In this sermon, guest speaker , Ernie Krueger weaves together biblical exposition with raw personal stories - from adopting a Black child in apartheid South Africa to standing up against misogyny in professional rugby. His message centers on the critical difference between merely acknowledging Jesus and truly surrendering to Him as Lord. Drawing parallels between the progressive healing of the blind man (Mark 8:22-26) and spiritual awakening, Krueger demonstrates how true sight comes when we move from cultural Christianity to complete surrender to Christ's lordship.
