From the mini-series "The Gods of This World"

In this message, we explore the powerful story of King Josiah and the call to a personal “Josiah moment.” Drawing from Scripture, the sermon challenges us to examine our hearts, tear down modern-day idols, and fully surrender to God. Like Josiah, real spiritual renewal begins with repentance, leads to repairing what’s been neglected, and results in renewed worship and blessing. This message invites listeners to reflect, respond, and choose wholehearted devotion—because we cannot serve two masters.

From the mini-series "The Gods of This World"

In this message, we continue our January series on false gods and modern-day idols by focusing on the Sanctity of Human Life. From Genesis to the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, Scripture reveals God’s deep value for life—from conception to old age—and His call for His people to honor Him above all else. The sermon contrasts the false gods of the Old Testament, such as Baal, Molech, and Ishtar, with the living God, showing how idolatry leads to death, division, and self-centered worship, while devotion to God leads to life, purity, and freedom. We are challenged to examine our own hearts, identify the idols that compete for our allegiance today, and return to the basics of faith: worship, prayer, fellowship, purity, and obedience. Ultimately, this message reminds us that every human life is created by God, valued by God, and called to live fully for His glory.

From the mini-series "The Gods of This World"

In this message, we continue our series on worship and the danger of idols. Drawing from Israel’s history, the teachings of Jesus, and the book of Romans, we see a consistent biblical warning: anything that takes God’s place in our hearts becomes destructive. While ancient Israel bowed to gods like Molech, Ishtar, and Baal, modern believers face subtler idols—comfort, success, entertainment, control, and even family.

Using Deuteronomy 6 as a foundation, this sermon outlines five practical ways to keep God first: loving God with everything we are, guarding our hearts, teaching God’s truth in our homes, keeping God’s Word constantly before us, and staying spiritually vigilant. We are challenged to examine what we have elevated above the Lord and to remove anything that competes with Him.

This message is a call to wholehearted devotion—to put God back at the center of our lives, our families, and our church, so we can walk in true spiritual strength and freedom.
