Overcoming Evil and Serving God - Part 1

“The great duty of your life is the pursuit of Almighty God,” Pastor Allen Jackson said. “Everything else is secondary to that.” In this sermon, Pastor Allen discusses the importance of knowing and understanding the character of God. He shares lessons from history—stories from the Old Testament centered around the life of Joshua, as well as insights on early Church reformers and more contemporary figures—to demonstrate how we can courageously follow our assignments to honor God. Overcoming evil is one of the best ways to please God!

Angels, Demons and You - Good and Evil On Display - Part 1

There’s more to our faith than attending church services and Bible studies. A spiritual realm exists around us, impacting us every day. Are we aware of it? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual realm’s influence on Jesus’ ministry found in the Gospel of John. Both angels and demons were present as He worked in the earth, and Pastor Allen shows that we can’t ignore the influence of spiritual things today. He illustrates the division and deception present during Jesus’ life even as He worked incredible miracles, like resurrecting Lazarus, and he shows us that we have a choice to make, too: Will we side with the Pharisees in unbelief, or walk with Jesus in belief?

Angels, Demons and You - Can You See?

What orients our lives? A political party, our careers, our families? What about our faith? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the sacrifices that come with following Jesus and the courage we must cultivate to take our faith into public arenas. We see in the Gospel of John that following Jesus causes division, and Pastor Allen offers a biblical approach to handling conflict in our communities and nation. The fear of rejection and fear of pushback from authorities is not new to the twenty-first century, but neither is the boldness found from trusting in Jesus’ saving grace.

Lead with Faith - Faith Under Pressure

God has called us to be overcomers, not overlookers. Remembering how God has delivered us from previous difficulties can help strengthen us as we encounter new challenges today. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the growing pressures Christians will face between now and Jesus’ return. He reminds us we shouldn’t be surprised by opposition and offers examples from Jesus’ and Peter’s lives to show how they chose to stand firm in the Truth, pleasing God and following Him instead of conforming to the culture.

A Life Saved vs. A Life Surrendered [Featuring Dr. Juris Shibayama]

This episode will challenge listeners to rethink their understanding of salvation and how living out their faith in the workplace can have a profound impact on people's lives. Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with Dr. Juris Shibayama to explore his remarkable journey from being an atheist to fully yielding his life to the Lord. Driven by an unrelenting search for truth, Dr. Shibayama reveals how influential books like Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis and The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel helped confront his skepticism and pride. The pivotal moment in his journey came when he realized there is a profound difference between being "saved" and truly "surrendered" to Christ.
