Understanding who we are in Christ will help us overcome much of the confusion currently saturating our world. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses who Jesus tells us we are—children of God, His friends, and salt and light in the earth. When we belong to Jesus, He becomes our Lord, and we have the great blessing of building a relationship with Him. Pastor Allen shares what each point of our identity as Christians means on a practical level and how we can only find spiritual growth when we're willing to change. We have the most valuable friendship in the universe available to us, so let's humble ourselves and get ready to grow.

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. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what to expect when we obey the Lord. He shares about the life of leaders like Moses, Peter, and John the Baptist to illustrate how perseverance through persecution is where we find spiritual growth and deeper faith. The Bible clearly tells us that, even though it's not easy to follow Jesus, the only way we can change ourselves, our communities, and our broken culture is to humble ourselves and walk with the Lord.

How many times have we said "No, thank You" to the Lord when He presents us with an opportunity? We feel inadequate, or weak, or too busy—but God knows what He is doing when He asks us to act. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Moses, one of the greatest leaders in the Bible, and how he walked in humble obedience to the Lord even when he felt insufficient for the assignment. God moves in our lives when we humble ourselves, and He promises to provide for us when we obey His commands. So, we can trust that in the midst of confusion and change around us, we have the strength and authority to make a difference through Almighty God.

One of the most consistent characteristics of the people of God in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is that they listen to God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson explains how, in order to hear what God is saying to us, we have to know Jesus of Nazareth as King and understand the nature of our position in His Kingdom. He shares that we need the humility to be learners—to have a listening posture and to intentionally invest our strength, our resources, our gifts, and our entire selves as a living sacrifice to our King. As Jesus is lifted up and given our reverence as our Lord, we will experience the presence of the Holy Spirit and hear the voice of our King.

For a handful of generations now, there has been a tremendous falling away in the American Church. Now, it's our watch. Will we impact the next generations in a way that blesses them and draws them closer to the Lord? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the generational impacts of listening to and obeying God, and he shares some tangible things we can do to make a difference in the lives of those around us. Being in God's Word regularly tunes our ears to His voice, and understanding our roles as ambassadors to His Kingdom develops our faith. What we do is more impactful than what we say, so let's stop simply talking about the truth we know and start living it out.

Are we consciously living out our faith so it brings God's blessings to the next generations? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the impact our faith can—and should—have on our children, grandchildren, and the young people in our communities. He shares examples from biblical characters like Abraham and Isaac to demonstrate how our obedience today can bring blessings for those after us. This means taking time to read and understand God's Word, learning about His character and will for our lives. Our current culture has no problem trying to influence the next generations for wickedness, so let's stand firm to push back against the darkness.

While some Christians in America have constructed a theology primarily centered in comfort and convenience, we should be willing to do whatever is necessary to fulfill the assignments the Lord has placed before us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the End of the Age, the time period right before Jesus' return to Earth. He shares what the Scripture tells us we can expect about that time—both hardships and rewards. God will bring justice and judgment to His people, Jew and Gentile alike, and the Antichrist will be defeated. So, while we live in an age of increasing deception and wickedness, let's not be captured by the darkness. Let's stay focused on what the Light is doing.

At the conclusion of this age, God's power will break forth in ways beyond our imagination. But in the meantime, we will need His help to navigate what is ahead of us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what we can expect when the prophecies in Revelation are fulfilled. He shares what Jesus tells us about the rapture, the Antichrist, and the Son of God's return to Earth—and he encourages us to live righteously, without fear of the future. Choosing to align with God's will instead of the destructive culture around us will help us to withstand any hardship ahead. So, we don't have to live in fear, anxiety, or confusion about the End Times. Our Lord is coming back!
