DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

This sermon challenges the modern Church to reflect on the early
Christians who, despite lacking grand resources or platforms, were able
to turn the world upside down with their faith and dedication. The
speaker expresses disappointment in the current state of the Church,
suggesting that it falls short of the standards set by the early
believers. There is a call to reexamine priorities, moving away from
superficial joy and entertainment towards a deeper, more impactful faith
that truly honors God.

CONTENT

They didn't have stately buildings, they didn't have paid evangelists,
they didn't have a lot of money, they didn't have organization, they
couldn't get on TV and beg, but I'll tell you what they did, they turned
the world upside down! And I'm embarrassed to be part of the Church of
Jesus today because I believe it's an embarrassment to a holy God. Most
of our joy is clapping our hands and having a good time and then
afterwards we're talking all the drivel of the world.
