In Week 3 of our “Thriving in Exile” series, Pastor Mike Lotzer explores what it means to be a blessing in a culture that doesn’t share your values while also responding to real evil with discernment. Teaching from Jeremiah 29:1–14 alongside 2 Kings 2:19–25, this sermon unpacks biblical themes of blessing, cursing, and how God’s people bring healing and truth in spiritually hostile environments. If you’ve been searching for a sermon on how to live out your faith at work, respond to evil biblically, or be a light in a broken culture, this message offers practical and challenging insight. Designed for anyone navigating faith in today’s world, it shows how to solve real problems in God’s power while leaving ultimate judgment in His hands.
