Join Pastor Stephen Mizell with co-hosts Pastor Jay Rivenbark and Pastor Alyssa Bream as they explore God's rebuke of corrupt leadership in Jeremiah and His promise of a righteous King.

Scripture Focus: Jeremiah 22:1-23:20 - God's judgment on Judah's kings who oppressed the poor and scattered the sheep instead of shepherding them well.

In This Episode:

• How leaders exploited people for personal gain instead of serving their best interests
• Why God cares deeply about justice and how we treat the vulnerable
• Comparing ancient leadership failures to modern leaders who rule through fear and self-interest
• The Righteous Branch prophecy and how Jesus flips the script through sacrifice
• Discerning comforting lies from hard truths in ministry and everyday life

Key Quote: "As a leader, I don't get to do everything that makes me happy. You've got to do what's in the best interest of the people, and that means at times you've got to sacrifice."
