10-01-25 - Jesus Preaches - Joel McIntyre

Picture a world dimmed by doubt and daily grind....then Jesus arrives, preaching hope where it's needed most. Drawing from Matthew 4, Pastor Joel explores how, amid John the Baptist's sudden silencing in prison, Jesus relocates to Capernaum in Galilee, shining Isaiah's promised light on a rough, diverse region far from Jerusalem's polish. His simple yet urgent message? "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand"...a nudge to pause, reflect, and realign with God's nearness. Soon, he summons everyday men like fishermen Peter and his brother Andrew, plus James and John, urging them to leave it all behind: "Follow me, and I'll make you fishers of men." It's a reminder that true purpose blooms in humility, urging you to trade self-focus for soul-seeking lives that echo John's paving-the-way spirit. Step into this truth and let it reshape how you walk today.
