Complacency and Excuses | Uprooted | Aaron Pennington - Lead Pastor

What happens when comfortable faith turns into complacency? In Complacency and Excuses, Pastor Aaron Pennington continues the Uprooted sermon series with a powerful call to responsibility, surrender, and real transformation. Using a gripping historical illustration and Scripture from John 10, Matthew 5, Galatians 5, Luke 9, and Ephesians 3, this message confronts the excuses that quietly keep us stuck. Pastor Aaron challenges us to stop blaming circumstances, stop settling for the status quo, and allow God to uproot anything that prevents us from living fully surrendered lives. This sermon speaks directly to: Spiritual complacency Making excuses instead of taking responsibility Standing firm in faith against cultural pressure Daily surrender and obedience Letting go of shame and receiving grace Walking by the Spirit instead of the flesh If you’re asking what needs to change in your life in 2026, this message will challenge, encourage, and invite you into deeper faith. 📍 Trace Church | Colorado Springs Join us Sundays at 8:15a | 10:00a | 11:45a | 5:00p 4330 Mark Dabling Blvd, Colorado Springs ⸻ STAY CONNECTED 📌 Subscribe for weekly messages:    / @tracechurch   🌐 Visit our website: https://tracechurch.com 📘 Like us on Facebook:   / tracechurchcos   📸 Follow on Instagram:   / trace.church   🎧 Listen to the Trace Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/prof... ⸻ 🚶‍♂️ TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP ✅ Connect with Trace: https://tracechurch.com/next-steps/ 🙏 Request prayer: https://tracechurch.com/need-prayer/ 💸 Give your First and Best: https://tracechurch.com/give/ ⸻ 📖 ABOUT TRACE CHURCH Trace Church exists to help people find and follow Jesus.
