy who was the preacher,

somebody who was looking and acting like

299

:

me, would say, Hey, if you want to either

repent publicly of sin or you wanna make

300

:

a decision to make Jesus the Lord of your

life, come forward during this last song.

301

:

And so this, this is what we had going

on, and I remember where I was sitting

302

:

in the auditorium that we're in, and

this guy that I had talked to stepped

303

:

out of the aisle and walked forward.

304

:

I knew that he was coming forward to be

baptized and a little bit more background.

305

:

You know, I had been in sin, living in

sin for many years, and my heart was hard.

306

:

I had not been able to

cry for a long, long time.

307

:

There were even times I wanted

to cry and I couldn't cry, just

308

:

couldn't break through the,

the heart, and all of a sudden.

309

:

When this man stepped forward and

came, the tears just, just flowed.

310

:

First time in years.

311

:

What happened there?

312

:

I wasn't even one of the people.

313

:

No doubt.

314

:

You know, they didn't have any sharing

before his baptism, but if they had, he

315

:

probably would not have mentioned me.

316

:

I mean, I wasn't even one, but

I thought in some way, in some.

317

:

Some small way, maybe I had a

positive influence, right on this

318

:

guy making the most important

decision that he can ever make in

319

:

his life, and that is to be baptized

into Christ and to make Jesus Lord.

320

:

And my soul, there was a hole in my soul.

321

:

Yeah.

322

:

And I figured it out that day.

323

:

Let me just say it.

324

:

I wanna be so clear that

nobody misunderstands me.

325

:

You'll never be happy.

326

:

You'll certainly never be happy the way

God intended you to be happy until you

327

:

deliberately decide in your actions and

in your life to live in such a way as to

328

:

make a difference in the lives of others.

329

:

Now, sharing your faith.

330

:

And helping somebody.

331

:

It's not the only way you

can make a difference.

332

:

And we need to understand that we make

a difference in a lot of different ways.

333

:

You make a difference

when you help the poor.

334

:

You make a difference when you serve

somebody who has a need and you make a

335

:

difference when you visit somebody who's

sick and, and you make a difference when

336

:

there's a somebody else that you know

that's struggling with their faith and.

337

:

You know, they're a Christian,

but they're got issues going on.

338

:

And you, you show up and you sit down and

you love them, and you pray with them,

339

:

and you talk with them and you know, and

you, you say that prayer, God help me.

340

:

I don't know what I'm saying.

341

:

Help me to say something that's helpful.

342

:

That's right.

343

:

Lot of different ways you

can make a difference.

344

:

Right.

345

:

But let me tell you something, you will

never make any more significant difference

346

:

in anybody's life than when you make a

difference in somebody's eternal address.

347

:

That's right.

348

:

When you help somebody to find Jesus,

when you help somebody to find salvation,

349

:

that's the gift that keeps on giving.

350

:

Yes, it's, that's the gift that

keeps on giving all through eternity.

351

:

It's not the only way to make a

difference, but there's no more

352

:

significant way to make a difference.

353

:

Church, I hope we don't forget

that when we moved here in 19

354

:

eighty-nine, some of you, when we

moved here in:

355

:

There were 50 of us but you know

what's happened since 19 eighty-nine.

356

:

Yeah.

357

:

What are we about 6,000 now

all around the Orange County.

358

:

Inland, Empire, Ventura County, Antelope

Valley, wherever you know la, all that.

359

:

How did that happen?

360

:

Well, it happens because God works.

361

:

That's right.

362

:

But it also happens because people

decide that they wanna make a difference.

363

:

That's right.

364

:

And they reach out and they share

their faith with their neighbors.

365

:

Yeah.

366

:

And with their family.

367

:

. And with their friends, and

then with their co-workers.

368

:

Because they wanna make a difference.

369

:

Tell you, the funny thing about it

is, even when you're trying to make a

370

:

difference, just the fa, even if you don't

necessarily feel like you're succeeding

371

:

or it's not really working, the fact

that you're ex extending yourself, the

372

:

fact that you're putting yourself out

there, you're gonna find a fulfillment

373

:

that you will not otherwise have.

374

:

You were made to make a difference.

375

:

That's right.

376

:

You weren't made to live for yourself.

377

:

You weren't made to list.

378

:

You know, I think bucket list is

great, but you know, a lot of times

379

:

bucket list is like all the things

I wanna do for myself before I die.

380

:

It's not wrong to have a bucket list,

but if you're living for your bucket list

381

:

instead of living for Jesus and living for

your neighbor, you're not gonna be happy.

382

:

I don't care if you do

climb Mount Kilimanjaro.

383

:

I don't care if you do jump out of an

airplane, which I don't understand.

