We may think the antidote to fear is courage, but that's not the case—the remedy for our fears is trust in God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the Church's need to stand for our faith. In this tumultuous world, it's more important than ever that our foundation is in Jesus. Pastor Allen draws from passages throughout the Old and New Testaments, illustrating the differences between healthy and unhealthy fear. He shows how we can have courage through Jesus to address current issues in our communities—like the economy, marriage, and our schools—from a biblical perspective. God is shaking the earth, but He's revealing the things that cannot be shaken: His Kingdom, His power, and His authority.

God's Word instructs us to overcome evil with good, and if we're given an instruction from God, we can trust it's possible to complete. So, how can we overcome evil with good? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson answers this question, teaching from the Gospel of Luke. He walks us through Jesus' Passion—His crucifixion, death, and resurrection—and we see different responses from different kinds of people around Jesus. Some chose to mock Him, some stayed silent, and some spoke up. What kind of people will we be? Overcoming evil will require great courage—courage that God promises to provide for us.

Even facing brutal execution, Jesus refused to disassociate from the Kingdom of God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Jesus' arrest and conviction, as told by the Gospel of Luke. Over the course of Jesus' journey, we see contrasts between those who choose to align themselves with God's Kingdom and those who do not. Pastor Allen teaches about the implications of this demonstration for the world today. It's our turn to choose: Will we believe or not believe? Will we be faithful or unfaithful? If we choose to follow God, we will face discomfort and rejection—but will we overcome that so we can boldly share the gospel in a world ripe for harvest?

Life is more difficult than we would like it to be. It comes with challenges we didn't imagine, decisions we would prefer not to face, and sometimes rejection and resistance because of our alignment with Jesus. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Jesus' time spent in synagogues. In the Gospel of Luke, we see a pattern emerge as Jesus travels from town to town spreading His message: He faces much resistance and rejection, but He remains bold in the face of persecution. From Luke's Gospel, Pastor Allen shows us what we can expect today as we follow Jesus. Are we ready to have a confrontational faith?

Our generation is at a cultural crossroads, and our future will be determined by what we decide to do. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses passages in the Gospel of Luke where we find Jesus at the Temple, as well as some important points of Second Temple history. Some of the most notable events in Jesus' ministry took place at the Temple, and He had a crucial message for His generation. Pastor Allen shows how that message applies to our generation as he offers a biblical perspective on our current cultural climate and the choice we face. Will we choose humility and repentance, or pride and indifference? The first option leads to God's mercy, while the other will bring His judgment.

Jesus gave His followers important assignments, but He didn't leave them unequipped. His power and authority are available to us, if we decide to commit to following Him. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses discipleship, as demonstrated in the Gospel of Luke. The twelve disciples didn't always have the complete picture or understand entirely what Jesus was trying to tell them—but that didn't stop Jesus from trusting them with the future of His Church. Jesus' responses to them teach us about what discipleship should look like, even today. There's a cost that comes with discipleship—but there's a great reward, too: We surrender the things that fade in exchange for eternity with our Lord.

"Disaster on God's people is disaster on God's people, and Jews and Christians are in this together," Yael Eckstein said. Join Pastor Allen Jackson for an interview with Eckstein, President of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ), as we remember those impacted by the October 7 attacks in Israel. Eckstein discusses the work the IFCJ is doing to provide aid, relief, and hope for those affected by the war. She shares how the prayers and support of Christians in America has been encouraging and urges us to continue praying for the peace of Israel. This interview was a part of the Flags of Fellowship event, hosted by IFCJ, Trinity Broadcasting Network, and hundreds of churches across the United States, including World Outreach Church. Antisemitism is on the rise again, and as Christians, we need to use our voices and boldly stand with our friends in Israel.

How can we learn to hear God when He speaks to us? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson explores what the Gospel of Luke has to say about listening to God's direction over the noise of the world. He discusses the importance of prayer, Bible reading, obedience, and pursuing relationships with other Christ-followers. He also shares the contrast found between a few key miracle stories in Luke; they can help us understand how God's instruction may differ from what culture tells us to do. Life-altering transformation is available to all of us as we choose to increasingly listen to and obey God.

In the American Church, we love to study God's Word and talk about our faith theoretically—but sometimes we struggle to apply its instruction in our lives. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the Gospel of Luke, teaching about the reality of spiritual forces in our world and showing the contrast between those who rejected Jesus' message and those who accepted it. We have that choice to make, too; will we further shy away from sharing God's Truth, or will we be people who are obedient to Scripture, even in the face of rejection?

