Will You Trust Me?

June 15, 2025 | John 11.1-16 | Rob Collis

The story of Lazarus is all about people saying, “God, help!” and the ways Jesus shows up to respond to their prayer. And when Jesus shows up, he doesn’t always answer our prayers exactly the way we expect or imagine: When we call out to him, he invites us to take our eyes off of ourselves, and to fix them on him, as we trust in his goodness and what it is he is intending to do.

This week, Rob Collis preaches from John 11.1-16. As he begins unpacking the story of Lazarus, shows us that underneath it all, Jesus is actually asking us a question. As people cry out to him for help, and as his disciples hear what Jesus plans to do, Jesus is asking us a question that gets to the very heart of it all. The question is this: Will you trust me?
