About the Sermon

Revival requires ruthless honesty. Ezekiel confronts the leaders of Israel for harboring idols in their hearts—hidden things that compete with God for their devotion. Today, we face similar challenges: success, comfort, relationships, or approval that can take God’s rightful place in our lives. True revival happens when we identify these idols and surrender them completely to God’s authority.

Serving as Jars of Clay

“We are jars of clay who are fillable with the very presence of God.” Pastor Josue unpacks the biblical metaphor of believers as “jars of clay,” explaining how followers of Jesus are:
Fragile
Finite
Fallible
Fillable
Functional

Faithfulness

In Week 2 of our Be Our Guest series, guest speaker Makayla Lance walks through the story of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis and reminds us of a truth we desperately need to hear:
God is faithful—even when we struggle to believe He will come through.
For 25 years, Abraham and Sarah waited on a promise from God that seemed impossible. And somewhere in the waiting came doubt, frustration, hopelessness, and the temptation to take control themselves.
Maybe you know that feeling too.