If we want to see change in our culture, it doesn't start with politicians; it starts with us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the Gospel of Luke and what it has to say about rejection versus obedience. Throughout this Gospel, we watch as religious people like the Pharisees reject Jesus and His teachings, while people we wouldn't expect choose to believe and obey what He says. Pastor Allen confirms that the Church needs to wake up, be active in our communities, and obey what the Bible instructs us to do—even when it means rejection. It's worth it, because God promises to bless us for our obedience to Him.

Since rejection was very much a part of Jesus' life, we shouldn't be surprised when we find it to be a part of our lives, too. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the varied responses we see to Jesus' ministry in the Gospel of Luke. He faced a lot of opposition, but life-changing transformation was available to those who chose to believe and obey what He said. In Luke, Jesus acknowledges the spiritual forces at work in this world, and Pastor Allen shows us how we can apply that understanding to our culture today in areas like schooling, work, and politics. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can overcome the rejection in our lives so the plans and purposes of God can be fulfilled.

While we can celebrate the Christian heritage of our nation, we must acknowledge the current momentum of our culture is pointed away from obedience to God. This change isn't driven just by physical forces in our world, either. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict taking place throughout our culture. He teaches from the Gospel of Luke to illustrate the source of resistance, dark forces, and wickedness we experience all around us, especially as we work to be obedient to God. Pastor Allen informs us about some of Satan's tactics he uses to attempt to lead us away from God, and he shares with us two opposing responses to Jesus' ministry found in Luke. Which side do we want to be on—rejecting Jesus, or choosing obedience to what He says?

Will we have the courage to take God's Truth into our culture, even in the face of backlash and criticism? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson explores what the Gospel of Luke says about John the Baptist. He had an uncomfortable message to share with his community, and he met much resistance; however, John didn't back down, and we shouldn't, either. Pastor Allen draws from the book of Luke to teach about the reality of spiritual forces in our world and our need to rely on God, especially as our culture seems to drift farther and farther from Him. The Church has a role to play in the earth, and it's time we stand up for our faith and invite God to direct the future of our nations.

We tend to think more information would be helpful when we're deciding to respond to God's call—but actually, what's most helpful is obedience and a willingness to believe. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the opening chapters of the Gospel of Luke. In them, he shares with us different accounts of belief and obedience, including the stories of Zechariah, Mary and Joseph, Simeon, and others, and the results of their decisions to trust or doubt God. Pastor Allen shows how these stories—and the lessons they teach—connect with our culture today. God is moving, and being in tune with his Spirit is vital in today's confusing world. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can thrive by practicing God-honoring obedience and belief.

To what extent do we let the Word of God define our day-to-day lives? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can lose our Christian traditions and ideas over the course of generations, if we don't prioritize them in our lives now. One of the most important aspects of our faith that we see drifting away today is worship—reverent, biblical, God-honoring worship. Pastor Allen teaches about false gospels that have invaded the Church, making many into civic clubs instead of places where people can earnestly seek God and His truth. True praise starts with our attitudes toward the things of God. Worship begins as a posture within our hearts, inviting the presence and power of Almighty God into every aspect of our lives.

Something is happening in our world that can't be fully understood in terms of nation-states, politics, and economies. There's another force—a spiritual conflict—at work in the earth. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses spiritual realms and spiritual forces that affect us daily. He draws from the teachings of the Apostle Paul in the book of Ephesians to illustrate how we need to lean on God as our Protector in these uncertain times. Satan will try to attack us and distract us, but deliverance is possible through God. Only He can truly secure our peace and joy!

We're told the most secure thing we can have is silver or gold, but our true stability comes from strengthening our faith in Jesus. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of generosity. He also talks about the reality of God's faithful provision as we increasingly learn to trust Him with our resources. God calls us to plant seeds—being generous with our time, resources, and attention—as an expression of hope and confidence in His ability to provide. We will see a harvest as we do so. It's not about the amount we give, but cultivating a heart that's willing to give sacrificially.

What's the best way to prepare for the uncertain future ahead of us? Trust God with our resources! In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about the biblical principles surrounding the money, resources, and possessions God has entrusted to us. He discusses the "Financial Ten Commandments"—biblical teachings about money, tithes and offerings, working, debt, contentment, and generosity. He also shows how these ideas connect with our current culture and economy. If we want to secure our futures, both on Earth and in Heaven, we need to depend on God as our Provider.

