DIGGING DEEPER

WEEKEND OF APRIL 25 & 26, 2026

SERMON NOTES


Break the Jar

Becoming Legendary - Matthew 26:6-13; John 12:3



Big idea: Ordinary people like us living out extra-ordinary devotion will impact the world in ways we can’t imagine.


True worship never stays contained – it always affects the environment.


1. Why isn’t her name given?


2. Why don’t we talk about this more?


Challenge: Take a step forward to pour out your life for Jesus for an eternal impact…


…with your giving

2 Corinthians 9:10-12


…with your living

1 Corinthians 15:58

DIGGING DEEPER


What’s something small someone did for you that had a bigger impact than they probably realized? 


Read Matthew 26:6–13 and John 12:1–8. What stands out most to you about what happened? 


If our “jar” is often the thing we instinctively protect. What might that be for you right now? (time, comfort, reputation, control, money, etc.) 


The message said, “True worship never stays contained—it changes what’s happening around it.” Where have you seen someone’s faith or devotion impact others? 


Read Second Corinthians 2:14–16. What does it mean that our lives are like a “fragrance”? How does that challenge or encourage you? 


What would you want to be said at your funeral service someday? What do you want your legacy to be in heaven?


Next week is our confidential church giving commitments. What is the biggest thing you’re hoping God will do in our church through this experience? What do you want Him to do in your life.
