The King & His Kingdom: #83 - Unsinkable Expectation | Matthew 17:22-23

Mike Harrelson - September 7th 2025 Every false hope will sink, but Jesus—the true King—never will. This week, Mike continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 17:22–23, where Jesus again predicts His betrayal, death, and resurrection. Just as the Titanic was thought to be “unsinkable,” the disciples’ misplaced expectations of a political Messiah blinded them to God’s true plan. Mike shares how our own false expectations can leave us disillusioned, but the cross confronts and reshapes them with truth. Through the Spirit, God reframes our hopes, reminding us that Jesus alone is trustworthy, holy, and unsinkable.
