As demonic activity increases, we need to understand and cooperate with the Holy Spirit in ways we haven't known before. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the reality of the spiritual realm using the Book of Revelation. As the apostle John is invited into the throne room of God, Pastor Allen explores what is happening there. What did John see? What does the throne room like?

#391: Is Nothing Sacred?

Even though our culture behaves like nothing is sacred or holy, God has not redefined His standards. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses seven biblical principles that used to be held as sacred in our society: marriage, the protection of children, truth, faithfulness, justice, free speech, and the authority of Scripture. Today, these are no longer revered, but are actively mocked and deconstructed. As Christ-followers, we are called to live with a sense of the sacred and the holiness ...

#384: The Freedom of Forgiveness

Unforgiveness is a luxury we simply cannot afford. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers compelling reasons why we want to be forgiving people.

#381: No More Forgiveness?

Is there a point where the Lord will no longer offer forgiveness? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson explores passages from the Old and New Testament to help us answer this question. We don't want to live in such a way that God uses His judgement to maintain the integrity of His justice. Pastor Allen also discusses the sacrament of marriage and how our perspective on it has changed in recent decades. Our nation was formed on biblical principles, and as we drift further away from God's Truth an...

#377: It Is Time for a Change

What's the difference between transformational faith and transactional faith? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses each approach, and shows us why we should pursue a faith that continually transforms us from the inside out. We need an encounter with Jesus, and taking the posture of a learner will help us approach the gospel in a new way so it can speak personally into our lives. Pastor Allen highlights four powerful invitations Jesus offers each of us—if we accept and follow them, we c...

#376: No Troubled Hearts, No Fear

Will we give into anxiety and fear, or choose to walk in the triumph that is ours in Christ? In this sermon, Pastor Allen discusses the power of pushing back on fear by giving thanks, then highlights a passage from 2 Kings, chapter 7, where God delivers the Israelites from the Arameans by using unlikely people: four men with leprosy.

#375: A Response to Discouragement

#374: Disaster, Disappointment, and Hope

If you're frightened, anxious, or uncertain, begin to seek the Lord.

He highlights people from the Bible who sought the Lord and were helped—and those who didn't. Jesus didn't die on the cross so we could remain infants—maturing in our faith is essential to our God-assignments. As we grow in our understanding of the Lord and His character, we become equipped to...

#373: Christians, Politics, and Culture?

If our faith does not influence the place where we live, beyond the sharing of theological ideas, we have stumbled in our assignment. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the Church, politics, and culture. He offers many examples where Jesus and others in the Bible had to engage with the political leaders of their day in order to complete their assignment from God. While the Church should not endorse candidates and parties, we are absolutely called to engage in our culture, addressing ...

What does the separation of church and state really mean? On this podcast, WallBuilders President Tim Barton joined Pastor Allen Jackson to discuss these questions and more. Without a full picture of history, it's easy to be deceived, falling prey to people who offer only a portion of the truth. Barton offers insights on American history that c...

In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses several practices we can adopt to become more faithful followers of Christ.
