What if the comfort you're desperately seeking is slowly killing you?
In 2001, three woodcutters in Georgia found warmth in a frozen forest—mysterious cylinders radiating heat. They pressed close all night. By morning, they were dying.
In 1st century Jerusalem, an 84-year-old widow named Anna spent her entire life waiting in the temple. On one ordinary morning, she recognized what everyone else missed: the Redeemer Himself, wrapped in swaddling clothes.
This sermon explores:
- The difference between comfort that kills and comfort that saves
- Why Anna's 84-year wait prepared her to see what others couldn't
- The cost of real Comfort—and who paid it
- Why genuine gospel requires releasing self-reliance
