Instructions | Pastor Ryan McVety
Life doesn’t come as a finished product — assembly is required. In this episode, Pastor Ryan McVety dives into Matthew 4:1-4, where Jesus shows us that the most important thing — even more than physical nourishment — is the Word of God.
Just like an IKEA dresser, life comes with all the pieces you need, but you can’t put it together without the instructions. God, the Creator, gave us a manual — the Bible — with 783,000 words to guide us through every challenge, decision, and season of life.
In this episode, Pastor Ryan unpacks:
✅ Why the Bible isn’t just advice — it’s the blueprint for life.
✅ How Jesus Himself relied on Scripture when He was tested — and why we should too.
✅ Why you can’t expect a “finished product” without following the instructions.
✅ How God’s Word is alive, practical, and essential for every part of life.
🎯 Challenge: Take 10 minutes today to open the Bible and ask God to speak to you through His Word.