384

:

Why would anybody jump out

of a perfectly good airplane?

385

:

How many of you have done that?

386

:

See, there's A, You're strange.

387

:

Strange.

388

:

We love you though.

389

:

We love you though.

390

:

It's not normal.

391

:

I'm just saying.

392

:

But we love you though.

393

:

I don't get it.

394

:

Why would anybody run a marathon?

395

:

I mean, I can understand running

and I try to exercise and, you

396

:

know, run a little bit and you

know, get in shape and all that.

397

:

But a marathon, do you know that's

26.2 miles and you're supposed

398

:

to run it consecutively, right?

399

:

I mean, you're not supposed to

spread it out over a week or a month.

400

:

Why would anybody do that?

401

:

Not on my bucket list, but

we gotta, we gotta live.

402

:

You were made to make a difference.

403

:

Did I say that already?

404

:

Is anybody confused?

405

:

You were made to make a difference.

406

:

You know, I mean, one of the

things that we're doing, uh,

407

:

we've been in my ministry back in.

408

:

Our part of Los Angeles, we've

been serving at a, a Union

409

:

Station Homeless Services in

Pasadena for quite a few years.

410

:

We feed the homeless,

we help the homeless.

411

:

And you know, they started a new

program just recently and because

412

:

people in our church were so active

and so involved in serving with

413

:

them, they, they really like us.

414

:

We we're good volunteers.

415

:

Yes, we're, and so we showed up and so

they said we're starting a new program.

416

:

A mentoring program for people who

are transitioning out of homelessness.

417

:

That's good.

418

:

And so that's, they're gonna,

you know, no longer be dependent

419

:

on others for food and services.

420

:

But the idea is they're gonna

go back into the community,

421

:

resume a more normal lifestyle.

422

:

And they wanted, they asked

specifically if our church would

423

:

supply mentors to mentor people.

424

:

And so.

425

:

I, I, uh, I signed up for that, but I

gotta tell you, I'm back praying again.

426

:

Lord, I have no idea what I'm doing here.

427

:

Just help me to say something

that make a difference, right?

428

:

I've never mentored a

homeless person before.

429

:

Right?

430

:

And the truth is, I'll say this, I, I

don't wanna, you don't have to raise your

431

:

hand, but some of us have experiences

with homelessness and some of, some,

432

:

maybe you have yourself or maybe somebody,

you know, it's a, it's a serious.

433

:

And most of the people that are homeless,

I mean, there's a lot of different reason

434

:

that people are homeless, but one of them

is they've got drug addiction problems

435

:

and they got mental illness problems.

436

:

And just the fact that they're getting

off the street doesn't mean that all

437

:

their drug problems have gone away and

all their mental illness has gone away.

438

:

And I'm sitting here and I, I

mean, I am, can I be honest?

439

:

Pray for me.

440

:

I am nervous.

441

:

I go.

442

:

I am a.

443

:

Normal God-fearing pastor, you

know who lives in Pasadena.

444

:

I got no idea.

445

:

I said, what do you do?

446

:

How do you mentor somebody who's homeless?

447

:

Well, you know, people are homeless

that are making this transition.

448

:

They can feel lonely because all

their friends are still on the street

449

:

and they need somebody to help them.

450

:

It may be as simple as balancing their

checkbook, and it may be as simple as.

451

:

Uh, you know, being a friend and

being there for them and helping

452

:

them to feel like they can do it

because their tendency is gonna be

453

:

to go right back where they were.

454

:

And not just me.

455

:

There's a bunch of people that might

say, okay, this is a new experience.

456

:

We have never done this before, but

we are gonna sign up and we're gonna,

457

:

we're gonna try and I'm gonna pray.

458

:

God, help me to make a difference.

459

:

But, you know, I'm excited about it.

460

:

I'm more excited about this than I am

going down and doing, you know, we, we

461

:

make breakfast on Saturdays a lot of times

on Saturdays and we'll feed the homeless.

462

:

I'm more excited about this.

463

:

Right.

464

:

But you know why I'm more excited, right?

465

:

Because this is a chance to

make a bigger difference.

466

:

To make a life difference, not just

feed somebody who's hungry one meal.

467

:

And so I don't know how

it's gonna turn out.

468

:

Enough said, God made

you to make a difference.

469

:

There's a hole in your soul that

will never, you'll never find

470

:

fulfillment until you live your

life as God intended you to be.

471

:

To live, to be somebody makes a

difference in the lives around you.

472

:

And you know what?

473

:

That's gonna help them.

474

:

You know who else is gonna help?

475

:

It's gonna help you.

476

:

You're gonna find something that

you're not gonna otherwise find

477

:

when you decide to live as God

made you and to make a difference.
