1 Kings 21

In this sermon, Chris Vogel discusses King Ahab coveting Naboth's vineyard results not only in sour grapes, but murder (1 Kings 21). Elijah's confrontation details the consequences of Ahab's greedy heart, but also opens the door to God's mercy and Ahab's repentance. That God celebrates the messy, short-lived and questionable heart change of the king gives us hope when our repentances are less than perfect. Nevertheless, the consequences remain.
