Sunday, 9:30 A.M. Worship Service - "Cooked, But Still Covered"
Youth Pastor Prentice Gilbert
This message confronts the emotional exhaustion many believers silently carry while challenging the stigma around mental health, burnout, counseling, emotional wounds, and anxiety within faith communities.
The sermon reframes “being cooked” not as spiritual failure, but as evidence that many people are carrying loads they were never meant to carry alone. Jesus does not invite perfect people — He invites weary people.
The central declaration:
“I might be cooked, but I’m not done.”
Main Sermon Points
1. Stop Pretending You’re Not Tired
2. Stop Calling Everything a Demon When Sometimes It’s a Wound
3. Stop Carrying What Christ Already Invited You to Bring
