Sermon - Pastor Tim Johnson | 1 Kings 12:25-33

In this powerful message from the Avenue Community Church, we dive deep into the subtle dangers of letting comfort and convenience shape our worship. Drawing from the story of Jeroboam and Israel’s golden calves, Pastor Tim challenges us to examine where our hearts truly lie and whether our faith still calls us beyond what’s easy. With raw honesty, vivid storytelling, and biblical insight, this sermon reminds us that convenience can lead to compromise, compromise to enslavement, and enslavement to chaos—and that following Jesus will always require a willingness to be stretched, challenged, and transformed.

If you’ve ever found yourself craving an “easier” faith, this episode will confront, encourage, and reorient your heart toward a God-centered life.
