The spiritual battle is real — but it's not what it seems. Behind every cultural divide, political argument and personal wound lies a deeper battle for our hearts and loyalties. Our enemy isn't flesh and blood; it's the deceiver who feeds fear, pride, and polarization until we start fighting the wrong battle for the wrong kingdom. But the Lamb has shown us a better way — a way of truth-telling, love and power under the cross. God is commissioning us to live as witnesses of that Kingdom — to wage peace, not by force or fear, but by the faithful way of the Lamb who has already overcome.

Demons, Satan, and the powers of darkness are real and at work. Do you know how to recognize and combat them? Chip begins "The Invisible War" with an overview of who the Enemy is and how they operate.GENERAL Command (Eph. 6:10) “Allow yourself to be continually strengthened by the power already made available to you in your new position and relationship with Christ.” It is the power that raised Christ from the dead and now dwells in you.SPECIFIC Command (Eph. 6:11) How? By continually and repeatedly putting on, at specific points in time, the spiritual protection God has provided for you... for the express purpose of holding on to your position in Christ as you are bombarded by Satanic strategies designed to destroy you and/or render you ineffective in Kingdom pursuits.The REASON for Commands (Eph. 6:12) It's because our real struggle is not against physical/material adversaries, but against a hierarchy of demonic forces doing battle in the spiritual realm.Five basic truths about spiritual warfare:There is an INVISIBLE world that is just as real as the visible world.We are involved in an invisible WAR, a cosmic conflict that has eternal implications.Our foe is FORMIDABLE and his goal is to destroy us and discredit the cause of Christ.We must RESPECT our foe, but not FEAR him – become acutely aware of his “methods,” but not be preoccupied by them.As believers in Christ, we do not fight “for” victory, we fight “FROM” victory.

What if the battle for your identity began before you could even understand what was happening? In this raw conversation, Tailah exposes how early rejection and seemingly harmless spiritual curiosity can open doors to something much darker. The story winds through second-heaven warfare, violent deliverance moments, and the slow, painful work of inner healing. When Tailah shares how witchcraft posed as self-discovery and how freedom came piece by piece, eerie coincidences begin to look more like a calculated plan. By the end, you'll be asking what unseen forces might still be shaping your own life. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

Every day, invisible powers are attempting to dress us — how we think, how we react, how we love, and what we fear. And often, without even noticing, we step into our day wearing their lies — clothed in worries, armored in self-protection and self-promotion. But there's another way to dress. God offers His armor—not for conquering people, but for standing firm in a world of shifting truths and manufactured fads. Dressing for the invisible war isn't just for protection; it's the daily practice of becoming who we really are in Christ.

Main point. You need to fight the real enemy. 1. There are gods (1) 2. They are the real enemies (2-5) 3. God will destroy them (6-8)

Are You Fighting the Right Enemy? Christians hear a dark, condemning thought and may think, “Wow… that must be me. I must be messed up.” But no—that thought didn't come from you. It came at you. There's a real enemy. He's already been disarmed, but he's still out there running his mouth—lying, accusing, distracting. He can't touch your security in Christ, so he goes after your mindset, trying to steal your peace and hijack your joy. The good news? You've got every reason to ignore that nonsense. This message will help you recognize the battle for what it is—and stop owning thoughts that were never yours in the first place. Click now to watch, and let truth overwhelm the noise! Discussion Questions: Read John 10:10. What does Jesus mean by “abundant life,” and how is it different from what the thief offers? Read 2 Corinthians 11:14. How does the enemy disguise himself as an “angel of light”? Can you think of examples in the world today? Read 2 Corinthians 10:3–5. What does it mean to take “every thought captive to the obedience of Christ”? Read Ephesians 6:10–11. What is the “armor of God,” and how do we put it on? Read Romans 8:37–39. How are conquering and God's love connected in this passage? Read Colossians 2:15. React to this: The enemy has already been disarmed through the cross. Read 1 John 4:4. How does it encourage you to know that “greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world”? Read Philippians 4:8–9. What role does setting your mind play in spiritual warfare?

There's a war happening, and it's invisible. But make no mistake, it's real. And it's personal. The Bible says the devil prowls like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. But you weren't made to be prey. You were made to stand.In this message, Pastor David dives deep into the schemes of the enemy—distraction, derailment, and destruction, and shows how believers can resist the devil and stand firm in faith.To learn more about Cross Points, check out our website:http://crosspointschurch.comTo stay up to date, check out our social media:Instagram: @crosspointskcFacebook: Cross Points ChurchYoutube: CrossPointsKCTwitter: @crosspointskc

