Summary of the Message: 
This week, we continued our series titled, JESUS IS. Pastor Kyle discussed Jesus’ statement, 'I AM THE DOOR,' which reveals His role as the only way into abundant life. The message highlighted three key purposes of doors that apply to Jesus: 1. Doors are Opportunities – Jesus offers salvation, provision, protection, and community. 2. Doors provide Access – Jesus is the only way to experience true, abundant life; all other paths are false and lead to destruction. 3. Doors have a Framework – entering through Jesus requires repentance and faith. As we reflect on this week’s message, discuss the following questions.

Discussion Questions:
1. What does the image of Jesus as the door mean to you personally?

2. Have you ever tried to find abundance in other things besides Jesus (e.g., success, money, relationships)? What was the result?

3. Pastor Kyle talked about false 'thieves' like self-reliance, rule-keeping, and politics. Which of these do you think people struggle with the most today, and why?

4. How can we ensure we are not trying to 'climb in another way' but are actually entering through the true door of Jesus?

5. What does it look like in everyday life to trust Jesus as your provider and protector?

The challenge for the week:
Take time each day this week to identify one way you can shift your trust from a false 'door' (like money, performance, or relationships) back to Jesus. Pray daily asking God to help you rely completely on Him for your security, provision, and identity.
