How Not to Hate Jesus (Truth Bombs 1 - Pastor Mike)

In this opening message of our series "Truth Bombs,” we confront the reality that no one who met the real Jesus was ever just ambivalent about him. On a scale of one to five, Jesus’ ratings were always ones or fives—people either loved and worshipped him or loathed and wanted to kill him. Drawing from Luke 4, we look at Jesus’ first sermon in his hometown of Nazareth. The service began with amazement as Jesus declared himself the long-awaited Messiah, but it ended with a lynch mob trying to throw him off a cliff. Why the sudden shift? Jesus dropped a "truth bomb" on their pride and entitlement, pointing out that God often sends His grace to those who are humble and repentant rather than those who simply feel they deserve a "hometown discount". Key Highlights from the Sermon: • The Myth of a "Nice" Jesus: Discover why the historical Jesus was "explosive" and why "nice" is the one thing he never was. • The Tom Brady Test: Are you truly coachable and correctable? We explore why a lack of humility is the number one reason people "crash out" of relationships and careers. • Stone vs. Play-Doh: A diagnostic look at your heart—is it rigid and defensive, or is it soft and willing to be reshaped by God? • The 40-Day Lenten Challenge: Instead of giving up caffeine or sugar, we are challenged to give up defensiveness. This includes a specific "homework assignment" to ask three people in your life: "What is it like to be around me?". Ultimately, the way to "not hate Jesus" is to choose repentance. When we turn away from our pride, we find a Savior who doesn't just point out our flaws but offers freedom, forgiveness, and the "year of the Lord’s favor".
