Back to the Minors: Micah | Pastor Ryan Follis

In this special Fourth of July weekend message on the 250th anniversary of the United States, Pastor Ryan weaves together the prophecy of Micah, the story of Jesus’ lineage, and the American experiment of “we the people.” He contrasts “we the people” with “the us in power,” reflecting on how God consistently works through ordinary, often flawed people—founders, reformers, soldiers, parents, and everyday citizens—to shape both nations and generations.Drawing from Micah 3 and 5 and Philippians 2, this sermon challenges listeners to resist cynicism and partisan binaries, to see their lives as part of a larger story, and to embrace their calling as Christians who love their nation without confusing it with their ultimate citizenship in God’s kingdom. It’s a call to live out sacrificial, Christ-shaped influence in our families, workplaces, and communities—for the sake of our posterity.Support the showWe are growing the Kingdom of God through the lives of everyday people by reaching UP to God, IN to Grow, and OUT to GiveJoin us on Sundays at 9:30 in person and online!FBC Nokomis Youtube: www.youtube.com/@FirstBaptistChurchofNokomisFBC Nokomis Facebook: www.facebook.com/firstbaptistnokomisFBC Nokomis Sermon Podcast: https://fbcnokomissermons.buzzsprout.com/share
