Podcasts about Assemblies of God

We live for God's Forever Glory story. Our lives are part of His greater story. But many in our culture have “walked off the page,” trying to write their own story apart from Him. Pastor Rob reminds us that without God at the center, we lose our sense of purpose, meaning, identity and hope. Now more than ever, people are open and we're called to invite them back into the story they were always meant to live.

Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge Choir came to sing songs of praise and worship and share powerful testimonies of what God is doing in their lives.

Sunday, June 15, 2025 – We continue our study of the 16 Fundamental Truths of the Assemblies of God by reviewing the 7th truth and studying the 8th truth. The 7th truth is that we believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the 8th truth is that the initial evidence of receiving this Baptism is speaking in tongues. It’s important to note that our belief in the active Gifts of the Holy Spirit is available to all believers, not just a select few. Even though speaking in tongues is noted as the initial physical evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, it is much more than just that in a person’s life. We find that Paul spoke in tongues more than anyone else, and he encouraged everyone to develop that special prayer and worship language. One might ask, why are tongues necessary? That’s a legitimate question, and we aim to address it in today’s message. Worship and study with us as we seek to learn more about the gift of the Holy Spirit.

As a church, its important to us that we support mission work around the world. Wycliffe Bible Translators are one of the organisations we support.

Acts chapter 2 gives the account of the Holy Spirits arrival and how it transformed the first century church.

We wrapped up our Defense Against the Dark series on Pentecost Sunday with a powerful reminder from Pastor Rob: Spiritual warfare is real, but so is the power we've been given. Through the baptism in the Holy Spirit, we are equipped to stand firm and walk in victory. The gifts of the Spirit aren't just for then, they're for now.

Pastor Rob exposes the rise and danger of spiritual counterfeits that imitate God's truth but open doors to deception and demonic influence. It calls believers to reject these practices, embrace full surrender to Jesus, and walk in the authority and freedom found in Him alone.

In this study Dave looks into what the bible teaches about bitterness.

Pastor Connor emphasizes that believers don't have to stay bound by darkness because Jesus has the power to set them free. It teaches that while spiritual warfare is inevitable for those advancing God's Kingdom, God provides both offensive and defensive tools—like truth, prayer, and the armor of God—for victory.

Sunday, May 25, 2025 – Today, we delve into Fundamental 6 of the AG 16 Fundamental Truths we uphold, which is “The Ordinances of the Church: Water Baptism and Holy Communion.” Both ordinances should take place after an individual experiences Salvation through faith in Christ, along with repentance and forgiveness, as discussed last week in the 5th Fundamental Truth – The Salvation of Man. These practices are direct commands from Christ, and by observing them, we obediently follow in His footsteps. They serve as public affirmations of our faith in the grace and mercy of Jesus, celebrating our relationship with Him. Water Baptism mirrors Jesus' death and resurrection; we are immersed in water and then raised up, symbolizing our death to self and new life in Christ. Our sins are washed away as the water flows off us, making us new creations in Him, free from condemnation. Holy Communion involves eating and drinking the body and blood of Jesus, as He guided His disciples during the Last Supper. As we partake of the bread or cracker and drink the juice, we reflect on Jesus' sacrifice on the cross and eagerly anticipate Him serving us at the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, which will take place very soon. Come join us in worship and study.

Pastor Kirk kicked off our new sermon series, Defense Against the Dark, with a powerful reminder: spiritual warfare isn't fantasy, it's fact. He unpacked the unseen reality of angels and demons at work and challenged us to be alert, not afraid.As followers of Jesus, we are called to live in the light, not fear the dark. Armed with truth, righteousness, faith and the Word of God, we are equipped to stand firm against the enemy's schemes.

