What Did You Expect? (Genesis 21:8-21, Psalm 86, Romans 6:1-11, Matthew 10:24-39)

Sermon preached June 21, 2026 by Pastor Michael Kidd at Four Winds Reformed Church (CREC) in northeast Arkansas. You are free—and that is not a feeling, it is a fact. This sermon moves from the domestic chaos of Abraham's household in Genesis 21 through Christ's call to fearless discipleship in Matthew 10 to Paul's declaration that all who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have died to sin and risen to walk in newness of life, calling us to stop hedging and start believing that what our baptism says about us is true.
