In this study from Matthew 14, Jeff Trahan examines the death of John the Baptist through the lens of four key figures: the faithful prophet, the shameless dancer, the vengeful schemer, and the morally weak king. Drawing out the contrast between John's unwavering courage and the corruption of Herod's court, this sermon calls God's people to stand firm in biblical convictions even when the cost is high, and to trust that God's justice will prevail.
