from Beyond Belief · host Hardus Pretorius

In this thought-provoking message from Acts 14:8–18, we explore the dangers of elevating the wrong things in life and the consequences of misplaced worship. When we place our trust in anything other than God—whether it's success, relationships, or material wealth—we risk disappointment and spiritual stagnation. Drawing parallels from the story of Paul and Barnabas in Lystra, this message challenges us to examine what we elevate to an ultimate place in our lives.With personal insights, biblical teachings, and practical reflections, this message offers a powerful reminder to redirect our worship toward the Creator, not the created.
