In these last days it's important to do what The Lord has called you to do and to not forsake the assembly. The Holy Spirit honors unity, and there's no time to drag your feet. www.kingdomrock.org Mission Tabernacle Outreach

Take comfort with the knowledge that God owns everything, and you are his child.

Rejoice! God has promised to take away your sickness, and restore your health.

You love God… so why do you keep losing battles you thought you’d already won? Most Christians have been taught how to fight sin, but not how to live free. So they keep trying harder, pushing more, and falling into the same cycles of frustration. But what if the problem isn’t your effort…What if it’s where you’re fighting from? In this episode, Jon Ellis breaks down what Scripture actually teaches about spiritual warfare, identity, and why so many believers feel stuck, even though Jesus already won the war. You’ll learn: ● Why fighting for victory keeps you stuck ● What it means to actually fight from victory ● How your identity shapes your ability to overcome ● Why willpower fails in spiritual battles ● How to take control of your thoughts before they control you This isn’t just about resisting sin. This is about learning how to walk in freedom. Title: How Christians Fight (Stop Losing Battles You Should Be Winning) You don’t lose because you don’t love God… You lose because you’re fighting the wrong way. In this episode, Jon Ellis breaks down how to fight from victory, not for it, and why most believers stay stuck in battles Jesus already won.

God knows you. Before you were ever formed, before anyone ever called your name, God already knew you. You are not random. You are not overlooked. You are not forgotten. In this powerful message, Pastor Timothy Elder teaches that from the very beginning, God created you with intention and marked you with purpose. Even when life makes you feel unseen, God has never lost sight of you. You are known by God—fully, personally, and intentionally. This is Part 2 of a message that will challenge how you see yourself and remind you of who you are in Him. www.kingdomrock.org

We are in a series called Holy Water, which is based on the description of the Holy Spirit in Ezekiel 47:1-5. Some people claim that God doesn’t interact with us in a supernatural way anymore; others accept anything done in the name of the Spirit at face value. Because of this, we have spent much of our time looking at how God still speaks, works, and saves through the Spirit. Throughout our series, we have talked a lot about the Spirit part of the equation, but this week’s message is called The Holy Part. With this message, we’re diving into what makes the Spirit of God different than anyone or anything else in the world, and Pastor John is tearing down two misused and misunderstood scriptures that the devil has hidden behind for many years.

Pastor Dobbs ministers from I Corinthians 15:2 on how we as a learned church must continue to hold fast to the Word that was preached to us. Paul was letting us know the importance of holding fast to the Word of God for it is life for our lives. Scripture: I Corinthians 15:2 - by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

In these last days it's important to wait on The Lord and walk with the guidance of The Holy Spirit. Don't get discouraged, He'll be there when you need Him the most. www.kingdomrock.org Mission Tabernacle Outreach

Rejoice with the knowledge that God's covenant extends to your household.

Our new covenant with God is exponentially better thanks to Jesus.

You love God… So why does it still feel like a fight every single day? Same struggles. Same temptations. Same cycles you thought you were done with. In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis exposes a truth most believers have never fully understood: You’re not fighting for victory… you’re learning how to live from it. The cross didn’t just forgive you, it paid for your freedom. And the resurrection didn’t just prove Jesus is alive, it declared that the war is already over. So why are so many believers still living like the outcome is undecided? In UNC031, you’ll discover: ● Why the internal battle is real, but the ultimate war is already finished ● How misunderstanding the cross keeps you stuck in cycles ● The difference between being forgiven and actually walking in freedom ● Why willpower isn’t enough, and what actually leads to transformation ● How to stop fighting a defeated enemy and start living in victory Here’s the Uncommon Truth: You’re not fighting for victory… you’re learning how to live from it. If you’ve ever felt stuck, exhausted, or frustrated in your walk with God, this episode will shift your perspective and give you a clear path forward. The war is not waiting to be won… it’s waiting to be believed. You love God… so why does it still feel like a fight? In this episode, Jon Ellis breaks down a powerful truth most believers miss: the war is already over. If you feel stuck in cycles of sin, frustration, or spiritual exhaustion, this will change how you see the cross, the resurrection, and your everyday battle. You’re not fighting for victory… you’re learning how to live from it.

