Ever faced off against a rooster in your own backyard and realized it's time to reevaluate your approach to life? That's exactly how an unexpected encounter led Pastor Ben to explore the profound virtue of gentleness. Inspired by Jesus' teachings in Matthew 11:29, we examine how embodying gentleness can transform personal struggles into avenues for growth, even when it involves a comical showdown with a neighbor's feisty bird.
Through this sermon, you will learn how Jesus’ gentleness often defied societal expectations. By prioritizing mercy and goodness over rigid rules, as seen in his dealings with the Pharisees and his healing miracles, Jesus built a legacy not of force, but of compassion and humility. Pastor poses a bold challenge: How can we align our lives with such a mission, choosing gentleness over aggression, and selflessness over personal comfort?
