YOU NEED FRIENDS! The truth is anxiety comes in many different ways. Sometimes the anxiety we feel is the byproduct of thinking to ourselves, "I can't do this," or "I don't know what they will think," or maybe saying, "I'm not sure how this will end." Our mind is powerful and can quickly cause us to come up with unrealistic scenarios that only make matters worse. The key is to turn your thoughts towards heaven and talk to Jesus about it.David dealt with anxiety a lot in the Bible. I mean, the guy spent several years running for his life and hiding in caves! He often wrote about his pain and problems, which in turn helped to change his thoughts and refocus them on God's protection. Look at one of the verses he wrote in Psalm 94:19 (NIV), "When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul." David knew where he could turn to find joy amid his situation. Along with consistent prayer; To combat anxiety you need a support team! It can be tough to navigate anxiety and find someone to talk to. Truthfully, some Christians and even pastors brush it off like it's no big deal. People who haven't dealt with it might say things like, "you're not praying enough" or, "just let it go!" But let me reassure you it's a real struggle, and God sincerely wants to see you free from it. Begin by praying and asking Him to send people around you who can support you and encourage you in your darkest hour!Support the Show.

Anxiety is at an all-time high in our world right now. Have you been dealing with it lately? The thing I hate the most is that anxiety can paralyze all of us and wreak havoc on our lives. It strikes when we least expect it and seems to last forever. The truth is, prayer can change that!Many individuals in the Bible dealt with anxiety! Yes, individuals like David, Job, Martha, Jonah, Moses, and even Jesus, experienced some form of anxiety during tough times. Famines, constant war, and corrupt leadership were just a few things they were dealing with back then! So, anxiety was as much of a struggle back then as it is now. We might not be able to eliminate situations that produce anxiety, but we can be better prepared to deal with them when they arise! Even during uncontrollable chaos, you can have peace. Invite God into your situation and share your struggles and fears with Him. Let the joy of the Lord overwhelm you, and watch how your anxiety diminishes. God brings us peace even during our most chaotic moments. So today, when anxiety strikes, stop and pray. Choose to focus on the solution, which is Jesus, and allow the peace of God to overwhelm you wherever you are!Support the Show.

It's a beautiful thing when we choose to lay down our wants and needs for the things of God. A selfless prayer shifts our focus from our desires and needs to what God wants for our life. That might seem counterintuitive considering most prayers consist of asking God for His blessings and help, but that's not the problem. Asking God to help you is not what makes a prayer selfish. What makes a prayer selfish is when we begin to put our desires ahead of what God wants. When you choose to lay down what you want for the things God wants, that's selflessness. I want more than ever to be aligned with the heart of God and His will for my life. I know it can be incredibly challenging because we can't see the future, and often God's entire plan for us is not revealed all at once. The goals and dreams you have for yourself don't even come close to what God has in store for you. It's through life's journey and walking by faith that His will is revealed.Today, don't just beg God for the things you want. There's nothing wrong with asking, but choose to remain selfless by surrendering your wants to the will of God. Be willing to lay down your wants and needs for what God wants for your life and watch His miraculous handiwork. Remain humble before Him when you pray, and choose to align your heart selflessly with His.Support the Show.

Check out this new mini series from Beacon Church OnlinePrayer, it's more than a blessing over a meal or a short stanza you recite before bed. Prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have that allows us to connect deeply with God on a personal level. Unfortunately, over the years, religion and culture have attempted to redefine how to pray and even who we pray to. If you grew up in church, I'm sure you have your own definition of what prayer is to you, but what if you didn't? Prayer doesn't have to be complicated, and it shouldn't be your last resort when you happen to fall into hard times.You may have felt intimidated by hearing others' perfect prayers in the past, but the first thing you need to understand is that prayer has nothing to do with how you articulate your words. In fact, it doesn't matter how your prayer sounds at all. I want to encourage you with this truth - God could care less about how good you sound. What matters to God is the posture of your heart.So let's start out today, day one, by cutting out all the fluff. It's time to simplify your prayer life and posture your heart. Let your prayer today be genuine and heartfelt. You will be amazed at the peace you feel from spending this time with your heavenly Father. Start out by inviting His presence into your day today, and thank Him for what He has done.Support the Show.

How tired are you? Do you feel like you're running on empty? This week we continue our message entitled Running On Empty from Brandon Crook. It's easy to get drained in todays world. It seems like everything is sucking the life out of us! In our talk today we look at how the woman at the well experienced something she never felt before. She had been running on empty searching for temporary things to fill her life, but everything changed when she met Jesus.She was so excited that her life had been changed she ran back into town to tell everyone!

Stop arguing about everything. Ok that was a bit harsh, but the truth is it's time for people to get along! Everyone has an opinion and everyone comes from a different view point.  In todays talk we look back at the Jews and Samaritans. They did not get along. In fact, scriptures say Jews would go around Samaria so they didn't have to walk though the city! In this message by Brandon Crook we are reminded of the incredible passage in the Bible when Jesus meets the Samaritan woman at the well! He went against the culture in order to reach this hurting woman who needed to understand what true love is all about. She was empty and searching for something to fill the void and what she found that day changed her life. Support the show (https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/giving)

What does it mean to genuinely be blessed?You probably have the answer already started in your head.  What would happen if you lost everything you had, who would you blame?A lot of people would blame God.

