Bible Text: John 10:1-21 Life without God can feel like a giant game show —You’re searching behind every “door” the world offers — careers, relationships, status, success — hoping we’ll finally uncover something that satisfies our souls. Hoping for something that is going to give us peace, purpose and security. But too often, we end up with a spiritual “zonk” — it looked good, but it left us empty. Let’s Make a Deal is built on uncertainty — you never really know what’s behind the curtain. You’re gambling, hoping for the best but risking something worse. Life without God often mirrors this — decisions are based on guesswork, feelings, or fleeting desires. Without divine direction, people are left to “make deals” with the world, culture, or their own limited understanding, hoping it leads to fulfillment but often ending in disappointment. Without God, life becomes a gamble; with God, it becomes a guided journey. When we follow Jesus, we’re no longer gambling for meaning because we’ve found the true prize. We don’t have to guess what’s behind the door because He is the Door that leads to Life. Jesus says, let’s make a deal. I will give you my life if you give me yours. Give me your life and I will give you mine. It’s actually not a deal, it’s a promise— we receive a promise. He says, give me your life and I will give you mine.