Sunday, May 18, 2025 – We are continuing our study of the Assemblies of God 16 Fundamental Truths by focusing on the 5th Fundamental – The Salvation of Man. The reason we are going back to the basics of our faith is that it’s vital to have a solid foundation as one builds their life, especially in these end times full of deceptive and false teachings. Knowing and being sure of one’s faith affords peace and security when it’s difficult to find elsewhere in the world we live in. Truth sets one free, yet sometimes it brings a hard message and challenges the way we live. The Salvation that we are offered comes simply, but it’s a process to which we must commit. Until a person realizes they need to be saved, there’s no salvation – sometimes that’s a hard fact for one to accept. When one does see it, then it’s the Grace of God alone that brings salvation. The purpose of today’s message is to present the process of Salvation. It’s a three-step process, beginning with Repentance/Forgiveness, Redemption, and finally Restoration. Worship and study with us…

Pastor Rob's Mother's Day message celebrates the Proverbs 31 woman as a picture of godly wisdom, emphasizing her worth, walk, and witness as rooted in faithfulness rather than perfection. It challenges cultural confusion around womanhood by honoring both stay-at-home and working mothers, showing that true value is found in a life aligned with God.

Pastor Rob teaches on the value of a father by highlighting the powerful legacy of a father who fears the Lord, drawing from Psalm 112 to show how godliness impacts generations. It calls men to embrace their role as spiritual leaders whose lives reflect God's righteousness in both word and action.

Sunday, April 27, 2025 – Today, we are beginning a short series discussing the Fellowship of the Assemblies of God. This will be more of a teaching series than a preaching series, just so you are aware if you are interested in watching. I begin today by giving a short overview of the Assemblies of God’s national, international, and local organization. The reason is that it’s important for those who choose to call this their home church to understand whom they are worshipping under and submitting to. We are very transparent and open to any questions you may have regarding who we are and what we believe. After this, I will begin a study on the 16 Fundamental Truths or Tenets of our Faith. It’s essential for us to have a solid foundation of our faith, beginning with a sincere and unwavering belief as we discuss the first three tenets: The Bible is the inspired Word of God, secondly, The One True God, and then finally, for today, The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. You are strongly encouraged to worship and study along with us online or come be with us on Sundays at 10:30.

This Easter sermon celebrates the resurrection of Jesus as the centerpiece of our faith, proving that sin's debt is paid, new life is available, and resurrection power now lives in us. It reminds us that the empty tomb is not just something we admire—it's the foundation we live from every day.

Pastor Rob closes our "Shaped by the Cross" series challenging us to follow Jesus' path of self-denial, surrender, suffering, and ultimate sacrifice as a daily act of love and worship. True sacrifice isn't about ritual or convenience—it's about laying down everything for God's glory and drawing closer to Him.

Pastor Terry's sermon on suffering emphasizes that pain is not pointless but a tool God uses to shape us and reveal His glory. By looking to Jesus' own suffering, we learn to endure with hope, trust in God's sovereignty, and support others in their trials.

We're starting a new series answering listener questions. Special thanks to those who submitted questions. In today's episode, we talk about how we became Assemblies of God credential holders and what keeps us in the AG. We'll discuss some of the strengths of our movement and the challenges we face moving forward. 

In week two of our series "Shaped by the Cross", Pastor Rob emphasizes that true spiritual freedom begins when we let go of control and fully trust God. It highlights Jesus' ultimate act of surrender on the cross and challenges us to actively yield every part of our lives to Him.

“Do Not Forget the Lord- Part 2” – “Our Nation Needs to Be Under God!” – Psalms 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance. * To do great things, the Spirit of the Lord needs to come upon us. * If we want to do things, we need his power. - Samuel's Farewell Address * 1 Samuel 12:14-15 If you fear the LORD and serve and obey him and do not rebel against his commands, and if both you and the king who reigns over you follow the LORD your God--good! But if you do not obey the LORD, and if you rebel against his commands, his hand will be against you, as it was against your fathers. - When Israel served the Lord and followed the word of God they became stronger. * 1 Samuel 12:24 But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you

Pastor Rob emphasizes that while sickness and disease are widespread, true healing is found in Jesus, the ultimate healer. He challenges us to actively seek God with faith, recognize His power, and boldly pray for miracles, trusting in God's will for healing.

“Do Not Forget the Lord” – “Promised Land was on the West side of the Johan.” – 1 Samuel 11:1-15 – Saul defeats the Ammonites * The 2 tribes were separated geographically. * Don't make treaties with the enemy. * Don't join in with those who do not have the same biblical view as you. * God wants us to be together. - 1 Samuel 11:6 When Saul heard their words, the Spirit of God came upon him in power, and he burned with anger. - Confirm Your Calling and Election * 2 Peter 1:3 His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. * Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.