Thank you for listening to the message from Beacon Church in Atlanta Georgia. As we close out the year 2020 we hope this final message inspires you to rethink the Christmas story with a different perspective. God allowed his son Jesus to be born in the messiest of places to show us there is always a miracle in the mess.

Today's message encourages those listening to realize that God is in our mess with us and can help us though the process. In fact God wants to BLESS YOUR MESS.

Thank you for listening to the message from Beacon Church in Atlanta Georgia. Giving! God has called us to "pour not store." Our God has created us to pour out, to be a blessing to others, instead of to store up just for ourselves. Generosity is not an act. It's a posture of the heart. It's a mindset. Generous people look for needs. Generous people become creative with what they have. Generous people realize that what I have is not all for me. It can be tough to think about giving and being generous when it feels like we are barely making ends meet. The truth is what we have might not feel like enough, but we serve a God who's more than enough!He will provide. He will multiply. He will bless you. The only catch is we are to be obedient and give what's He's called us too.I'M IN | Brandon Crook | Beacon Church | Atlanta Support the show (https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/giving)

Thank you for listening to the message from Beacon Church in Atlanta Georgia. We have no idea how God can use one conversation, encouragement, or expression of love to influence others. An influencer is “an individual who has the power to affect purchase decisions of others because of their authority, knowledge or relationship with their audience.”Its time to shift the way we look at influence and begin to see ourselves as influencers. The problem with current view of influence is it starts with the platform. True and lasting influence always starts with people before platform. Today we hope you enjoy this panel discussion with our team as we take an inside look at influence and how you can become an influencer!

Thank you for listening to our message from Beacon Church in Atlanta Georgia. Do you know you're invaluable. Your gift matters to God, and it matters to the church! What do you call a group of Christians gathered together to worship God, empowered by His Spirit to make a difference in this world? A group you might call the church, or Paul might call the body of Christ. On your own, you're just a disciple. But when you gather together with other Spirit filled, Word empowered believers! You take on a new identity. You are an invaluable part of the body of Christ. Anytime your enemy tells you you're not important, you're not good enough, you just step back and say, "No, my God created me.God knit you together. He specially crafted you!

For many people this has been one of the toughest season of their entire life.The world as we know has changedChurch as we we know it has changedJobs have changedIts like our whole world is screaming for HELP! This week we look at a passage of scripture found in 2 Kings 4.

Nothing left to offer. Your surrounded by emptiness and holding onto whatever you have left...But maybe just maybe what we’re holding onto is not the source of peace like we want it to be… it’s actually causing us more anxiety—because the more you think about it the more you realize it’s not enough..Maybe God wants to give you a surplus of what you’ve been asking for, and he’s just waiting for you to stop searching for it in other places..What if you looked around your life…If you searched your heart..if you could find just a little oil..We hope this message blesses you and encourages you today.Thank You for watching.Fill The Room | Brandon Crook | Beacon ChurchSupport the show (https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/giving)

Tune in to this weeks message from Pastor Brandon Crook from Beacon Church Atlanta. This is week 4 of our series called PURPOSE.Change is not always easy, but it is necessary. Jesus came to this earth to bring change! And right now by the current state of our country it is time for things to change. All through out the new testament, especially the gospels we see Jesus’ stance for the oppressed, for the misfits, for those who were hurting. Jesus wasn’t just against racism, He hated racism.God’s word is bluntWe are all created equal,We all are forgiven by the blood of Jesus,We are loved equal!God doesn’t show favoritism. In fact listen to what he says in James 2:99 But if you favor some people over others, you are committing a sin. You are guilty of breaking the law.Its time for believers to lead the way and be the change this world so desperately needs.We hope this message encourages you today!Thank you for listening.For more information about our ministry visit us at https://www.beaconchurchatl.comSupport the show (https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/giving)

A message titled "Behind The Mask" from Brandon Crook at Beacon Church Online in Atlanta Georgia. Mathew 11:28-3028 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”Have you ever been weighed down? have you been burdened by something?Have you been anxious about something?And yet with the tension that we feel on the inside..we feel like no one can know and we cover it up on the outside.People are all about that mask fashion now, it’s normal. It’s a part of society. How many have been hiding behind a mask long before this pandemic has ever happened? You don’t have to mask the pain anymore. You don’t have to mask the problem anymore.His promise implies that his power is more than enough, his power is sufficient to lift even the heaviest of problems that weigh you down.Instead of covering it up..Just come to JesusJesus Says come to me and he will give you rest.We hope this message encourages you. God sees what's behind your mask and he want to take it from you!If you would like to support this ministry fill free to go to https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/givingSupport the show (https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/giving)

Listen to pastor Brandon Crook as he preaches a message called HERE NOW on Easter Sunday 2020. We hope this message encourages you! Easter is an incredible time to remember and reflect on what Jesus did for us. But if we aren't carful we can get so caught up on what He did, we can forget He's still with us today!Jesus didn’t just raise to life 2000 years ago, He’s the representation of life itself. With Jesus, how he did things back in the day is still how he does things today, right now. Who Jesus was then is who He is now! And He’s here with us today.We know this season has been tough, but you can be reassured God is with us HERE AND NOW.Support the show (https://beaconchurchatl.churchcenter.com/giving)
