"Sermons shouldn't always be what you want to hear; sometimes they should really get into your business."
Ever wondered why some people feel spiritually starved despite regular church attendance? Bishop Lance Johnson tackles this intriguing topic, drawing from his personal journey from addiction to spiritual enlightenment. He explores the idea that our spiritual appetite reflects our spiritual condition. If you're feeling unfulfilled in your spiritual life, it might be time to examine what you're truly hungry for.
Johnson suggests that just like we choose restaurants based on our dietary preferences, we also choose spiritual teachings that align with our current desires. But what happens when those desires don't lead us towards a deeper relationship with God? Johnson doesn't shy away from the hard truths. He challenges listeners to seek teachings that confront and correct, rather than just comfort.
He emphasises the importance of embracing the entirety of God's word, even the parts that make us uncomfortable or challenge our current way of life. It's not about finding a preacher who says what you want to hear, but one who preaches the whole counsel of God, encouraging growth and transformation. The episode is a wake-up call for those feeling spiritually stagnant. Johnson encourages self-reflection on whether it's the church or one's own changing spiritual appetite that's causing the dissatisfaction.
He invites listeners to find a community that pushes them towards holiness and godliness enveloped in love. The journey to spiritual fulfilment is ongoing, requiring constant growth and an openness to being moulded by God's word. So, are you being spiritually fed, or is it time to reassess your spiritual diet? Tune in to find out how you can grow deeper in your faith.
