  #402: Can I Recognize Jesus in My Everyday Life? With Kyle Idleman 14.05.2026 31min

  What if the Jesus you know has been shaped more by culture than by Scripture? All too often, we create a customized Jesus to fit our preferences instead of following the true Jesus revealed in God's Word. And without even realizing it, He becomes the Lord of our comfort and convenience instead of the Lord of our lives. So today, pastor and bestselling author Kyle Idleman will give us a clear understanding of who Jesus is as Messiah and King! He'll unpack how our view of Jesus can quietly drift, how to recognize when we've turned Him into a life coach instead of a King, and what it looks like to follow Him for who He truly is.
