Thank you for checking out my podcast. My prayer is that you will be encouraged by the podcast content here. Living against the flow of this world can be taxing and sometimes discouraging. But Jesus won, therefore He rules! Thanks again for stopping by my podcast. Please help me spread the word abou…
According to Paul in Ephesians 2: 10, we are created "in Christ" for good works...to walk in them. So the question is to challenge us to examine our salvation. Are we doing the good works we are created "in Christ" to do? I was challenged, and pray you will be too! Blessings to you!Check out my YouTube channel, and subscribe. Thank you!
I'm looking at Psalm 1: 1- 3. We look at what we don't do to walk in the blessings out line in by the Psalmist. Be encouraged! Be blessed!

Paul speaks to the church about how we should treat each other. May Jesus help us to love one another so the world can know without a doubt that we are followers of Him! I pray you are blessed and encouraged!Check out my YouTube channel, and subscribe. Thank you!
I love Jesus' words here, "Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." (Matthew 5:16) (Bold added.) Never forget, it is in the darkness that the power of Jesus makes the greatest impact!

We enter, by faith, this GRACE in which we stand when we meet Jesus according to the Apostle Paul. But grace is more than salvation, forgiveness of sins, being in right-standing in God's eyes, etc. Those are extremely important. But grace must be applied to our daily walk with Jesus, and in every area of our lives. In this teaching I talk about how grace is applied. All I can say is that God's grace is awesome, and as Jesus told the Apostle Paul, His grace is sufficient! Be encouraged!
In this episode I discuss the importance of being baptized in the Holy Spirit. We'll take a close look at Jesus, our example, as He too being born of God, needed the power of the Holy Spirit in order to begin and complete His earthly ministry. Be blessed, encouraged, and equipped!
Why did Jesus rise from the dead? No other so-called god, teacher, profit, or leader has ever risen from the dead by their own power. Only Jesus! Why? Here's a brief teaching explaining the significance of Jesus conquering the death He endured on the cross. Be blessed, informed, and encouraged! Thanks for listening!
There is only 1 way to salvation, redemption, forgiveness of sins, and heaven. Jesus Christ. In this series I share several verses and passages of Scripture that substantiate the truthful fact that Jesus is the ONLY way to heaven. But I take it further by answering the question "Why is Jesus the only way to heaven?" The answer to this question sets Jesus apart as the unique, only One of His kind. There is no other name...Jesus, ONLY Jesus!
This is part 1 of 2-part series entitled "A Living And Holy Sacrifice". In this episode I will talk about what the term "living" means. Under the Old Covenant, someone (animals) had to die as sacrifices. Why is that? That's one topic I will discuss.
In this second part of the teaching "A Living And Holy Sacrifice", I address the issue of holiness as followers of Jesus. Each and every believer has their own personal part to play in being holy. God, who is the epitome of holiness said, "Be holy, for I am holy." I will talk about the meaning of the world "holy".
There is a battle going on for your Worship. Are you consumed with Jesus? Or are you consumed with things that steal your passion for Him. Remember, what we value the most, is what we worship.
Paul tells us in Romans 6: 16 that whoever or whatever we present ourselves to for obedience, we become their slave! That's some tough stuff! In this teaching series I'll be covering Romans, Chapter 6. Paul explains in detail, how we are connected to Jesus' death and life, through salvation. Thanks!
Here is a series about UNITY. Can there be unity in the church? This is part 1. Yes. Is there unity in the church? Not exactly, but Paul shows us our responsibility to PRESERVE the Unity Of The Spirit.
This is the first session in the series "True Worshipers !" We're looking at the basic fundamentals of worshiping the Father (with the Holy Spirit's help) in Spirit and in Truth. True worshipers are simply "genuine" worshipers. It's time we bring true worship back as individuals, and corporately in our gatherings.
In the midst of a terrible tragedy, David (a man after God's own heart) strengthened himself in the Lord. In Ephesians 6:10, Paul says, "Be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might." My prayer is that you will be encouraged as I discuss how you can strengthen yourself in the Lord.
Jesus began His 3 and a half year ministry immediately after being Baptized in the Jordan River when, not only was He baptized in water, but He was baptized in the Holy Spirit as well. Jesus needed this baptism in the Holy Spirit and power, and so do we as His body in the earth. In this teaching I look at Jesus as our example in establishing the church, His body in the earth.
The point in this teaching series is to establish the significance of the Body Of Christ in the earth. The Body is the church. We will take a look at how God exalted Jesus for His obedience to Him in coming to the earth, and thus the cross. But God gave Jesus, after highly exalting Him, as HEAD over ALL THINGS to the church. What Jesus was, when He was on the earth, the church IS on the earth today. If you are born again, YOU are part of the Body of Jesus in the earth, destined for great exploits!
How Jesus came to the earth determines who and what He is. Born of God, not of man, Jesus was the perfect sacrifice Lamb, without spot or blemish! In this teaching I cover 4 crucial facts that qualify Jesus to be the only possible sacrifice for our sins. My prayer is that you will be blessed and encouraged. Thanks!
