Scandalous - Week 2

Podcast cover

Connection Church Statesboro

The sermon explores the theme of spiritual repositioning through the story of Jesus calling Levi (Matthew) to be his disciple. It emphasizes that, like Matthew, individuals can rise above their past and present circumstances to follow Christ. The speaker highlights that Jesus offers new life, a clear conscience, and a greater purpose, urging listeners to see their resources, influence, and even failures as opportunities for kingdom work. Drawing from personal experience, the speaker shares a story about selling his roofing business to fully commit to ministry, illustrating the need to sever ties with hindering influences. The message encourages listeners to take a step closer to God, trust in His pursuit, and allow Him to transform every area of their lives.
