In this message, Pastor Sean teaches on the first commandment, “You shall have no other gods before Me.” Loving God radically means putting Him above every idol, every false belief, and every desire that competes for our hearts. From Solomon’s downfall to the modern idols of self, pleasure, and false religion, we see that anything placed before God leads to deception and distance from His love. False gods promise freedom but deliver bondage. Yet Jesus the one true and living God calls us to wholehearted devotion and authentic relationship. When we encounter Him, our hearts are set free to love purely, live boldly, and worship Him alone The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God. Each week, you will hear a teaching from our Lead Pastors, Les and Nikki Cody or another leader in our community. To learn more about Mercy Culture, visit https://mercyculturewaco.com
