Celebrating Life with God

The sermon explored how true greatness is measured not by worldly achievements, but by the quality of our faithfulness to God. King Josiah stands alone among Israel's kings as one who "did not turn to the right or to the left"—fulfilling both Moses' command and God's charge to Joshua. Despite inheriting a kingdom steeped in idolatry and being surrounded by impossible circumstances, Josiah rolled up his sleeves and got to work restoring the temple and renewing God's people. His story reminds us that when we feel stuck in spiritual or practical ruts, we don't wait for inspiration to strike—we simply begin doing what faithful people do.
