King of hearts: "Two of a kind"
by: Pastor justin simmons
โPick a card, any card.โ Magicians are masters of illusion. We build illusions of titles, status, and positions of influence. What if everything youโre showing the world is a carefully crafted illusion? What if God sees right through it? For four weeks, weโll expose the hidden hearts of biblical Kings, uncovering the radical truth that God works not with our perfect facades, but with our imperfect, authentic selves. Prepare to be seen!
In our roles, our callings, our lives - God looks beyond what the world sees. He is seeking character, integrity, and a heart that reflects His own. Exploring the contrasting paths of Saul and David, and discovering how Godโs view of our hearts will determine our influence in this cultural moment.
