He Will Go Ahead of You to Galilee

In this moving and often hilarious follow-up message, Ken shifts the focus from receiving God's grace to becoming a vessel for it. Grounded in Mark 16:7—"He is going ahead of you to Galilee"—this sermon is a powerful reminder that we never walk into a situation alone because Christ is already there waiting for us. With his signature wit, Buddy shares stories ranging from a disastrous 1970s "permanent" hair treatment to his self-deprecating "career" as a benchwarmer at Baylor, all to illustrate one profound point: God doesn't need our perfection; He needs our presence in the "Galilees" of our modern world. Ken challenges the "ticket theology" of the modern church—the idea that faith is just a pass to heaven—and instead points us toward the "town garbage heap" where the broken, the addicted, and the hurting reside. From the checkout lines at Publix to the street corners of our cities, he argues that we are God’s "Plan A" for reaching the world, and there is no Plan B. Whether you are facing a personal battle like a health crisis or wondering how you can possibly make a difference in such a broken world, this message will encourage you to open your eyes and see the "army of God" standing on the hillsides of your life. It is a call to action, a comfort for the weary, and a masterclass in living a life of purpose.
