“The reason this podcast is now called Awake comes straight from Scripture—‘Awake, O sleeper, and rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.’ This is a call to wake up spiritually, to move past comfort, past tradition, and into a faith that transforms lives. If you’re tired of surface-level Christianity, you’re in the right place. Faith was never meant to be lived asleep. This is a wake-up call—to truth, to love, to real discipleship. If you’re ready to open your eyes and walk it out, ...

If there’s on topic that has captured our collective imagination, it’s the question of what (if anything) happens to us after we die? A quick web search reveals books, television shows, and movies that have all speculated various scenarios, most of which have very little relationship to what the Bible actually teaches. Even among followers of Jesus, there are different ways of thinking about and articulating what happens in the afterlife. Over these four sessions, Pastor Tom Holladay and Kay ...

Often in life, we feel abandoned. We pray, we seek God’s direction, we ask for His plan yet silence seems to answer us back. In those moments, it’s easy to believe that God has walked away. But the truth is not that God has abandoned us— it’s that we often interfere with the very plans He is working out. 1.Interfering with God’s Plan Many times, we…

“The church hasn’t fallen asleep overnight—we’ve been napping.” A nap feels harmless: Comfortable Temporary Unintentional But spiritually: Naps turn into missed moments Missed warnings Missed assignments “You can love God and still be asleep.” Paul isn’t talking to the world—he’s talking to believers. He isn’t talking to religious people he is talk…

the place in life where faith gets real and comfort gets challenged. This is a space for believers who know God is calling them higher, deeper, and stronger. Life will test you. Faith will be refined. Discipline won’t always feel good—but it will produce something holy. So if God is calling you to grow, to endure, and to step out in obedience… Then…

When we think of the birth of Jesus, we often recognize the gift—but do we truly see the perfection of that gift? He was born as a man, yet lived a blameless life here on earth. He walked without sin, without fault, without compromise. And still, He willingly gave His life for a world that would despise Him, reject Him, and turn away from His love …

Matthew 2:11–12 Fit for a King There is a truth we must understand today: Not one of us has anything fit for a King. We possess nothing material that can please the Lord. Not our passion. Not our dedication. Not our commitments. Not even our words. None of these, by themselves, can satisfy the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings. Yet Scripture remi…

Tell Me Proverbs 8:1-17 We say this phrase often in our prayer life as a church Lord tell me me give me Wisdom But the reality is this we often times don’t want to know we don’t really want wisdom nor what God wants for us. We say we do but if it makes us uncomfortable in certain areas well that’s not Gods will. It can’t be it makes me uncomfortabl…

In this sermon preached June 21, 1996, David Wilkerson encourages us to have patience and wait on the Lord. Hebrews 10:36 says, "For ye have need of patience" (KJV). God's timing is perfect, so what we see as a delay is not a delay, but it means we must trust in the Lord and have patience. The devil tries to convince us it is our fault, but the Heb…

Thanks Giving We find it hard to give thanks in all Things let’s be honest we are a people of convenience gratitude We are a people who believe thankfulness is only a thing that is necessary in a time of gain But the truth is this according to this scripture in Colisians 3:17 But it’s here that we see a outline that’s so amazing that if we are not …

When we think of the love of God we have to have a understanding that it is unconditional George straight Wrote a song titled cross my heart And in that song he says Her love was unconditional and he knew from the start But when it comes to love the truth is we are a conditional type of people. We put conditions on everything I can love you unless …

In the United States of America today, there is not one single church afraid to join together in worship. There isn't one group of people meeting in sewers or even in a house in secret, afraid for their own life. There isn't one group of people who will meet in a church who are afraid of being caught, beaten, or even killed for their faith in Jesus…

This morning, I ask you to examine your life during this message. Not just asking yourself if you have a personal relationship with Jesus, but that you are known by Him, and that people know that you know Him. We hear people say, 'Well, I was born a Christian,' or 'My mom and dad were Christians.' That doesn't make you a Christian. 'Well, I went to…

We see that the king calls for all his men and says, 'Look at this, folks. Look at what their God has done. We put three in the fire, and they didn’t scream or yell in agony and in pain. Their God showed up and walked about the fire. Smell them; they don’t smell like smoke. Look, not a hair is singed. It’s how we react in the fire; it’s when our wi…

We see that Jesus cries out and says, "Father, not my will be done, but yours." Now we have to understand that Jesus cries out of anguish and discomfort, physically, spiritually, and emotionally. How can we say that? Well, he was God in the flesh, understand, he was the Son of God in the flesh. So let me ask this: Have you ever hurt so bad, been un…

Luke 15:16-17 16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. 17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! We look at the prodigal son and instantly think of how he came back to his father. But I w…

I remember as a child, my mother would listen to the radio constantly. And many times I would find comfort in the songs that played; they became a therapy for me. And there would be times where the antenna would have to be adjusted. And just like us, sometimes we get out of tune with the Father and the Holy Spirit, and we have to be retuned so we c…

Proverbs 27:17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. Over the years, we have had a great divide among us, not just spiritually, but also in the flesh. But we have many who have been a part of the church, worked in the church, and in this realm, we couldn't do it without you. But I also want to bring this to your m…

Finding Jesus Luke 2:41-52 This week's events were not political. They were not fueled by motives of political propaganda. It was fueled by evil and pure demonic. We can articulate that it was because of politics, but let's be real, it wasn't. It was because the gospel was preached, and if you say it was political, you need to examine your own hear…

The moment that we can live out side the will of God for our lives and it not phase us. Or even call us to repentance something is wrong When we are no longer sensitive to the voice of the father calling us back When he says it’s his grace his mercy that calls us back to him He is the voice in the wilderness calling out to us by name The conviction…

The purpose and power of praise and worship Glorifies God: "Whoever offers praise glorifies Me," Psalm 50:23. Invites God's Presence: God "inhabits the praises of His people".

One of the first sayings I heard when I became a Christian was that God is faithful. We sang about the faithfulness of God. Whenever someone would endure a trial, we’d remind them that God is faithful. Faithfulness is a characteristic of God that is often talked about, but I wonder if it’s completely understood. Because we are always communicating …

1 Samuel 16:7 Here's a breakdown of the verse's meaning: "Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature": This refers to not judging someone based on their physical appearance, such as their face or height. "for the LORD seeth not as man seeth": This highlights the difference between God's perspective and human perspective. Humans ar…

In the moral sphere, every act of justice or charity involves putting ourselves in the other person's place and thus transcending our own competitive particularity. C. S. Lewis The alarming number of children in danger right here in the Southern states is alarming. Around the globe, an estimated 27 million people are exploited for labor, services,.…

This morning, I ask you: will you go? In Isaiah 6:1-8, the prophet Isaiah begins his ministry after the Lord asks, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" Isaiah responds, "Here am I; send me." However, he then acknowledges his sinful nature, saying, "Woe unto me for I am a man of unclean lips." This realization breaks him, just as it did Job …

God's highest expression of love and kindness towards mankind is rooted in His eternal plan of redemption. Christ was appointed by the Father to fulfil His plan of salvation, and to secure it by the sacrifice of His righteous life through the spilling of His holy blood on Calvary's Tree. The Son of the Father came to earth as the sacrifice for sin …