Is it possible to experience a significant move of God without disruption, difficulty, and determination? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the history of the church in Ephesus, illustrating the reality of spiritual opposition in the world, both then and now. He draws from Acts and the Apostle Paul's letters to show how spiritual forces are influencing our culture—and how God can help us fight back. Our communities, cities, and nations are divided, but with the Holy Spirit's help, we can have the courage to speak the truth in love.

The Devil will try to convince us we were disqualified from God's purposes by circumstances that are completely beyond our control. But in this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the lives of two of Israel's kings, David and Solomon, to illustrate how the circumstances of our births don't define the impact our lives can have for the Kingdom of God. Pastor Allen teaches about the importance of obedience and repentance. He also asks us to consider what legacy we want to leave and how we want to stand before God on Judgment Day. It doesn't matter where we were born, what family we come from, or how many resources we have—we want to be known as a generation that pleases God.

Our generation is presiding over one of the most precipitous declines of Christian influence in the history of the Church—but we can change that. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses our need for repentance, or truly turning away from our sins. He teaches about the spreading influence of paganism and false gospels in our culture, such as Pelagianism and the gospel of cheap grace. Pastor Allen reads from Matthew, Luke, and other books to emphasize upholding a biblical definition of marriage and the importance of protecting children. If we want to see change in the culture around us, we ourselves must have a change of heart.

Resentment is a dangerous filter to view the world through. It can grow into anger, hatred, bitterness, and all sorts of destructive things—but there's an alternative: forgiveness. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the damaging effects of resentment versus the freedom found in forgiveness. He teaches about transactional faith as opposed to transformational faith— "using" God to get our ways versus letting Him change our lives. Pastor Allen emboldens us to have the courage to forgive others and to speak out about our faith, even in the face of criticism. During this season of increasing division, it's time to have a change of heart and let go of our unforgiveness.

The condition of the hearts of the people of God play a role in determining God's response to that generation. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of forgiveness in finding freedom and initiating change in our spiritual journeys. He relates instances from the lives of Joseph, Daniel, and Jesus, demonstrating what forgiveness looks like, even in the hardest situations. Pastor Allen also provides insight on the effects of unforgiveness we see in our culture today. We want to be a generation that pleases God, so it's time to have a heart change—it's time to forgive.

If we're truly following God, we should look different—not strange or silly, but different in the choices we make and the values we keep. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the escalating spiritual conflict present in the earth and how we need to respond. He offers insight into false gospels and false churches currently surrounding us, including social gospels, socialist gospels, and universalism. Drawing from the books of Galatians, 2 Corinthians, Acts, and others, he also shares the importance of growing up and maturing spiritually. Deception is on the rise, but so is the Spirit of God. Through Christ, we have access to a power, Kingdom, and authority higher and greater than anything in this world.

When the Spirit of God moves, disturbances to our routines, our communities, our nations, and the earth are inevitable. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses our need for a change in our attitudes, our desires, and our understanding. He shares moments from the books of Acts and Galatians to demonstrate the necessity for a greater awareness to spiritual forces moving in the earth—false gospels, prophets, and churches, and spiritual forces that are shaping history and influencing current events. Pastor Allen talks about the difference between living our lives based on human instincts versus being guided by God's Spirit. If we want to see change in our world, it must start with us—and as we pursue God, He will be faithful to produce that change within our hearts.

"I am praying for a restoration in our country, a revival in our country. And I believe that starts with us—not in D.C. It starts with us here," said Chad Robichaux. Join Pastor Allen Jackson for this interview with Robichaux, who is a USMC Force Recon Veteran and a Department of Defense Contractor. They discuss topics including the current US election cycle, the war in Ukraine, the war in Israel, and the role of the Church in the world.

God is actively recruiting people who are willing to be an influence and make an impact for the Kingdom of God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson addresses our assignment to "stand in the gap" in our culture and our communities. We, like Ezekiel, can lead those around us toward the purposes of God. Pastor Allen offers several ways we can expand our influence, including looking for ways to serve others daily and intentionally aligning our values with God's. He emphasizes the importance of children and cultivating a childlike faith in the Kingdom of God. He also discusses the reality of the spiritual realm and why it's vital to pay attention to who or what you're serving. After all, when we decide to serve God, Heaven itself unlocks our potential.

