Main Idea

The main idea of the sermon was that Jesus Christ's arrival as King brings good news that should change everything about our lives. We were encouraged to view life through the lens of Kingdom citizenship, which involves a different way of acting, thinking, and belonging. This perspective allows us to see beyond earthly challenges and align ourselves with the eternal Kingdom, finding true satisfaction and forgiveness in Jesus.