Jesus taught a lot using parables. Why? Certainly because parables help to relate spiritual meaning through describing natural situations. But there is a much deeper reason, and it's very powerful! Check out my teaching. Thanks!
Jesus said, "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it." (Bold added.) (Matthew 7: 13 - 14) He also said, "Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able." (Bold added.) (Luke 13: 24) In this teaching we will look closely at what Jesus meant when he referred to the wide gate, the narrow, gate, and the narrow door. I'll discuss exactly what these "entry points" mean for you and me. I pray you will be encouraged!
The Bible says the fear of man brings a snare, but he who trusts in the Lord will be exalted. (Proverbs 29: 25) This teaching addresses fearing man vs. trusting in God; being ensnared vs. being exalted by God. I feel this teaching will encourage anyone who is struggling with the fear of man. I'll discuss how to overcome the fear of man. Blessings to you and yours!
In part 2 of this short series I explain 4 distinct facts that substantiate the significance of the birth of Jesus. The way Jesus came to the earth determines who and what Jesus is. Because of who and what Jesus is, we can be free from the power and the consequences of sin, and we don't have to be controlled by the sin nature we are all born into. May you be encouraged and strengthened through this teaching!
Matthew Chapter 1 and verse 23 tells us, "BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," which translated means, "GOD WITH US." According to the prophecy, God would come from heaven to earth at some point in a very unconventional way. He would come through a virgin. How Jesus came to the earth determines just who and what He is. I cover this in detail in session 1.
We looked some time ago at the "Cost Of Following Jesus". In this episode I will continue to look at the "Benefits Of Following Jesus". Even though the cost of following Jesus is very high, the benefits of following Him are infinitely greater. This episode (Part 2) addresses the benefit of "having fellowship with Him", and "being cleansed by the blood of Jesus" as a result of following Jesus, the Light of the world. I pray you are extremely blessed and encouraged!
We looked some time ago at the "Cost Of Following Jesus". Now I will begin to look at the "Benefits Of Following Jesus". Even though the cost of following Jesus is very high, the benefits of following Him are infinitely greater. This episode addresses the benefit of "not walking in the darkness" as a result of following Jesus, the Light of the world. I pray you are extremely blessed and encouraged!
I take a brief look at the fact, and the truth that God is good. God's forgiveness and His abundant lovingkindness come from His goodness! And anyone who calls upon Him will experience His goodness, forgiveness, and His abundant lovingkindness. I pray that you are thoroughly encouraged by this short teaching! Blessings to you and yours!
It's interesting how the Apostle Paul refers to presenting our bodies as living and holy sacrifices as, "...our spiritual service of worship. When we yield ourselves to Jesus, even our bodies are considered part of our call to "spiritual worship". I pray you are encouraged by this teaching from Romans 12: 1 - 2). https://bit.ly/2mtZSxN
This is the second part of my teaching entitled "The Cost Of Following Jesus". Every person who prays the sinners prayer must understand the basic cost of following Jesus. Jesus' interaction with the Rich Young Ruler is an illustration of several crucial things I outline in this teaching. May you be informed, challenged, encouraged, and blessed!
Should the cost of following Jesus be understood by those praying the sinner's prayer? In these teachings I will cover not only the cost of following Jesus, but also the inheritance those receive who "sell out" to Him. We must understand that praying the sinner's prayer is only the entrance into a changed life, lived on the earth as a follower of Jesus. There is a vast cost that we must be aware of. Jesus made that clear many times in the Scripture.
In this teaching I look at the truth that you and I are "On A Mission". Jesus said to "Go". Just before He said that, He announced that ALL authority, in heaven and on earth, had been given to Him. The second He said "Go", He invoked His authority upon His church. I pray you will be encouraged and blessed by this teaching. Thanks so much!
America's only answer for the division and turmoil is revival. Revival must start with the church as only those saved and on fire can spread revival. Revival brings a genuine change of hearts, something legislation cannot accomplish. Revival is God moving from the inside out in God's people. Revival is the answer, but the question is: Will God's people see the critical need and respond? Please be encouraged by this informal teaching. Thanks! Steve Hutto
This is the second part of the teaching "What Is Your Life Song?" The question we should ask ourselves is "What song is our life singing?" David said in Psalm 40 that after bringing him up from the miry clay, known also as the pit of destruction, "He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; many will see and fear and will trust in the Lord." The result of the new song in David's mouth was that many would not just hear, but they would SEE the new song and fear God! That's my prayer for you and me! May our lives make a Godly impact on others to the point that they fear God and trust in Jesus to bring them up from the miry pit as well!
"What is your life song?" What song does your life sing? It is important what comes out of your mouth. But it is even more important what your life declares! This teaching is based from the 40th Psalm in which David declares that "He put a new song in my mouth." Be encouraged and strengthened to declare, with your whole life, the new song He has put in your mouth! Please share. Thanks!
Many people blame God for the bad things that happen, especially to good folks. Why? More than likely because He didn't stop or prevent it. But much of what happens, good and bad to all people, is based on the choices we make. We can trace this principle all the way back to the Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. In this teaching I also talk about the choices placed before Jesus in another garden - Gethsemane. I pray you are encouraged and blessed. Please share! Thanks!

