Description

This week, we continued our series Longing for the Better King with a message from 1 Samuel 28:3–25 titled “Desperation Without Direction.”

In one of the darkest chapters of Saul’s life, fear drove him to the wrong voices, sin led him to counterfeit answers, and God’s Word stood firm in judgment. Saul’s desperation shows us the danger of acting without God — but it also points us to the hope we have in Jesus, the true King who satisfies where every counterfeit fails.

Key Takeaways:
1) Fear magnifies our problems and minimizes God’s power.
2) Compromise always settles for less than God’s best.
3) God’s Word stands whether we stand with it or not.

Jesus is the only real voice, the true way, and the Savior who never fails.
This was also our 5th Sunday Family Service, where kids, students, and adults worshiped together, and we sent teams into our community for Impact projects to bless schools, neighborhoods, and first responders.

Discover how to face fear with faith, stop chasing counterfeits, and follow the voice of Jesus in your life.
