There is a pattern with Jesus. Jesus gets angry when people mistreat kids. The word stumble usually means to fall into sin or to lose the faith. So, that leaves us all pondering this question: Is there anything currently that you do or that you say that could cause the kids you influence—perhaps your own children or someone else’s—to fall into sin or to lose their faith? If there is anything in your life—a sin, an attitude, etc.—that could mess those children up, then you need to get on your knees and repent.

If we are to become what we were created to be, we need to repent of our brainless exchange (Romans 1:22) and recognize the glory we have been desperately missing: the glory of Jesus who is the perfect image of God (Col. 1:15).

When we make Jesus our king and place our trust and allegiance in him, the Holy Spirit begins to reshape us to our original created glory.

So, which will it be… continuing to worship idols which disappoint (money, sex, and power) or bowing the knee to Jesus?

Will you open your eyes to the glory of Jesus or settle for stupid shadows?

Jesus is victorious over everything, right?
Sometimes we believe if we have enough faith, the problems of this life will go away. Mental health is a huge issue and, for a long time, the church counted it all as a faith issue. We do believe that anxiety and depression can be caused by spirits, but sometimes it is just a result of living in a fallen world that includes illness, imbalance, and chaos. In this sermon, we’re going to peel the complicated onion of anxiety, depression, and why a good God won’t just take it all away.