In this message, Pastor Dobbs ministers from Philippians 3:10 on how we as a Learned Church should know about Jesus and His resurrection along with the fellowship of His suffering and being conformed to His death. As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, let us never forget that because of His love for us, He suffered and died but He rose again and is alive today! Scripture: Philippians 3:10 - that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death,

It’s been 2,000 years since Jesus’s death, burial and resurrection, and the story has been told over and over. Because we celebrate Easter every year, it has the potential to become just another story if we’re not careful. We must remember that it’s not old news or some memory we carry. Jesus lived and died. He rose again, and He is still alive — and because of that, Easter is never really over. In every town and city, among every tribe and tongue, there are parts of the resurrection story that are still being written. Because of Jesus, people’s lives are still being changed. Their yesterdays are still being forgiven, and their tomorrows are filled with hope. This week, we’re diving into the topic of “The Easter Era,” exploring how Easter is partly past tense, partly present tense, and partly future tense.

Let love continue, give thanks, and help others.

Know God, and keep his word in your heart. He will be merciful, and forget your sins.

You love God. You want to obey Him. So why do you keep doing the very thing you said you’d stop? This isn’t just a discipline issue. This isn’t just a lack of willpower. There is a war happening inside of you, and most believers have never been taught how to fight it. In this episode of The Uncommon Christian Podcast, Jon Ellis exposes the internal battle described in Scripture, the tension between flesh and Spirit, and why so many believers stay stuck in cycles of frustration, guilt, and defeat. We’re not talking about surface-level behavior modification.We’re talking about transformation from the inside out. If you’ve ever felt like: ● “Why do I keep going back to this?” ● “Why does obedience feel harder than sin?” ● “Am I the only one struggling like this?” This episode will open your eyes and give you a clear, biblical path forward. Because victory doesn’t come from trying harder…It comes from walking differently. Scriptures covered: Galatians 5:16–17 Romans 7:15–25 James 1:14–15 Here’s the Uncommon Truth: You don’t lose because you don’t love God… You lose because you’re trying to fight a spiritual war with natural strength. If this episode challenges you, share it with someone who’s been fighting silently. And if you’re ready to go deeper, grab the book I’ve Prayed the Prayer at TheUncommonChristian.com You’re not weak, you’re in a war. This episode exposes why obedience feels so hard and how to actually win the battle inside you.

Palm Sunday was a time of conflicting emotions, political and social dynamics, and the possibility of a coming Messiah. There was a lot of pressure on people, on the government and on Jesus. It’s no different for us today. If we are dealing with the pain and pressure of life, the best response is prayer, praise and worship. In this message from Corey Pearson, worship director at Covenant Life, we explore the various things that may be keeping us from fully praising God. We will discover together that praise built on outcomes doesn’t last in the face of pressure, but if our worship is built on our identity in Christ, it can endure the cross.

In this message, Pastor Dobs ministers from Matthew 21:9 and Matthew 21:16 on how the learned believers are working on perfecting their praise and their worship of Jesus. Scripture: Matthew 21:9 - Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: “Hosanna to the Son of David! ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’ Hosanna in the highest!” Matthew 21:16 -16 and said to Him, “Do You hear what these are saying? ”And Jesus said to them, “Yes. Have you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have perfected praise’?”

Be comforted with the knowledge that Jesus is praying for you.

Be patient, and remain faithful. God's word is true, and it always comes to pass. It just might take some time.

What if the freedom you’ve been chasing… isn’t actually freedom? In today’s culture, freedom is defined as doing whatever you want, following your feelings, and living your truth. But what if that definition is incomplete, or even misleading? In this episode, we unpack a powerful truth that challenges the way most people think: what culture calls freedom, Jesus often calls bondage. You’ll discover why sin rarely looks like chains at first, how deception works by redefining truth, and why the very things people turn to for freedom often end up controlling them. We also explore the idea that obedience isn’t restriction, it’s protection. Just like guardrails on a mountain road, God’s commands aren’t there to limit your life, but to preserve it. Most importantly, you’ll hear what real freedom actually looks like, the kind of freedom that doesn’t just change your behavior, but transforms who you become. If you’ve ever felt stuck, restless, or unsure why “freedom” hasn’t delivered what you expected… this episode is for you. You think you’re free… but what if you’re actually trapped? This episode challenges everything culture says about freedom and reveals why following your feelings and doing whatever you want might be the very thing holding you back. Discover how real freedom is found….not in self-rule…..but in truth.

