What does it mean to truly follow God? Is it possible to come close—yet still fall short? In this powerful and deeply convicting message, Steven Conway challenges us to examine whether our walk with God is complete or incomplete. Using the striking illustration of reaching a mountain summit, this message reveals a sobering truth: many are satisfied with being close, while God is calling His people higher. Drawing from Isaiah 58, this message confronts a comfortable form of religion that avoids sacrifice, avoids service, and avoids full surrender. It exposes the danger of stopping short—of embracing outward faith while resisting the deeper call to reflect the heart of God in practical love, compassion, and mission. Through passages like 2 Timothy 3 and Matthew 25, we are reminded that true Christianity is not passive. It is active, surrendered, and aligned with the very heart of God—especially toward the broken, the poor, and the overlooked. This message also redefines the Sabbath, not as restriction, but as surrender—a weekly invitation to trust God fully, release control, and engage in His work with faith and obedience. The question is not how far you have come. The question is: Have you fully surrendered?