With deception increasing around us, we need to learn how to confront evil. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses strategies for overcoming the expressions of evil we encounter. He uses events from Jesus' ministry and the history of the Church to illustrate the need to invite God into every circumstance of our lives. Pastor Allen emphasizes the power we have to speak truth into other peoples' lives through our testimonies.

To walk in God's light, we need to be willing to repent. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the battle between truth (light) and deception (darkness) that's present in our world today. There are several things we can do to protect ourselves from deception, including choosing the truth, praying, and practicing repentance. Pastor Allen offers Scripture to show how Jesus wasn't shy about proclaiming the truth, and we shouldn't be, either. Women play a significant role in God's Kingdom, and Pastor Allen highlights several godly women in Scripture to show the impact of their faith. He also discusses the importance of godly parenting. It's time to surrender our dreams—and our dreams for our children—to God. As we commit our paths to Him, He will use our lives to bring His truth to our generation.

"The great duty of your life is the pursuit of Almighty God," Pastor Allen Jackson said. "Everything else is secondary to that." In this sermon, Pastor Allen discusses the importance of knowing and understanding the character of God. He shares lessons from history—stories from the Old Testament centered around the life of Joshua, as well as insights on early Church reformers and more contemporary figures—to demonstrate how we can courageously follow our assignments to honor God.

God is calling forth a new generation of heroes. Will you be one of them? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it takes to be a true hero: standing for a biblical, Judeo-Christian worldview; acknowledging Jesus is Lord; and learning to say "no" to ungodliness and "yes" to godliness. He offers several examples of what this looks like from the Bible and our world today. Following God requires obedience, and when we choose to stop looking for the applause of men and instead seek to please God, He meets us with peace, strength, and courage. Pastor Allen also offers several ways we can trade in our own perspectives for God's, which leads to greater freedom.

The goal of enduring is not just endurance—it's triumph. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it takes to be a hero in our generation. Heroes consistently face strong opponents, adversity, and challenges—but it doesn't stop their mission. Instead, they allow those obstacles to make them stronger. We see this truth throughout American History and the Bible. Following Jesus comes with a cost, and Pastor Allen offers several examples of people in the Bible who made great sacrifices to follow the Lord—and their obedience changed the course of history.

To understand America's history, you must acknowledge the blessings of God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how the Christian faith has impacted our nation. The Declaration of Independence acknowledges God's sovereignty, stating we are "endowed by (our) Creator with certain unalienable rights." We need to invest in developing our character—and our children's character—so we're prepared to protect our freedoms and liberties with the same kind of tenacity previous generations held. Pastor Allen provides insight on what it means to be a hero. Heroism doesn't come from being a celebrity or a movie star. True heroism comes from the Spirit of the living God within us, who will help us do mighty things—overcoming, persevering, and honoring Him in any circumstance.

At the end of the day, the best leaders are the ones who bring the blessings of God upon the people around them. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the behaviors that will help us lead effectively in the approaching season. Instead of relying on "how we've always done it," we need to become more interdependent on God—intentionally learning, growing, and being open to new things God wants to show us. A heart that's willing to grow and change comes through cultivating humility, recognizing and repenting for our own pride, and choosing to be obedient—even when it's difficult or doesn't make sense. Investing in these character traits will help us to hear God and carry out His purposes more effectively as we move forward.

Being a strong leader doesn't require a large following or the type of influence that's recognized by others. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what makes leaders great, according to Jesus, and how this differs from the world's standards. He reviews passages from Hebrews 11 and Acts 16, highlighting people who allowed God to speak into their lives and their determination to follow Him, even when it required changing their course. At times their faithfulness led to opposition, not applause. We will encounter the same today as we follow the Lord into the assignments He has for us. The season ahead will require a new level of interdependence on the Lord—a desire to seek His wisdom and follow His Spirit, so we can recognize His truth amongst the confusion.

Our current season is demanding us to grow spiritually, and the Holy Spirit promises to help us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers several observations from his recent trip to Israel that speak into our lives today. Though the Israeli people live in a war zone, their lives show a remarkable sense of peace that can only come from God. We can gain that peace by drawing closer to the Holy Spirit and becoming more interdependent on Him. He is the one who will teach us, guide us, counsel us, and instruct us through what's ahead—if we're willing to welcome Him more fully into our lives.

