"At the feet of Jesus, a 'sinful' woman found forgiveness, while a 'righteous' man missed the point. Her tears washed His feet. Her hair dried them. Her perfume anointed Him. Her love poured out extravagantly. Why? Because she knew how much she'd been forgiven. The religious leader saw only her past. Jesus saw her heart. Which are you? The one proudly keeping score, or the one humbly pouring out gratitude?

On this powerful Palm Sunday message, we dive deep into Daniel’s prophecy to reveal how every empire rises and falls—but one Kingdom stands forever. Jesus didn’t come to overthrow governments; He came to save hearts, even through suffering. As we trace the fall of kingdoms and the rise of Christ, we’re reminded that Jesus is King, even in the fire. Don’t trade peace for pressure—trust the One who holds the future.

Have you ever wondered how God might be speaking to you through your dreams? In this message, we explore the powerful, divine purpose behind the dreams God gives us. Looking at the story of Joseph, we discover that God doesn't just give dreams for our benefit but to position us to serve others. This sermon unpacks the difference between self-serving dreams and God-given ones—and how to tell them apart. It’s a timely reminder that even when the journey seems long or uncertain, God is always working behind the scenes to bring His vision to life through us.

We would love to have you join us June 6th- 8th 2025 for our AWKN Conference.

The sermon explores the idea that God's favor does not always come in the form of ease or comfort. Instead, divine favor can be challenging, requiring faith, perseverance, and obedience through trials. Drawing from biblical examples, the message emphasizes that blessings are often wrapped in difficulties, pushing believers to grow spiritually and trust God's plan. The sermon encourages listeners to embrace struggles as opportunities for transformation, understanding that God's favor sometimes requires sacrifice and endurance. Ultimately, it reassures that even in hardship, God's purpose is at work, leading to a greater reward.Join us Sunday's 8:15 | 10:00 | 11:45 Authentic Church 2416 N Center St Hickory, NC 28601 (Beside Planet Fitness) GIVING To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://authenticchurch.com/give GET CONNECTED Ready to check out Authentic Church in person?
