A survey by Barna-Group reports that 47% of practicing Christian millennials agree at least somewhat that it is wrong to share one’s personal beliefs with someone of a different faith in hopes that they will one day share the same faith. This shocking statistic is a part of a larger cultural shift away from tolerance. As the world around us grows more intolerant of opinions that are different, and as people are more and more greatly offended each day by opposing views, Christians are finding it hard, and even questioning the importance of telling others about Jesus.

Evangelism is why we all believe. It is what many disciples and men of God died for. It is the reason nations like America and much of the western world has been blessed in past time. And today, we bury it as "wrong"? This calls for serious intervention: If in our spiritual circles we do not start shifting more focus to this command given by Yeshua, our children may pay the price.

Episode Notes

What is your heartstyle? The Pharisees in Yeshua's day had a large flaw: They were "clean" in their presentation, yet their hearts were evil. This compromise of men is still very much alive today, even among believers. Has our movements of clean eating, commandment keeping believers sometimes become more focused on the outward lifestyle, neglecting the inward heartstyle?

Perhaps, instead of trying to first fix an outward appearance, we should work from the inside-out, focusing on a clean heart. We cannot do this on our own, we must rely on Holy Spirit's empowerment!

Episode Notes

Are you His Bride? Will you water every camel and follow Eliezer back to a foreign land like Rebecca did for her bridegroom? It is the season for an outpouring of God's Spirit more than ever. The Holy Spirit has descended upon the Earth to gather the Bride of Christ, test her heart, adorn her, and lead her to her Bridegroom.

Many are living in the gift of Truth given at the first Pentecost; or the Gift of Spirit given at the second. But His bride will be equally yoked, and will walk in both the power of the Spirit, and discernment of the Truth.

The trumpet will soon blow, and it will become too late to be adorned for your Husband. Get ready! For He is coming!

Episode Notes

This year, I got COVID! When I did, I completely lost my sense of taste, and the Father spoke to me about it. He is calling a new breed of believer: Those who will be the salt of the Earth, never losing their flavor! Are you the type of person that people want to taste like or be around, because of the attraction of the Holy Spirit? We must taste different from the world - not lukewarm or compromising - but full of love and flavor.

Episode Notes

What's the real reason Jonah ran? Sometimes it's not just about running from a calling, but running from a people you don't truly want to see reached - because they're unclean, they're unrighteous and most undeserving. Jonah thought of himself as more holy, more righteous and more deserving than Nineveh. Since he saw himself as better, he decided to ignore God's call. Ironically, Jonah would end up in the same place as the sins of that unclean people.

The story of Jonah may just be the very reason many of us aren't motivated to reach the world with the gospel. The world is undeserving and unclean anyway, right? We might as well watch it burn! But alongside the story of Jonah runs a parallel story of Jesus: Where Jonah ran away, Jesus ran to. Discover the beautiful Jonah journey of Christ in this teaching.

Episode Notes

Raising kids is hard as it is. And now many are falling away from the faith as they grow up. But why? While there are many reasons, and it certainly isn't always the fault of parents, sometimes it is, and sometimes the reason is apparent: Whether the gospel truly is preached and lived, or whether something else is.

Episode Notes

When you study the greatest miracles of the Bible, you discover a pattern: Most of them took place between people with great disunity. Whether it's Jesus & the Samaritans, Peter & Cornelius or even the upper room of Acts 2. Holy Spirit is unifying, destroying the barriers of worldly disunity, and was sent to reverse the curse. If we're willing to go where and to whom Jesus went, we may see what Jesus saw!

Episode Notes

As a teenager, PD dropped to his knees asking God for the Truth, and God opened his eyes - exposing man-made tradition and revealing truth. But as the years went on, PD realized his heart didn't have the love of Yeshua, nor did his life manifest the wonders of God he read about in the Bible. Finally, he landed on his knees again asking God for His Spirit. What would happen next would radically change PD's life forever and send him on a journey to proclaim the gospel to nations and see the miracles of God come to life!

Episode Notes

I was 8 years old when God turned my life upside down. I had spent my early childhood years in a very normal, non-denominational Christian church. One day, the Father revealed to my mom that the so-called "Jewish Feast Days" were actually all pointing towards Jesus. This began our journey of surrendering everything that had previously made sense to step into the unknown. As a child, I was mostly just a passenger on this journey, and I struggled with the changes at first. But at the age of 14, as I studied to become a Bat Mitzvah, I began to see Scripture come alive in a personal and powerful way I had never experienced before. I no longer merely related to God through my parent's faith, but now through my own.

However, in my excitement to study Scripture, I slowly became prideful and puffed up in the knowledge I had accumulated...and I lost sight of Yeshua. So God had to turn my world upside down again, and teach me love, humility, and sacrifice. Only in complete surrender can God accomplish His beautiful plan for our lives, and this is my testimony.

Episode Notes

The world is really good at telling us what we're NOT good at! Many of us feel we have weaknesses, weaknesses so large they're keeping us from serving God the way we want to. But as for many things in God's Kingdom, the concept of "Strengths & Weaknesses" is upside down. In God's Kingdom, your weakness has become your most prized possession. In this teaching, we'll discover why that is, and how you can be free from the bondage keeping you back.
