Our study of Micah is titled "The Call of the Shepherd-King." Today, we look at Micah 1, the oracle's historical context, its call for repentance, and the vivid imagery used by Micah to convey God's lamentation over his people's sins. Through a deep exploration of Micah's vision of a world centered around Yahweh's righteousness, the sermon challenges us to reflect on our own lives, urging us towards actions that align with God's kingdom values. This episode is a compelling invitation to understand and embrace the transformative power of God's word through Micah, encouraging listeners to live out their faith with justice, kindness, and humility.

Jesus Famous is a ministry of Calvary Monterey.We long to see the fame of Christ. By fame, we mean His glory, His renown, or, to borrow from Colossians, His preeminence (Colossians 1:18). When Jesus is famous, everything changes and He becomes our passion, because His love is better than life.
When Jesus is famous in us, we love Him. We know Him and He knows us. We are captivated by His grace, His forgiveness, and His love.
When Jesus is famous among us, we grow in Him. Our motivations change in pursuit of the gospel. His Spirit transforms us into a loving community.
When Jesus is famous through us, we share Him. Jesus saturates our everyday rhythms and conversations. We are empowered to be on mission, serving those around us.
