A Return to Sanity

This sermon explores the profound theme of who reigns in our lives, drawing on Daniel 4:28-37 to identify the dangers of pride and self-importance. It contrasts boasting in personal achievements with acknowledging God’s glory, using Scripture to illustrate the consequences of misplaced authority. By understanding God’s judgment and mercy, we can restore our relationship with Him, embrace true freedom, and live under His Lordship. The message offers hope for renewal and intimacy with God, urging us to recognize our frailty and choose to serve Him.
