Fight! It's as simple as that! We are all being called in our lives individually, and collectively as a body to silence the taunts of the enemy. We're called to lead our families in the righteous path by being men and women of action who surge forward in doing the will of God. This create a momentum that makes our families and our brothers victorious. By taking action and defying our enemies taunts, we will make others dominant in their pursuit to overcome the world. Listen to this inspiring ser...

Lives are being transformed in our very midst! Ancient enemies are being put under foot and our courage is rising because our king is with us! Brothers Linton and Abimbola delivered an honest, sober, and unfiltered word entitled “Silencing Dogs and Rising Courage”. We grappled with the dogs that are seeking to devour, rob, and downright disqualify us as we are pursuing righteousness. We did this by learning from the lives of men like David how to rise up in the courage that is ours in Christ Jes...

What a blessing it is to be taught how to receive the one thing that matters! Our passover lamb and his apostles have gone before us to show us how it must be attained. We learned in this sermon entitled "The Only Thing That Matters" that we need those midnight hour kind of moments in our lives if we truly want to experience the deliverance of resurrection power. Even though the tenth plague is absolutely necessary, it is not intended to destroy us, but to bring about perfect freedom under the m...

The Lord is stirring us up as a body, and we are rightly responding to the revelation that has come from heaven. Our Pastors (Judah and Wade) gave us a raw, heartfelt exhortation to have our hunger and spiritual appetite increase. This increase is not for one singular person but rather the family unit as a whole. As heads of households, we were charged to take sober assessment to rightly discern what our families can handle and to cultivate in our homes a spiritual appetite for the very Lamb of ...

Our weaknesses will not kill us! This was the encouragement we received from brothers Paul Rosales and Marlin Sosa in this message entitled "Let's Go Die With Him". Instead of our weaknesses killing us, we learned that they actually served the purpose of leading us to the resurrection of our God when we choose to die willingly. Making this choice of our own accord makes way for the opportunity for him to raise us up. We must remove all unbelief that keeps us from willingly laying down our lives ...

The Spirit of God is moving in our midst, and we are responding in full surrender! “Who is Able?” preached by Pastor Nik and Pastor Matt is a resurrection message you will want to listen to again and again. We learned that to experience true resurrection, we must experience death over and over. We came to the understand that there is not a single death or a single resurrection that we are aiming for and this biblical truth can be seen through the lives of men of God like Moses, Isaiah, and Peter...

In this honest reflection, Pastors Nick and Payton reminded us that the process of the Lord making us to know always begins in weakness. This weakness leads us away from pride and self-dependency, and towards a deeper more intimate walk with him. This messages encourages us to continually press into whichever way the Lord is disciplining us because he it is the vehicle by which he is allowing us to share in his holiness. When we can see it in that light, we can choose to continually take up our ...

We were challenged! We were confronted! We are all the better for it! As believers, we know that we are to have pure, holy, and godly desires. Yet we still find that we have a whole lot more fleshly cravings and unhealthy desires than we would like to admit. In this sermon entitled “Hosanna”, Pastors Wade and Matthew illustrate for us in a honest and candid transparent message that is made to cause us to wrestling with what is going on in our hearts. There are unhealthy appetites and carnal crav...

In many ways, this message is about finding the most important lost coin of all. It is at the core of everything that we do and why we do what we do. When we are able to press on to acknowledge him, to know him more intimately, only then can we know what we must do. Brothers Adam Corra and Justin Treaster stirred our souls with their own interactions with these concepts and encourage us to press on to know him better. We are the clay that he is molding, and therefore we can love every bit of his...

“Groom Conscious” preached by Pastors Nik, Payton, Matt and Wade was aimed at helping us to fix our eyes and heart on the one groom who has paid the purchase price for us. The purchase price that he paid with his life is the demonstration of the love that he has for us. Knowing this, we are compelled to love him in a way that causes everything else that competes for that love to fade away. From the beginning of the betrothal to now, our great groom has been carrying us and he will continue to ca...

Rebekah trusted Abraham's servant to get her all the way through the desert until she was one with her groom. In the very same way, the Spirit of Holiness is guiding us to becoming one with our great king, Jesus Christ. We are in a great time of preparation where we are learning that the mere anticipation of being united to him is what will drive us along in the sanctification process. Our longing for him is what keeps causes us to desire to be set apart for him. As the sermon was titled, it's "...

What a revelatory time we had this morning! We were led on a spiritual journey through the biblical narrative and imagery of the betrothal process of a bride to her groom. In this sermon entitled “Coins and Camels”, we examined the serious commitment that the believer has made to our groom King Jesus. A commitment that is part of the betrothal process, promising to make ourselves ready to be with him on that day. This betrothal process requires daily examination of our deeds, making sure to sear...

We live in a day and time where everyone wants to be great. This is good, and our heavenly King Jesus has given us the recipe for success in this matter. They way we become great is by getting down in the dust and serving our brothers so that they rise! Our mandate is to get the dust off our brothers shoulders and to ensure they are walking in the full confidence of their function. Men who were once called useless are being raised up into equal status as brothers by the service we provide to the...

