Are you ignoring the warnings God is putting right in front of you?

From Pompeii to the Titanic to the Challenger, history is filled with ignored warnings and devastating consequences.

John 13 shows us two men—Judas and Peter—who both received clear warnings from Jesus… but only one was restored.

In this message, Pastor Jon Benzinger walks through John 13 to show:
* Jesus the Sovereign who Serves – the King who washes feet
* Judas the Disciple who Defects – how love of an idol destroys a soul
* Peter the Friend who Foreswears – how spiritual pride collapses under pressure

You’ll be challenged to ask: Am I heeding Jesus’ warnings—or explaining them away?

Watch to the end for a direct call to respond to Jesus’ mercy today, not tomorrow.
