People Pleasing or Serving God

from Calvary Church · host Calvary Church, Grand Rapids, MI

In Matthew 14, we see how people-pleasing affected the decision-making of Herod. We saw in Herod’s life, God teaching us the dangers of working to please people rather than working to please God. We are also reminded of John the Baptist’s commitment to obedience and were encouraged to follow Christ’s example to be seeking the Father’s approval not the approval of man.