What a powerful time we are having here at LCM! We are fine tuning our faith and our relationships with one another. In this sermon, entitled “Foundational Elements” preached by brother Justin Treaster and Pastor Matthew Perot, we learned the importance of the foundation that spiritual fathers are to set for their sons. The goal is that those sons build upon the foundation that has been laid and are raised up to become brothers that partner with their fathers in the kingdom work. Through the liv...

We are thriving under the tension that we both have all we need, while at the same time we must hunger for more. In this message entitled “Filling Empty Jars”, we learned that the link that binds this tension is the tantamount responsibility that we have to pour out our lives into those around us. We have been given what we need only so that we might exert ourselves to give them what they need. Only in this way can we cry out for more, because the Lord fills those who are pouring out. What an en...

Limits are being broken and the light of Christ is shining forth in our midst! “Dawn Arriving” preached by Pastors Nik, Payton, and Judah moves us forward in the revelation that our good Father has given us. Through the lives of men like John the immerser and Eli the priest, we learned that our light and our lamp is inevitably going to go out. Grasping this reality about our state, we have to make it our aim and life’s goal to ensure that the light and lamp shines brightly for the spiritual sons...

We are making good on the heavenly deposit that has been given to us! Our brothers Justin Linton and Abimbola Daramola laid out the practical steps of how we are to raise our sons into Fathers in this sermon entitled “Making Fathers Out of Sons’. The biggest roadblock that must be moved out of our way is we must learn how to get over ourselves and give to others what has already been entrusted to us. Getting this preliminary step right, will cause us to rightly walk out the remaining practical s...

There’s a spiritual shift that has taken place and is showing up in the physical manifestation in our congregation. Pastor Matthew and Pastor Wade deliver not just a sermon, but demonstrated the heart of our great king. In the sermon, entitled “Lift Up Your Eyes”, we talked about the immense importance of fathers and sons, and the relationship between both to advance the kingdom. We are called to be fathers who take our sons, aim them at the target, and goal of becoming fathers themselves. From ...

My goodness! When you know that you HAVE received what you asked for in him by faith, that puts on a collision course. There's only one thing left to do and that's to "MOVE FORWARD"! Brothers Caleb Brown and Abimbola Daramola took us on a journey through scripture surveying men who heard from the Lord and did just that, moved forward! We learned that you actually don't have to hear for yourself, you might even be fifth in line. Men of God hear what the Lord has said, pick up their mantle, and mo...

We are learning to see the tension as a privilege given to us from our good Father! “Flex On ‘Em” delivered by Pastor Nik and Pastor Matthew was timely, life giving, and impactful. As the Lord is increasing the tension in our lives, it is imperative that we lean into the tension and keep our eyes on the target. Examining the lives of Job and Elisha, the ever-increasing tension reveals our heart towards our King. We have to deal rightly with our faithless heart while in the tension and not accuse...

Our good father disciplines us as the sons that he loves! He gives us the honor of allowing up to prove worthy and appoints circumstances in our lives unto that purpose. He his likened unto a heavenly drill instructor, making sure we reach the full potential that HE designed us for. We don't want to be saved from the tension or to save others from it either, because it is what allows our faith to be proven genuine. We will not ring the bell in defeat but we will cry out in dependency on him! Lis...

No matter how difficult it may be, we are choosing to stand where our King is standing! “Rising Tension” preached by Pastors Judah and Wade will no doubt move you to action if you engage with the spiritual truths and realities that are being conveyed.

But if we are wi...

We don't really wonder whether or not the sun is going to come up tomorrow. These things to us are as certain as creation itself. We have our heavenly father to thank for this because he decided to APPLY FORCE to a chaotic environment and to put it in order. Turns out we have received the very same mandate in our own lives and for our generations. In this message entitled, "Certain A.F." brothers Abimbola Daramola and Justin Linton lead us into a reflection on Sunday's message "Bending the Bow" ...

“Bending the Bow” preached by Elder Eric, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt was immensely encouraging. We are to bend the bow with what we have already been given; we already have what we need. Through the scriptural encouragement of Deuteronomy 4, we could see the steps by which we are to bend the bow. This is not a new process we are discovering but rather taking what is already in our possession and doing it all the more. What started in us was always meant to radiate out to the generations coming...

Truth is that everything we conquer today, will benefit our arrows in the future. As we overcome with the warring & shepherding ...

In this reflection from Sunday's message, "Barrier's Broken", brothers Caleb Brown and Justin Linton dove deeper to divide the diakrino left remaining in us. The truth is, we have both Peter-like and Cornelius-like diakrino in us. They then helped us to apply the solution, or better yet to recognize what has already been applied on your behalf. When we recognize two facts; 1) That his blood of Jesus is precious and powerful, and 2) It has not been shed for you to fail but to abound. That revelat...

“Barriers Broken” preached by Elder Eric and Pastor Judah is a sermon worth listening to again and again. When barriers have been broken in our lives, we can then set out as witnesses to help others have their barriers broken in their lives. This is what we see in the book of Acts with the Apostles and the barrier breaking encounters they were led into. It is also what we are experiencing here at LCM, our barriers have been broken and are being broken, bringing greater levels of unity between us...

After being made aware of these insidious tactics, the brothers impressed upon us with conviction who we really are because of who HE is.