There's a war going on, and it's not visible, but it's very real. In Part 3 of The Invisible War, Pastor David Jones dives deep into the enemy's strategy to distract your focus, derail your purpose, and destroy your calling.Using David's fall in 2 Samuel 11 and 12 as a powerful example, we see how one moment of boredom led to compromise, cover-up, and ultimately collapse. But it didn't end there. David's story is a reminder that confession is the way back to calling, and God's grace is greater than your greatest mistake.To learn more about Cross Points, check out our website:http://crosspointschurch.comTo stay up to date, check out our social media:Instagram: @crosspointskcFacebook: Cross Points ChurchYoutube: CrossPointsKCTwitter: @crosspointskc

147. A Repeat of Episode 43: Cashaye Barrera—An Episode Worth Hearing Again!   Sometimes life throws us a curve ball when we least expect it, and it changes the trajectory of the path we were on. That's what happened this week when a guest who was scheduled to record with me had some unexpected events thwart our scheduled appointment and we weren't able to record. So, I made the decision to do something I have yet to do on this podcast, and that is to repeat a past episode. It didn't take me anytime at all to decide which one: you are about to hear Episode 43 again: my adopted daughter, Cashaye Barrera. Cashaye's extreme courage and strength in telling her survivor story is evident and powerful, and I'm honored to be able to have you listen to this again. Please take the time to not only listen to this repeat episode, but also to re-read the notes I wrote for Episode 43: This week, I made a special request to my daughter, Cashaye Barrera, to be a guest with me on this show. I was pretty sure she would agree to do this…and she did. My confidence in her response was due in part to me knowing how passionate she is about getting justice for herself…in every legal, non-violent way possible. And because I know what a tenacious and strong personality she is when she's fighting for herself and for those she loves and cares for…like, her family. But mostly because she is passionate about helping others. Especially others that are suffering in ways she can relate to…like other victims and survivors of rape and sexual assault. Cashaye's sexual assault case wasn't taken seriously when it was reported to law enforcement. Even though she was able to present physical evidence that she was raped, the agency handling the case, along with the prosecutor's office, was much more interested in giving the benefit of the doubt to the suspect than to Cashaye; to believe his untruthful explanation for the existence of his semen on Cashaye's clothing, rather than her report of incestuous and forceful rape. This is, for the most part, across most of this country, sadly, standard operating procedure. Part of this standard, this common response among law enforcement and prosecutors, is the systemic disbelief of victims. And another huge component to the problem is blaming the victim. And while Cashaye is one of the fortunate ones that did not end up being arrested herself for false reporting, she was certainly not believed, and was told by law enforcement that she should listen to and obey the very person that raped her, and that person's wife  who knew the sexual assault was occurring, who were Cashaye's foster parents. Why is this process of disbelief, blaming, shaming, of victims, and the closure of rape and sexual assault cases without the perpetrators of these crimes being so much as confrontationally questioned about the report, let alone thoroughly investigated, so rampant, so systemic? Because…it's easier to not believe reports of sexual assault and rape than it is to believe these reports. It's easier because our human brains don't like to face the malevolence, the discomfort, the taboo, the ugliness, the messiness, the vulgarness…of rape. And because some men and women who investigate rape and sexual assault cases don't like the idea that what they do, sexually, in their own personal sex lives, could very well be construed as rape or sexual assault. It's easier to disbelieve victims; to blame victims; to shame victims, and to get them to recant their report. If you don't believe me, watch the independent film, Victim/Suspect, streaming on Netflix. Then read Cry Rape: The True Story of One Woman's Quest for Justice, by Bill Lueders. Then read Missoula: Rape and the Justice System in a College Town. And read Know My Name, by Chanel Miller Then read Dr. David Lisak's research on The Undetected Rapist. Then watch The Invisible War documentary about the prevalence of rape in the military by Kirby Dick, Amy Ziering, and Tanner King Barklow. Things need to change…big time. Be a part of that change: Start by Believing. An important side note: if you're finding value in these episodes, please take a moment to leave a 5-star rating on your podcast platform.

In Part 1 of a new series The Invisible War, guest speaker Bo Gerken from Living Proof Church challenges us to walk in extreme faith, the kind of faith that trusts God in our weakness and forgives others freely, even when it doesn't personally benefit us.To learn more about Cross Points, check out our website:http://crosspointschurch.comTo stay up to date, check out our social media:Instagram: @crosspointskcFacebook: Cross Points ChurchYoutube: CrossPointsKCTwitter: @crosspointskc

There's a battle raging, and it's not just around you, it's within you.

Drawing from the life of David, this message reveals how comfort and distraction can slowly lead to sin and shame. But it doesn't stop there, because our God is a God of restoration.To learn more about Cross Points, check out our website:http://crosspointschurch.comTo stay up to date, check out our social media:Instagram: @crosspointskcFacebook: Cross Points ChurchYoutube: CrossPointsKCTwitter: @crosspointskc
