In this powerful sermon from Rock Harbor Church, Pastor Brandon Holthaus dives deep into the life of Samson—called by God, yet compromised by his desires. Discover how Samson’s story is not just a tale from the Old Testament, but a mirror reflecting modern culture, identity struggles, and the consequences of unchecked desires.
Through the lens of Judges 14, this message reveals the subtle dangers of spiritual compromise, emotional manipulation, and living by sight instead of faith. You’ll walk away challenged to evaluate your identity in Christ and inspired to fix your eyes on Jesus, not the fleeting things of the world.
✝️ Learn how God's call remains—even when we fall short—and how His strength is made perfect in our weakness.
🕊️ Key Themes:
The Nazarite vow and its significance
Samson’s misplaced identity and cultural compromise
Emotional blackmail and the struggle for godly masculinity
How sin, once entertained, can enslave
A call to spiritual clarity and courage in confusing times
📚 Scripture Focus: Judges 14, 2 Corinthians 5:7, Hebrews 12:2, Proverbs 14:12, 1 Corinthians 5
👉 Stay grounded. Stay alert. Keep your eyes on Jesus.
