#786: Dangerous Faith [When God is Moving]
Many Church traditions are beneficial and should be taught generationally, but we shouldn’t confuse our appreciation for tradition with following God.

Dangerous faith calls people change their patterns of behavior to align with Christ instead of culture—and that’s what makes it dangerous.

#782: Our Heavenly Father
God chose to identify Himself as our Heavenly Father, and in doing so He attached tremendous value to fatherhood. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses God’s design for dads. Each of us has a father here on earth. He may be great—or not-so-great—but God is our perfect Father. As we examine God’s character in the Bible, we see what a godly dad looks like: a protector, a provider, and a spi

#777: Expressions of God's Power
Sometimes, God is waiting for us to invite Him into our days before He demonstrates His power to bring healing and freedom.

#775: Enlisted: AWOL or on Duty
When we receive the backlash that can come from speaking up about our faith, it's easy to think, "Next time, I'll stay quiet." But that's not the choice God calls us to make.

God moves

#773: Lessons in Listening - The Voice of the King
One of the most consistent characteristics of the people of God in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is that they listen to God.

We write our futures with what we choose to believe, so let's choose to believe in Jesus and His power to transform our lives.

These men weren't connected to the Jewish religion, but because of their unlikely faith, God was able to move through them and transfo

#765: Three Centurions - The Power to Change
Living out our faith doesn't mean we just go to church sometimes.

In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses two biblical leaders, Cornelius and Peter. They stood for Jesus—even when it cost them—because they understood the power God had to change

#764: Three Centurions - The Power of Words
When we're willing to fully identify ourselves with God, it opens doors for God to move dramatically in and through our lives.

Our past failures don't have the power to define our futures because we can choose to align ourselves with Jesus, the One who can overcome anything, even death.

At the scene, we're told about a Roman centurion who, against all likelihood, chooses to acknowledge Jesus as the Son of God. Pastor A

What does our relationship with Jesus look like? How we know Him matters, not because it changes Him, but because it changes the opportunities in our lives.

#753: Let's Eat - Three Banquets
