Faith Over Fear: Learning from King Ahaz

In this video, we dive into a powerful lesson from 2 Kings and Isaiah regarding how we respond to the "firebrands" of life—those moments of intense fear, anxiety, and life-threatening challenges.

Sharing from a deeply personal place of going through chemotherapy and preparing for a stem cell transplant, we explore the contrast between King Ahaz’s fear-driven reliance on the world and the Lord's invitation to stand firm in faith. If we do not establish our faith in Yahweh, we will not be established at all.

Let this be an encouragement to view your current trial not as a "Why me?" moment, but as an opportunity to test and grow a faith that is truly unshakable.
