Who's Really in Charge Here?Have you ever heard a teenager defiantly tell their parents, "You're not the boss of me!"? Or watched employees challenge their supervisor at work? We see people questioning authority everywhere today—in politics, at work, in families, and even in churches. But this isn't anything new.The Same Old QuestionAbout 2,000 years ago, religious leaders asked Jesus basically the same question: "Who put you in charge?" Pastor Rick Brown explores this timeless struggle with authority in Luke 20:1-19, showing us that this rebellious attitude goes all the way back to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.Breaking It Down: Questions, Stories, and WarningsPastor Rick uses a simple format to help us understand this passage:* Five key questions about authority* One powerful parable Jesus told* One clear warning about the consequencesThe Choice We All FaceHere's the thing: the religious leaders couldn't even answer Jesus' simple questions because they cared more about looking good in front of people than actually finding the truth.Today, we face the exact same choice they did. We can either:* Humble ourselves under God's loving authority, or* Keep insisting, "You're not the boss of me!”The Bottom LineAs Pastor Rick reminds us, Jesus compared himself to a stone that builders rejected—but that rejected stone became the cornerstone of the entire building. Jesus has authority whether we like it or not. The real question isn't whether he's in charge, but whether we'll align ourselves with that reality or keep fighting against it.The choice is ours, but the authority remains his.A sermon delivered as part of the Fresh Love Series - # 57 at Dayspring Church in Star, Idaho, on August 3, 2025DAYSPRING SERVICE INFORMATIONAddress: 9701 W Beacon Light Road in Star, IdahoDay & Time: Sunday at 10:30 am.See you there!STAY UP TO DATEMake sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!-For more information, please contact us at [email protected]: www.dayspringchurch.org-Dayspring Church Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dayspringchurchstar/-Rick Brown Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rickbrown.usa/-Dayspring Church Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DayspringChurchStarBIBLE READING PLANGet the Anchored in the Word Bible reading plan: https://www.dayspringchurch.org/mediaGIVEGiving is part of our worship time, and in this season, the easiest way to do that is online.
