EP 106- Preaching: "It's Not You... It's Me."

Theme: “It's Not You... It's Me.”– Preaching🎙 Preacher: Michael LopezMain Verse: 1 Samuel 8:4-9⸻📝 Episode Summary:In this message, we take the classic rom-com breakup line—“It’s not you, it’s me”—and connect it to 1 Samuel 8:4–9. Just like many of us who have been blindsided after giving our time, heart, and energy to someone, Samuel felt rejected when Israel asked for a king. But God told him the truth: “They’re not rejecting you—they’re rejecting Me.”This preaching reminds us that sometimes the pain we feel isn’t personal—it’s spiritual. People may walk away, choose something else, or chase what looks better, but it doesn’t change the value God placed on you.In this episode, the audience learns how to release rejection, see the deeper root behind people’s decisions, and return their confidence to the God who never replaces, abandons, or overlooks them.⸻🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:• A heart-broken Samuel• Is there a heart-broken YOU?• God's Intervention• Rejection is God's protection.
