What Influences You?
from Alcohol on SermonAudio Hosted by Pastor Darrell Wilkins
The sermon examines the life of King Joash to illustrate the danger of relying on external spiritual mentors rather than developing personal biblical convictions. Using Joash's decline after the death of his mentor Jehoiada, Pastor Wilkins warns that faith based solely on human influence is fragile and temporary. The message emphasizes the necessity for believers, particularly youth, to internalize Scripture so their standards remain firm when external guidance is removed. By contrasting alcohol-induced behavior with being filled with the Holy Spirit, the text argues that true spiritual maturity comes from direct reliance on God's Word. Ultimately, the central call is to cultivate independent, scripture-based beliefs that endure beyond the presence of any single leader.
