Have you ever started something with great passion, only to find your commitment tested over time? Whether it’s a new job, a marriage, or your spiritual walk, the real challenge isn’t just how you begin—it’s how you finish. In this powerful sermon, we explore the life of King Asa of Judah, who reigned for 41 remarkable years. Asa’s story is one of strong beginnings—marked by faithfulness, bold reforms, and a genuine trust in God. But his journey also reveals a cautionary warning: even the most faithful can drift toward self-reliance when faced with pressure, fear, or success.
