In this episode Pastor Allen explores why this isn't always the case when serving in the Kingdom of God. When the outcome matters – winning or losing matters.

When we choose Jesus as Lord of our life, we are made a new creation in Christ. As a part of that identity, we open the door to new covenants and promises from God. Covenants are the most binding commitment between God and human beings - they are redemptive and eternal. Promises are invitations that enable us to live a "God designed life." In this sermon Pastor Allen explores how we can unlock the blessings of God's covenants and promises through our savior, Jesus Christ.

Today, there is a leadership vacuum in the body of Christ. In this episode Pastor Allen invites us to imagine that we can use the influence of our lives to make an impact for the kingdom of God. Throughout Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, God looks for leaders to help execute the purposes of God. Jesus is still recruiting Godly leaders today. He has a purpose for you in your home, work, and relationships to intentionally influence others to a life with Jesus Christ. This is our time to raise a generation of Godly leaders.

When God says that we can lead courageous lives free of worry, we can be confident that it is possible to do so. As Christians, our assignment is to lead with courageous faith, and help others to do the same.

Courageous and faith are two words we typically do not put together when speaking about our spiritual journey. As Christians, many of us have misunderstood what it means to be on the journey to honor the Lord with our life. In this episode, Pastor Allen reveals that we have to build an awareness of spiritual forces of both good and evil at work in the world. It is only through the Cross we have been given authority to overcome all forces of evil, and given the choice to honor God with our life.

Character is defined as the mental, emotional and moral qualities distinctive to an individual. When we take a closer look at this definition, we see that there continues to be a rise in the deterioration of human character. As a Church, it is time for us to take a stand to protect Christian values. In this episode, Pastor Allen explores how to continually grow a Godly character for ourselves and generations to come.

There is a lie commonly believed that Christianity will limit you, but nothing can be further from the truth.

It is common as Christians to identify ourselves by our traditions, rules, and particular denominations. However, when we gather before the throne of God with every nation, race, language and tribe – the one thing we will have in common is that we will be the Church of the redeemed. Our participation is secured through our relationship with Jesus. In this episode, Pastor Allen helps us to understand our part in welcoming people to participate in the Church of the redeemed.

God is a good God, and the devil is a bad devil – this truth is simple, but not simplistic enough for many of us to grasp. When we accept God's goodness and reject Satan's attempts to bring destruction, we begin to serve the Lord with our whole heart. In this episode, Pastor Allen challenges us to take a closer look at what we are placing value on in our lives. The choices we make with our time here will determine our eternity. Are we choosing God's desires for our lives? To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, click here: https://bit.ly/2WTieVf

Pastor Allen reveals the profound truth that God is far more interested in people than most people are in God. God continues to invite us towards himself, yet we often have a flippant attitude towards Him. There is no explanation in scripture for God's deep care of people. Yet, throughout the Bible, God has a persistent, unrelenting concern for the well-being of humanity. In this sermon, we learn that from Genesis to Revelation, God deeply cares about people.

Pastor Allen explores how God is faithfully bringing into completion His covenant with Abraham. God is regathering the Jewish people to Israel and restoring His Church. Today, Israel is truly a land of abundance bursting with life and security in the midst of their enemies. Yet, they too struggle with obedience for the Lord – just like we do. It is through Jesus Christ we can receive the blessing given to Abraham and become part of the fulfillment and redemption of all humanity.

Will you be a person who lays aside the world to be a difference maker for the Lord? Pastor Allen explains, there will be a persistent resistance when using your life to do the will of God. But through this kind of "resistance training" we can learn, grow, change and overcome- able to stand in the gap for the people of our generation and do the will of God.

Pastor Allen suggest that we are supposed to be difference makers that stand in the gap for this generation. Inviting us to imagine, that just as Jesus recruited Saul of Tarsus, He is still recruiting people to take a stand for the advancement of the Kingdom in this age. We are called to be more than church goers, but to stand in the gap for the purposes of the Kingdom with a conviction that would make us willing to face hardship and sacrifice.

Pastor Allen suggests, just like in Ezekiel, God is still looking for individuals who will stand before Him in the gap on behalf of the land. The eyes of the Lord are still searching the earth, recruiting people for His purposes and strengthening those whose hearts are fully committed to Him. This episode encourages you to be delivered from futility, become established in the midst of the Lord's purposes, and stand in the gap as a difference maker for this season in time.

The Bible says the return of the King of Kings will catch many people off guard. Pastor Allen asks the question, "What kind of people aught we to be when He gets here?". This episode encourages us to not let the great efforts of our lives be for things that are temporary. It also lays out what we'll need to let passions of our life be for the purposes of the Lord.

We can't see the outcome as we are making our own choices, but God sees what we can't - the end at the beginning. With Him, we can arrive at a future far greater than we could have navigated towards on our own. Pastor Allen suggests that when you and I refuse to follow the Lord, we are betting our lives on a future we can't see. This episode features four prayers that invite the Lord's restoration, wisdom, and guidance; through the power of the Holy Spirit.

We are seeing the greatest expressions of ungodliness and evil that our world has ever known. In the midst of this, God is regathering the Jewish people; and collecting and purifying His Church. Pastor Allen makes a connection to Jesus' parable in Matthew 13 about wheat and weeds growing together until the end harvest, when the harvesters (or angels) will separate the two at the end of the age. Thank God, He is in the business of restoring us – both great and small. To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, click here: https://bit.ly/2WTieVf

We live in a season of American Christianity where it's become popular to suggest it doesn't matter if you chose Jesus, Buddha or Allah – suggesting that every path ends the same. Pastor Allen discusses how some Christians have developed a reluctance to stand up for the uniqueness of Jesus. Though it's the responsibility of Christ followers, as His Church, to advocate for His Kingdom. This episode encourages us to hold on to our liberties and freedoms by finding our voice for biblical world views.

We're in desperate need, in this nation, for the Spirit of God to bring restoration to His people. You might think you're disqualified because of your inconsistencies, failures or detours you've made in life. In this episode Pastor Allen urges us to stop letting guilt and shame separate us from the invitations of God. Jesus is doing something in the earth – get out of the seat of the sceptic – and get in on it!
