As we begin a new year, this message launches a new series on the gods of this world and the subtle ways modern idols still compete for our hearts today. Drawing from Ezekiel 3, the sermon calls believers to live as spiritual watchmen—people who listen, discern the times, and faithfully warn and love others with the truth of God’s Word.

The message features a powerful testimony from guest speaker Vlad Murzin, who shares his journey from addiction, self-worship, and despair to redemption and new life in Jesus Christ. His story highlights the transforming power of Scripture and the hope found only in Christ.

Together, the sermon challenges the church to recognize false gods that shape culture, to proclaim the gospel with compassion and courage, and to embrace our calling to be God’s shofar—His voice of warning, worship, and hope—to a hurting world. The service concludes with a call to salvation, renewed commitment to Christ, and communion in remembrance of Jesus’ sacrifice.