We are continuing our “Holy Water” series. Together, we have been exploring the person and ministry of the Holy Spirit, trying to de-mystify who He is, the ways He works and His place in our lives. Last week, we started talking about the things that the Spirit empowers believers to do after salvation, starting with a look at prayer. This week, we’re exploring how He gives power for proclamation. Over and over, the Bible says something like, “And the Spirit came mightily upon Him to do this or that.” The things the Old Testament saints were able to do were the result of the Holy Spirit’s work in their lives; He enabled them to do what they did. And the result of those supernatural happenings is that God was glorified, people were drawn to Him, and word of His goodness and power spread.

Pastor Dobbs ministers from Matthew 4:4 on how a believer should follow the example of Jesus and live by the Word of God. When we follow His example, we can expect the same results that Jesus walked in while He was on the earth. Scripture: Matthew 4:4 - But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”

God knows you. Before you were ever formed, before anyone ever called your name, God already knew you. You are not random. You are not overlooked. You are not forgotten. In this powerful message, Pastor Timothy Elder teaches that from the very beginning, God created you with intention and marked you with purpose. Even when life makes you feel unseen, God has never lost sight of you. You are known by God—fully, personally, and intentionally. This is Part 1 of a message that will challenge how you see yourself and remind you of who you are in Him. www.kingdomrock.org

Praise God! Isn't it good to know that angels have been sent to minister for you, to protect you, and to assist you.

The old life is gone. We have been renewed in the image of Christ, so let's put on the new man.

Why does doing what God says sometimes feel harder than doing what we know is wrong? Many believers quietly struggle with this tension. We know what Scripture says. We feel the Holy Spirit prompting us. Yet something inside us still hesitates. In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis explores why obedience can feel difficult in the moment and why sin often seems easier at first. Drawing from powerful biblical examples like Peter stepping out of the boat and Abraham trusting God with Isaac, this episode reveals a truth many Christians overlook: obedience rarely begins with full understanding. Sin promises immediate comfort, control, and relief. Obedience often requires faith before we see the outcome. But Scripture consistently shows that real freedom, growth, and transformation happen on the other side of obedience. If you've ever felt the tension between what God is asking and what feels easier in the moment, this episode will challenge and encourage you to take the next step of faith. Because uncommon faith is not built by accident. It grows through everyday obedience. In this episode, Jon Ellis explores the tension many believers quietly face between knowing what God says and actually doing it. From Peter stepping out of the boat to Abraham trusting God on the mountain, Scripture shows that obedience often requires faith before understanding. Sin promises immediate reward, but obedience leads to lasting freedom. If you want to grow deeper in your faith and stop negotiating with obedience, this episode will challenge you to take the next step. #christiandiscipleship, #obedience, #followingjesus, #faithinpractice, #christianpodcast, #theuncommonchristian, #biblicaltruth, #spiritledlife, #christianfaith, #walkwithgod, #faithoverfeelings, #christianencouragement, #Bible, #Jesus, #HolySpirit

We are in a series called Holy Water. The goal is to de-mystify the Holy Spirit and re-frame Him in your mind using scripture. This is important because there is so much unbiblical teaching and opinions about Him out there — some out of ignorance and some that is intentionally deceptive. So far, we’ve learned that the Holy Spirit is God, and He serves many important roles in the life of a believer. Last week, we also discovered that there is a deeper (not different) work that the Holy Spirit wants to do in us and through us. This week, we are starting to explore what Jesus told the 500 believers who were gathered on the mountain in Acts 1:8. He said, “You will receive power after the Holy Spirit comes upon you. ”Many churches have emphasized other things when it comes to the Holy Spirit, but Jesus made it clear: conversations about what the Spirit offers to us after we’re saved must be rooted in the idea of power. For the next two weeks, we’re looking at what the Holy Spirit empowers us to do when we surrender to Him, starting with prayer.

In this teaching by Pastor Dobbs, he ministers from John 4:14 on the water that Jesus gives that a person will never get thirsty again. This living water completely satisfies a believer and we can partake of the living water. We may go to the well of money, school, work, social media, etc. but none will satisfy like Jesus' living water. Scripture: John 4:14 - but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

It's the little miracles that happen in our lives everyday that showcase God's goodness. HE really does care for you.

God delights in doing us good. HE loves to take care of His children.

