Why We Exist Part 1

Share a comment

Why are you still here? That’s not a philosophical riddle—it’s a biblical question. Why didn’t God take you to heaven the moment you were saved? The answer holds the key to your mission, your identity, and your daily choices as a believer. In this compelling episode of The Wisdom Journey, Stephen Davey walks through Matthew 5:13–16 and Acts 1:8 to unpack five clear reasons why Christians exist in a world that’s drifting further from God.

You’ll discover that your presence in this world isn’t accidental or optional—it’s intentional. You are salt, meant to slow moral decay. You are light, meant to pierce spiritual darkness. You’re not just a teacher, a builder, or a parent—you’re a witness of God’s power and glory. You’ll learn how your work, attitude, and lifestyle can glorify God, and how to embrace your calling with spiritual passion and purpose.

This episode will challenge you to rethink your role in today’s culture and help you understand how to live as a tentmaker right where you are. Don’t miss this timely reminder of why you—and the church—exist today.
