Created vs. Creator

Jul 13, 2025    Pastor Kevin Lawson

In Pastor Kevin's message this past Sunday, we're challenged to examine our relationship with God and ensure we're worshipping Him as He truly is, not as we've created Him to be. The story of King Saul from 1 Samuel serves as a stark reminder of how even those chosen by God can fall when they lose sight of their Creator. Saul's journey from humble beginnings to prideful downfall teaches us the dangers of shaping God to fit our lifestyle rather than allowing Him to shape us. We're encouraged to ask ourselves: Do we serve a God who changes us, or have we changed God to suit our preferences? This introspection is crucial for our spiritual growth and maintaining a genuine relationship with our Creator. The message reminds us that while Jesus loved and welcomed all, He never condoned sin, always encouraging transformation. As we reflect on our own lives, let's commit to seeing God as He truly is – our unchanging, loving Creator who desires our wholehearted devotion and obedience.
