Listen "The Price of Truth | Gospel of Matthew"
Episode Synopsis
Truth always costs something—and in Matthew 14:1–13, we see that cost on full display. In this message, we look at the story of John the Baptist's imprisonment and execution, a moment that reveals what happens when truth confronts corrupt power. John wasn't killed for preaching to crowds—he was killed for challenging a ruler's sin. We explore four themes: how truth confronts power, why faithfulness will cost you, how sin seeks to silence the prophetic voice, and why grief—though real—is never the final word. From the courage of William Tyndale to the boldness of John the Baptist, we are reminded that the kingdom of God advances not in comfort but in conviction. This message calls believers to stand firm in a culture that prefers silence over righteousness and compromise over holiness. Faithful discipleship requires courage, conviction, and a willingness to confront deception with love and truth. The question isn't whether truth is costly—it's whether we're willing to pay the price.
