Summary

What if the very thing you want most—revival, breakthrough, transformation—is already inside of you, waiting to be uncovered?

In this powerful sermon, Embracing the Untapped, Pastor Roman delivers a Spirit-filled message about the potential God hides in ordinary people and situations. Drawing from the story of Joash in 2 Kings 11–12, we’re reminded that God is shaping kings in hidden places. But will we be like Athaliah—killing future potential out of control or fear? Or like Jehoiada—nurturing and protecting what God is growing?

With gripping illustrations from the tragic life of billionaire Howard Hughes, biblical parallels to Nebuchadnezzar, and raw honesty about marriage, parenting, and discipleship, this message is a wake-up call for every believer.

Don’t quit too soon. Don’t kill what God is still forming. There’s gold under the struggle.