Most Christians were told how to believe in Jesus. Very few were actually shown how to follow Him. Somewhere along the way, Christianity in the modern world became centered around decisions instead of discipleship. We invited people to pray a prayer, attend church, and try to live a good life, but many believers were never shown what it actually means to walk with Jesus day by day. And the result is something many people quietly feel but rarely talk about. They believe in Jesus… but they feel stuck. They love God… but they don’t know what following Him is supposed to look like. In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis breaks down the difference between belief and discipleship, why so many Christians feel spiritually stalled, and what Jesus actually meant when He said: "Follow Me." This conversation will challenge assumptions, bring clarity to what real discipleship looks like, and help you take the next step toward living the kind of faith Jesus actually called people to. Because Christianity was never meant to be casual. It was meant to transform your life. Most Christians were taught how to believe in Jesus, but very few were ever shown how to follow Him. In this episode, Jon Ellis explores the gap between belief and discipleship, why so many believers feel stuck, and what Jesus actually meant when He said, “Follow Me.” If you’ve ever felt like faith was supposed to be deeper than what you’ve experienced, this conversation will help you understand why.

Join Pastor Mark Stroud as he dives into ‘There’s Only One Way,’ Part 8 of the ‘Prepare for Battle’ series. This video explores why the belief in Jesus as God is considered essential for salvation, examining various names of God and scriptural perspectives. Remember, the goal is to know what you believe and why you believe it. www.kingdomrock.org #finalhour #endtimes #biblestudy #spiritualgrowth #christianliving #intime #powerofgod #walkinginpower #beprepared #trinity #endtimes #faith #spiritualempowerment #christianfaith

We’re in the third week of a series called "Holy Water," which is all about walking slowly through the Bible to understand who the Holy Spirit is and how believers are to approach, understand, and interact with Him. So far, we’ve discovered that the Holy Spirit is just as much God as the Father and the Son, He has been revealing Himself since the beginning and He resurrects a person’s spirit when they are saved and begins to influence their soul to follow Christ. This week's message challenges the idea that life for a believer after salvation is only a matter of trying to win the daily battle with the flesh. Together, we will learn that there is "something more” that is not different than salvation but deeper and expected. This "something more" is intended for everyone who gets saved, making salvation the beginning rather than the end, but to experience this saturation, the believer must surrender their soul to the Holy Spirit.

In this teaching by Pastor Dobbs, he ministers from Psalm 62:7 on how to stay in God to be satisfied. We are not here to get God to satisfy us, but we are to be satisfied in God. Scripture: Psalm 62:7 - “In God is my salvation and my glory; The rock of my strength, And my refuge, is in God.”

Apostle Jerry Boykin of Bethlehem Temple Church Of A New Beginning ministered from Proverbs 4:27 during our Spring Revival on how we must allow the Lord to shift us from prep to purpose as a Learned church. Apostle Boykin gave us three keys to preparing which was 1) divine timing, 2) preparing for spiritual growth 3) character formation. I believe you will be blessed by the message. Scripture: Proverbs 24:27 - Prepare your outside work, Make it fit for yourself in the field; And afterward build your house.

We are not negative people. So we refuse to speak negatively about anyone. Let's walk in love. www.prayerdrive.com

Pastor Curtis Jackson Sr of A Place of Refuge Thomaston ministered for our Spring Revival on "A Satisfying Word" coming from Deuteronomy 8:2. He reminded us of how important the Word of God should be in our everyday life and the benefits of doing so. Scripture: Deuteronomy 8:2 - And you shall remember that the Lord your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not.

God has good things in store for you. Through Him we can have peace always in all things. Rest in Him today. www.prayerdrive.com

What if Christianity didn’t become casual… What if we simply stopped repeating what Jesus actually said? In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis walks through Luke 14, John 6, and several defining encounters from the Gospels to rediscover a truth many modern believers rarely hear clearly: Jesus never hid the cost of following Him. He said: Count the cost. Take up your cross. Deny yourself. Sell everything. And when people walked away… He let them. This episode isn’t about harsh religion or legalism. It’s about clarity. Because when the cost is unclear, faith feels unfair. But when the cost is counted, endurance becomes possible. If you’ve ever wondered: ● Why does following Jesus feel harder than I expected? ● Was I invited to surrender…..or just inspiration? ● What does real discipleship actually look like? This conversation will steady you, challenge you, and call you higher. Strong faith is not built on comfort. It’s built on clarity. And clarity produces uncommon Christians. What if the problem isn’t casual Christianity… but unclear expectations? Jesus never hid the cost. He clarified it. In this episode, Jon Ellis walks through Luke 14 and John 6 to show why surrender was never optional, and why clarity, not comfort, builds enduring faith.

