"It doesn't matter what kind of sermon you preach. It matters what kind of life you live",
Bishop Lance Johnson brings a fiery sermon with 'There is More at Stake Part 1', challenging the status quo of the church and urging a wake-up call. With a past steeped in addiction, Lance speaks from experience, emphasising that actions speak louder than words, a lesson rooted in biblical teachings. He argues that the church has been more focused on religion than living the message of Jesus, leading to a spiritual numbness in America.
Lance uses vivid anecdotes, like missing flights in Pakistan, to illustrate the urgency of waking up from spiritual slumber. He warns that complacency and consumerism have replaced genuine faith and commitment, urging Christians to live out their beliefs actively. In his passionate plea, Lance highlights the moral decay he sees in society, pointing out how political issues are often moral problems at their core.
He calls for a transformative approach where the church becomes a beacon of truth and love, rather than a monument to itself. His message is clear: it's time to shake things up and reflect Jesus in our actions. If you're seeking a sermon that challenges and inspires you to rethink your role in your faith community, this episode is a must-listen.
