In this sermon, we’re called to recognize that keeping close to God isn’t a one-time event. Looking at Hezekiah’s faithful reforms and Manasseh’s disastrous decline, we see how even subtle compromises can lead us away from God. Yet Manasseh’s story also shows us the depth of God’s mercy when we genuinely turn back. This message challenges us to guard against modern idols, embrace continual renewal, and leave a legacy that’s truly grounded in faith.