In this teaching by Pastor Dobbs of Overcomers Christian Center, he ministers from Psalm 127:1 on their 30th church anniversary on the language and lesson learned in those 30 years of ministry. Scripture: Psalm 127:1 - Unless the Lord builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; Unless the Lord guards the city, The watchman stays awake in vain.

Last week, we started a new series called Holy Water. The purpose of this series is to walk slowly through the theological and practical realities of the Holy Spirit. In the first message, we established the doctrine of the Trinity and learned that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead. We also talked about His names, His influence in the lives of believers and the many ways He reveals Himself in the Bible. The biggest obstacle to talking about the activities and invitation of the Holy Spirit in the modern church is the belief that we never need to invite the Spirit to deepen or expand His work in our lives because Romans 8 says we received God’s Spirit when we got saved. This week, we’re going to discover that, even though we receive Him when we get saved, the Holy Spirit is still at work even after salvation.

God has good things in store for you. Through Him we can have peace always in all things. Rest in Him today. www.prayerdrive.com

Be encouraged today. Our Heavenly Father's care for us also extends into the financial realm. A blessing from the Lord is on the way! www.prayerdrive.com

What if people aren’t walking away from Jesus… What if they’re walking away from a version of Him that was never deep enough to carry them through a storm? In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis tackles a sobering question: What did casual Christianity produce? When decisions outpace discipleship… When attendance outpaces obedience… When growth outpaces depth… Faith may look strong, until pressure hits. Through John 6, Matthew 13, cultural realities, revival at Southeastern University, and the taproot analogy, this episode exposes why shallow faith collapses under weight, and how rooted faith endures. This is not an attack on the church. It’s a call to build deeper. If you’ve ever wondered: ● Why so many believers deconstruct under pressure ● Why leadership burnout feels epidemic ● Why emotional faith doesn’t survive suffering ● How to build endurance instead of excitement This episode is for you. Because shallow faith won’t survive what’s coming. But rooted faith will. What if people aren’t walking away from Jesus, but from a version of Him that can’t carry them through a storm? In UNC025, Jon Ellis exposes what happens when churches grow wide but not deep. Through John 6, Matthew 13, and real cultural pressure, this episode reveals why shallow faith collapses, and how rooted faith endures. Moments don’t create endurance. Depth does.

Last week, we concluded the Overflow series with a message about the Holy Spirit and the topic of the Trinity. With people of so many different upbringings and theological backgrounds attending Covenant Life, there are lot of teachings and assumptions floating around — and not all of them are true. It may seem odd, but in order to believe the Bible, there are quite a few things we have to unlearn. This week, we’re starting a brand-new series about the Holy Spirit called Holy Water. Together, we’re going to slow down and look at the person of the Holy Spirit in scripture. The goal is to demystify the Holy Spirit and discover the God who has been here the whole time, answering questions we might have been too afraid or ashamed to ask. Why? Because you can’t have Jesus and reject the Holy Spirit.

In this teaching by Pastor Dobbs, he ministers from Psalm 46:1 & Acts 16:5 on how Timothy helped Paul strengthen the churches in the faith and the churches increased. Pastor Dobbs teaches the importance of every member doing their part so that all will profit. Scripture: Psalm 46:1 - God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Acts 16:5 - So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.

No matter what you’ve faced… No matter what didn’t work out… No matter what tried to shake your faith… Nevertheless, God is Faithful. In this powerful and timely message, Minister Kendrick Scott reminds us that God’s character does not change based on our circumstances. Even when doors close, when prayers feel delayed, or when life takes unexpected turns — God remains consistent, trustworthy, and true to His Word. www.kingdomrock.org

Life can be scary and it's changing rapidly. Fear not! Our Heavenly Father has already arranged for your protection. www.prayerdrive.com

Pastor Jerome Baker of the MSW Refuge Center ministered for our Pastor's Aide night from Philippians 4:9 on the subject of "Do What You Learned". He taught us how to aide the pastor according to the scriptures and we can expect increase to take place in our life. Scripture: Philippians 4:9 - The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.
