In this powerful and deeply personal message, Pastor Gary Wilkerson steps out of his comfort zone to deliver a prophetic word of warning, challenge, and hope. Speaking from Matthew 21, Gary confronts the outward appearance of fruitfulness in today's church—leaves without life—and calls leaders, pastors, and believers to tear down the religious systems that hinder the true power and presence of God. This isn't about shame or condemnation. It's an invitation. A call to return to purity, power, and fruit that glorifies Jesus. It's a cry for the church in America to trade the leaves of performance for the real fruit of righteousness. "This thing will wither—all the smoke and mirrors, all the external things… but God will raise up a tree that bears great fruit." If you're tired of the show, if you long to see the mountain of fruitlessness removed—this message is for you. Gary doesn't preach from a platform of perfection but from a posture of humility, praying along with us: “Jesus, purify me. Take out anger, take out lust, take out selfish ambition. Take out anything that's keeping this tree from bearing fruit.” “He's not going to bless the leaves anymore—He's after the fruit.” God is not finished with His Church. He's doing a new thing. But it begins in us. Will you pray with us and ask Him to move the mountain?
What does it take to pass the torch without losing the fire? In this powerful multi-generational panel, six leaders—Carter Conlon, Gary Wilkerson, Evan Wilkerson, Alberto Bello, Ron Brown, and Jonathan Laurie—gather to answer the call that spans every era: to minister with courage, clarity, humility, and conviction. With a rich blend of wisdom and vulnerability, each panelist opens up about: • Recognizing God's call in their own lives • Communicating the Gospel in a biblically illiterate generation • Wrestling with loneliness and the cost of leadership • The urgency of discipleship and succession in ministry You'll hear stories of rebellion and redemption, the importance of vulnerability over image, and the sacred power of saying, “Yes, Lord—even when it costs.” “We don't own anything. We're stewards. The church belongs to Jesus.” “If we lose our awe and wonder, we start doing ministry in our own strength.” “It's not a baton you pass and lose—it's a torch that keeps burning.” This panel will inspire you to keep your heart soft, your hands open, and your fire burning. Whether you're new to ministry or decades in, this conversation will rekindle your call and reconnect you to the One who called you.
What if the impossible thing you've been avoiding… is the very thing God is calling you to do? In this powerful and deeply personal message, Gary Wilkerson invites you to find your impossible — to ask, to listen, to weep, and to act. Rooted in Nehemiah 1, Gary shares how real transformation begins not with vision boards or mission statements… but with a burden from God. This message is more than a sermon — it's a launching pad for those who are ready to trade comfort for calling, clarity for control, and ease for eternal impact. “As soon as I heard, I sat down and wept.” “God doesn't want to do a small thing — He wants to do a great thing through you.” “If you don't want to care about the impossible, don't ask.” You'll hear stories of street children in Burundi, widows in Ukraine, and a miraculous opportunity in Afghanistan. You'll be stirred to fast, pray, give, and go — and challenged to drop every lesser ambition for the one thing God is truly calling you to do. If you've ever wondered what your “impossible” looks like, this message may be the moment where “now it happened” becomes your testimony. Let God break your heart for what breaks His. Let Him give you one burden. And let that burden shape the rest of your life. —
“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain…” At Fire in Our Bones 2025, Gary Wilkerson stood and simply read Revelation chapters 1–5… and heaven came down. This wasn't a sermon. This wasn't performance. This was pure, Holy Spirit power released through the spoken Word of God. As Gary opened the book of Revelation, the atmosphere shifted. The room stood still — trembling under the weight of the glory of Jesus Christ, the Alpha and the Omega, the Lamb who was slain and now reigns forevermore. Experience the stunning scenes of: Jesus walking among the lampstands with eyes like fire The call to the seven churches The open door in heaven The throne of God, surrounded by lightning, thunder, and emerald rainbows The “Holy, Holy, Holy” of the living creatures The scroll no one could open... until the Lamb stepped forward And then—heaven erupts. Thousands upon thousands of angels Elders casting crowns Every creature in heaven and on earth lifting one voice: “To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb… be blessing and honor and glory and power forever and ever!” This moment became one of the most anointed and unforgettable moments of the entire conference. This is the best sermon I've ever preached in my life... and I didn't say a word of my own. – Gary Wilkerson —
