Week 2: I Didn't See That Coming
Mended Series — Week 2: I Didn’t See That Coming — But God Did
In week two of the Mended series, Pastor Brandon explores one of the deepest wounds people experience—betrayal.
Drawing from the story of David and Ahithophel in 2 Samuel, the message shows how unhealed wounds can quietly grow into bitterness that eventually harms others. Betrayal cuts deeply because it comes from someone we trusted, often reshaping how we see relationships, ourselves, and even God. Yet Scripture reveals a better path: bringing our wounds honestly to God, choosing forgiveness without confusing it with restored trust, and refusing to let the betrayal define our identity.
Ultimately, the gospel holds up a mirror showing that we are not only the wounded like David but also the betrayers like Ahithophel. At the cross, Jesus carries both realities—healing the wounded and forgiving the guilty—reminding us that true freedom from betrayal is only found when we bring both our pain and our sin to Him.