God is still recruiting men and women who will give themselves to His purposes. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about the importance of choosing to please God, saying "yes" when He recruits us for assignments. Pastor Allen shows how several heroes in the Bible responded when God asked them to do something difficult. Their initial responses were much like ours: "I'm not ready; I'm not capable; I'm too busy; There are other people more qualified to do that, God." When God calls us to do something new, it generally comes with challenges. But if we determine to pray, please God, and do difficult things, He will use our lives to accomplish mighty things in His Kingdom.

When we decide to honor God with our lives, it brings a significance to them that extends beyond time. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers fundamental principles that can help us understand how to please the Lord. It begins with cultivating a respect and a reverence for God, along with a heart that's reluctant to do anything that displeases Him. Pastor Allen provides a simple framework to help us evaluate whether our actions, behaviors, attitudes, and intents are pleasing to God—or not. It takes faith to please God, and it also requires being willing to accept His course correction and discipline.

If we don't know the character of God, it's impossible to know how to please Him. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how, if we intend to please God, we need to recognize what actions bring Him pleasure and those that invite His wrath. We find examples of people pleasing God in every book of the Bible, and Pastor Allen offers insight on what this looks like in Daniel's life and the parable of the talents. These stories show a variety of behaviors that led to God's trust and reward, and those that caused His displeasure. We cannot continue to make decisions that go against God's Word and expect Him to continue to extend His blessings. But when we live our lives from a posture of wanting to please Him with our time, energy, and resources, He promises His grace and protection.

Let's please God. Making that statement the focus of our lives will cause the troubles of this world to dim as we engage in the specific assignments God has for us each day. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about the freedom that comes from choosing to please the Lord in each decision we make. Our tendency is to please men or fit in with the culture. This is nothing new; we see examples of this behavior throughout the Bible. The truth is that our choices either please the Lord—or they don't. There is no middle ground. Let's be a generation that's defined by our willingness to please God.

Here's a clear action plan that will help us navigate what's ahead: Let's please God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about some of the difficulties we're facing as a nation, then offers a pathway toward contentment and peace: making consistent choices that please God. If we allow it, God will use our daily lives to influence, encourage, bless, and bring truth to the people around us—changing hearts, lives, and ultimately our nation. To know how to please God, we need to be familiar with His character and His Word. Pastor Allen offers biblical insight on what pleasing God looks like when it comes to money. When we focus on pleasing God, it opens our lives to His power, every place we go.

If we choose to follow God, He will help us navigate the difficult mountains of life—even when the odds are stacked against us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about our significance to God and His plan for restoration that will help us through any struggle. He discusses incidents from lives of David, Peter, Noah, and Moses, showing their faithful obedience to their assignments—and God's response when their efforts fell short. When we submit to the simple practices that grow our faith—reading the Bible, praying, and intentionally choosing to yield to God's plans—God will strengthen us for our current assignments and entrust us with more.

You need to know what to do in a crisis before you find yourself in one—because at that point, it's too late to make a plan. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson points out the crisis we're facing as a nation, and God's plan that leads to restoration. He offers insight from the book of Leviticus, which shows God's great holiness and our need for repentance. When we turn our hearts toward God and choose to pursue holy lives, it opens doors of possibility only He could orchestrate. He points out fundamental truths about our faith and God's character that provide a firm foundation in any crisis we may face.

Just as physical mountains separate masses of land, we can have spiritual mountains in our lives that separate us from God's best plans for us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson explores barriers that may exist in our lives and the provision God offers to help us overcome them. Many times, the best way over a mountain isn't by scaling it, but by finding a mountain pass—a low path that allows you to traverse the mountains with less effort. In a similar way, God's plans for deliverance and restoration offer us a straight path to connect with Him, so we can have His help as we navigate the challenges of life.

We need to be aware of the battle taking place within us and around us, and the authority we have through Christ. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the conflict between good and evil and the way it has infiltrated the Church, our culture, and ourselves. He points out several ways good and evil presents itself in the Bible and our world today. Each generation must decide whether they will honor the Lord, and we are no different. To follow God means actively seeking Him and being willing to engage in what He's doing in the earth. Choosing to align ourselves with God gives us access to His authority, which has power over evil.

The battle between good and evil exists around us every day, we just need to be willing to recognize it. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the reality of good and evil and its impact on us. We find many examples of "good" in the Bible including miracles, stories of God's grace and deliverance, and the blessings that come to people who choose to follow God. We also find many examples of evil and the devastation it brings. Evil is the work of Satan, who intends to kill and destroy God's people. It's time to decide: Will we will follow God and His principles, inviting good into our lives; or will we choose to pursue evil by dismissing God and His Truth?
