Episode Synopsis

Pastor Brandon examines the prophet Amos's warning about "walking on thin ice" – how Israel's complacency and false security were leading them toward judgment despite their apparent prosperity and success.• Amos functioned as God's watchman, warning people of coming disaster with enough time to prepare• The prophet addressed both Israel and his home nation of Judah, proving no one is exempt from God's standards• God's patience should never be confused with His acceptance of sin• Those who acknowledge their struggles and move toward God experience grace differently than those who rationalize disobedience• Accountability with trusted believers is essential for overcoming persistent sin patterns• Whatever you're struggling with, someone else has likely battled it too and can walk alongside you• Radical changes may be necessary to break free from entrenched sin – "is your freedom worth it?"• Ministry leaders need the same accountability and transparency as everyone elseGo to thebiblebreakdown.com to subscribe to our newsletter and join our Facebook discussion group.
