"Rescue to Ruin" - Kings and Kingdoms
May 17, 2026 • Matt Walton
This sermon examines the fall of the northern kingdom of Israel as recorded in 2 Kings 17, using it as a warning against spiritual drift. The message traces how Israel's destruction came through a progressive pattern: forgetting God's grace, replacing Him with idols, and refusing His warnings through the prophets. Pastor Matt emphasizes that this drift happens gradually through small decisions, not one catastrophic choice.
