Simply Jesus – Week 11 | How Evil Is Defeated

When headlines and heartbreak make evil feel huge and unstoppable—mass violence, bitter divisions, or the private ways we self-destruct—it's easy to feel powerless and alone. This message names that exact friction: the slow creep of harm, the public outbreaks of cruelty, and the private chains that won’t hold without something greater intervening. The sermon walks through a vivid New Testament story to show three clear things: evil’s complexity, its predictable patterns, and how it is truly defeated—not by human force or quick fixes, but by the surprising way Jesus confronts and disarms the powers that destroy life. You’ll hear a grounded, hopeful case for a holistic response—prayer and action, community and care—rooted in a single, decisive act that changes the battlefield. Stay for the part that reorients how we live and fight for life now, because it just might rearrange what you thought defeating evil would look like.
