We're watching as resistance to God's Kingdom increases and darkness in our nation and around the globe grows bolder—but when we learn to recognize God's character, intentions, and voice, His movement in the earth becomes more visible than the expressions of evil around us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the figure and spirit of antichrist discussed in the book of Revelation. He offers history about the expressions of the antichrist we've witnessed before, and he shares how we can persevere in the face of growing lawlessness and persecution. We have a choice to make: Will we capitulate to fear and darkness, or will we decide to focus our attention and energy on the triumphant Lion of Judah?

Hardship and troubling times won't come because of political or economic turmoil; these seasons will be driven by the degradation of human character. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can live with peace through frightening times. We see in the Book of Revelation that we will need courage to persevere through persecution, but Pastor Allen reminds us that we can rely on God's judgment, justice, and provision to stand boldly. God has sent us the Holy Spirit as our helper, counselor, and comforter, and through Him, we can fulfill the assignment of the Church: sharing the Good News of God's Kingdom to the ends of the earth.

We should all strive to mature in our faith, but what does that look like? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it means to grow up spiritually and truly live out a transformational faith. He teaches that maturity means being responsible and accountable, and he shares biblical and practical advice on how to develop these traits in our daily lives. Practicing politeness and gratitude can change our thoughts and attitudes to align better with Scripture's definition of growth. Maturity won't exempt us from suffering, but it gives us the strength and skills we need to navigate difficult seasons. Our faith is intended to be transformational—not to get our way, but to be changed from the inside out.

Our nation is suffering from ungodly spiritual influences, but we can begin the healing process when we earnestly seek the Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what happens when we pursue God wholeheartedly. He shares the incredible impacts of fasting and prayer on our relationship with the Lord, on our spiritual growth, and on our nation. Pastor Allen also teaches about gifts that can come only from God, like righteousness and truth. Lawlessness and demonic influence may be increasing, but our Lord rewards those who honestly and unreservedly seek after Him.

Seeking God begins with a personal and deliberate choice, and it results in lifechanging responses from the Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses pursuing the Lord through fasting and prayer. He draws from the lives of Daniel and other spiritual leaders in the Bible to teach how to fast, what sacrifice and self-discipline look like, and how the Lord is willing to respond when we humble ourselves before Him. Evil is rearing its head with the rise of lawlessness in our nation, but with God's power and authority it will be overcome. Our Lord writes new destinies for us when we seek His face.

Following Christ shouldn't make us passive—the Lord's intention is to unleash us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of seeking the Lord and building an intentional relationship with Him. When we purposefully pursue God, He gives us peace in any situation and the boldness to overcome evil. Pastor Allen lays out the biblical guidelines for how we interact with the evil in our world, and he shares what it looks like on a practical level to strive for greater knowledge of God. Others may ask us why we should seek the Lord, but we can know with confidence that it's the most worthy pursuit for our lives.

It's become fashionable to diminish our faith, but compromise is destructive. We are meant to be warriors for God's Kingdom. In this interview, Pastor Allen Jackson talks with Lieutenant General William G. "Jerry" Boykin, a retired Delta Force veteran, about being courageous and steadfast in our faith, even amidst difficult, life-threatening, and hostile situations. General Boykin reflects on his 36 years in the military and beyond, telling miraculous stories of God's protection and reassuring us that God will never leave us nor forsake us. He also offers encouragement for fathers, intercessors, and anyone struggling with the temptation to capitulate their faith. "You need to know what your values are. You need to know what you believe in. You need to know what you're willing to sacrifice for, what you're willing to even die for," General Boykin said. "But you need to know why you believe it."

The Bible says we're going to need strength and effort to follow the Lord. In fact, the greatest demands of our lives will be attached to our faith. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can step up and shape culture with our allegiance to Jesus Christ. It begins with intentional spiritual growth and discipline—often uncomfortable, but necessary. Pastor Allen shares the importance of influencing the next generation to practice godliness, and he speaks on the biblical reasons Christians should support the Jewish people. There's a lot of pushback in the culture regarding those two issues, but God is shaking the earth, revealing Himself as the only steady foundation. We can trust that He will restore His people.
