What the devil understands that most Christians don’t: The devil understands how dangerous the gift of righteousness is to God’s people and his kingdom. He understands, and he is not at war with your finances. The devil is not at war with your family. The devil is not at war with your health. The devil is not at war with your peace. The devil is...
Good afternoon. Wasn’t that a great video that we just saw? I came across it on Instagram, and I thought, «Whoa, this is really good!» So I reposted it, and then I found out the guy who made it-I’ve known him for years. He’s actually here, sitting up front. It’s David and his wife Wendy. Where are you guys? Right there! Stand up! They made this...
I want to talk to you about your life and the direction your life is taking. The title of my message is, «What’s It Going to Take?» Now, you might think that I was raised in a Christian home. Well, the very opposite was the case. I was raised in a home where there was no mention of Jesus. There was no church. There were no Bibles. My mother was...
There’s a story in the Old Testament about Elisha and his servant Gehazi. They were surrounded by enemy forces, and Gehazi was starting to freak out. Actually, Elisha had fallen asleep; he was so confident in the Lord. So Gehazi wakes him up and says, «Master, we’re going to die! What are we going to do?» Elisha, wiping the sleep from his eyes,...
Life is filled with lots of choices, isn’t it? You can sit down in front of a television set and have over a thousand channels to choose from. Have you ever flipped through those channels and literally not found anything worth watching? And if you’re like me, I’ll start on something-Oh, I’m going to watch this. And then the commercial comes, and...
Yes. What a day that was! How many of you came to the baptism? Raise your hands. Well, quite a few of you. Were any of you baptized? Raise your hands. Wow! A lot of you. Congratulations! We baptized 2,100 people yesterday, and we’re putting the numbers together. This is pretty amazing! In the last 24 months, factoring in these three Jesus...
You know we live in such a crazy, chaotic, scary world right now. Fear is everywhere. People are so stressed out. War is around the world, violence is in our streets, and there’s an uncertain future. Social media only fuels this fear. And what we need is calm in the midst of the storm. We need an oasis in the middle of that hot desert, a safe...
Have you ever wondered how long you will live? I read an article the other day that said AI (artificial intelligence) can now tell us how long we will actually live. They base that on your medical history, place of residence, and working hours. They’ll tell you effectively the date of your death. I’m not so sure I’d want to know that, actually....
You know, it feels like things are beginning to change in America. And what’s even more remarkable is this movement isn’t just being carried on by the older generation-people like me. It’s gaining momentum among the young, and I love this. I have to be honest with you: I haven’t seen anything like this since, well, the Jesus movement in...
Well, I read an interesting article from the New York Times, a former newspaper, that said there is a return of young people to church right now, especially men. Did you hear about this article? This article says, and I quote, «For the first time in modern American history, young men are now more religious than their female peers.» That’s...