This is the 2nd part of the teaching on The Presence and the Power of the Holy Spirit. In this teaching I take it a bit further concerning Jesus, our example, and moves into how you and I need the same Presence and Power Jesus had. If you're ready to be a world-changer, take a listen. Be ready to be endued with power from on high! Be ready to move out of the ordinary into the Extraordinary!
In this episode I discuss Jesus as our perfect example of being born of the Spirit, and endued with power from on high. If Jesus needed the "power" then certainly so do we. My prayer is that you will be encouraged to step into the powerful, supernatural, world-changing power of the Spirit of God. This is His plan for you!
It's easy to see from where America has fallen as a nation if you've lived a bit on the planet. And I believe the longer one lives we can see how far we've fallen as a nation. Because America was founded on Biblical principles I am convinced that we can return to our foundation, and God will restore our land, if we just will. That can only happen as revival brings us back. In this teaching we'll look at how God can restore fruitfulness to our land through His church. Be encouraged, and get ready!
In The Baptism in the Holy Spirit (Part 2) we look at how partnership with the Holy Spirit applies to you and me. Jesus Himself partnered with the Holy Spirit as He was filled with, empowered by, and led of the Holy Spirit. There is no better example than Jesus! If you desire more in your walk with Jesus; if you are restless in a mediocre walk with Him, listen to this teaching. Prepare to be energized by the same Holy Spirit that energized Jesus to perform signs, wonders, and miracles on the earth. If you are ready to be a world changer, listen on!
In part 1 of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, we take a look at Jesus and His partnership with the Holy Spirit, while He was on the earth. It's amazing what we can learn about our own partnership with the Holy Spirit from Jesus and His life. We are called by the supernatural God of the Universe to serve Him by supernatural means! Those supernatural means are by the enabling of the Holy Spirit - through Holy Spirit Baptism. John the Baptist said, "As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire." (Matthew 3:11) Are you ready for Jesus to baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire?
Is your life (as you live for Jesus) impacting the lives of other people? Is the fact that you are alive on this planet making a difference in the lives of others? This teaching takes a close look at how we as true followers of Jesus can touch the lives of other people. Be encouraged by the power of Jesus' Words about abiding in Him.
This is part 2 of the teaching "Growing Up In Christ". We look at the sower and the Word from Mark Chapter 4. Maturing in Jesus means, bearing fruit, glorifying God, and fulfilling one's purpose in Him.
If a fruit tree bears fruit, it is useful to its owner and thus, it fulfills its purpose. If it does not bear fruit, it is useless to its owner and thus, never fulfills its purpose...bearing fruit. It is the same for followers of Jesus Christ (Christians). If we don't bear fruit as Christians we are useless to the Master and thus, we don't fulfill our purpose. This doesn't mean we are rejected from His salvation. It does mean however, that we are not useful to Jesus. Bearing fruit for Jesus as a Christian means we are useful to Jesus, and we will be used by Him. The key to bearing fruit is growing up in Jesus. These messages show us the significance of growing to maturity in Jesus, and how it can be achieved. May you be blessed and encouraged to grow up in Him!
The way Jesus came to the earth sets Him apart as the ONLY way to God and to heaven. Many people claim there are other ways to the Father. But only ONE was born of God from the womb. I pray you are blessed by this teaching.
America must return to greatness for one reason...to continue to take the Gospel of Jesus to the planet. I want to encourage you to seek Jesus first, and allow those things that divide us as the body of Christ to slip to much lesser priorities. We must have unity in the God's church to impact the world. It will only come as we pray and seek Him!
A believer whose mind is on the things above is a believer through which God does great and mighty exploits. Be encouraged to NOT focus on things on the earth, born of the earth, but on the things of God.
Grace is God's part. Faith is our part. God did the work. We simply receive the work of the cross of Jesus into our hearts. God worked, we trust. It's that simple! This teaching keys on several attributes of the grace of God. You will also be encouraged to simply believe, not work for your position before God. Be encouraged!
In this session I look at two very different examples of doing life: Mary and Martha. One of them was too stressed to rest, while the other had discovered rest for her soul. I pray that you will be encouraged to take the necessary action Jesus prescribes to rest in every situation, in God's rest!
It seems that in these last days the darkness is growing stronger and stronger. But the Bible says that "Where sin increases, grace abounds even more." Or, you could say, the darker the night, the brighter the light! This teaching encourages believers to stand for Jesus in these last days. Never before has there been a greater need for the Body of Christ to rise up and stand on the principles of God's Word. Be encouraged by this teaching! And share if possible. Thanks!
Humility is all about others, not self. This was the attitude of Jesus, who emptied Himself in order to accomplish the salvation He provided on the cross, for all of mankind. We are told to "Have this attitude" in ourselves. This is what causes true impact on the lives of others. This is truly "living" the Gospel. I pray you are blessed and encouraged by this teaching. Please share and help spread the Word!
There is more to praying the sinner's prayer than going to heaven and not going to hell. Jesus has incredible plans for you as you walk out your life with Him on this earth. I pray you are encouraged by this teaching. And may you grow closer to Jesus, stronger in His love, and more powerful in your walk with Him!
