When Jesus gets up on the cross, He gets up on His throne. Jesus is King because He did what no one else can do. No one else can say they've never sinned. No one else has perfectly kept the law. No one else has completed a greater act of love than the cross. Christ's cross marked a turning point in history. It changed the world. But have you allowed it to change your life? When you begin to grasp that Jesus went through all of this suffering because He loves you, it will change your life. “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” -Romans 5:8 Take-Home Message: King Jesus was crucified to free me from condemnation.

Send us a textWelcome to The Bible Project Daily Podcast. Today, we reach the final chapter of Judges—a disturbing yet powerful conclusion that forces us to ask: How do we know what's truly right? The Israelites believed they were doing the right thing, but ended up compounding injustice with more and more sin. In this episode, we reflect on the dangers of relying on our own judgment, and the call to seek what pleases the Lord. Because when we do what is right in our own eyes, we often miss what's right in His.

Judges 7 is a story of triumph. Gideon and 300 men received victory because their God guaranteed it against all odds. Join us as Pastor Landon and Pastor Cason declare the victory we have in King Jesus and what it looks like to live this out in our daily lives.
Those who have chosen to follow the King and who desire his will and ways to be realized have now been "called out" from this world. We remain in the world, but we're no longer "of" the world – we belong to God's kingdom and are under the rule of our marvelous, self-sacrificing King Jesus. the name of this group of people is the Church (from the Greek word meaning "called out ones"). What is our mission? Where do we receive our power to accomplish it? Where do we practice this mission?

In Psalm 2, we're invited into the Throne Room of heaven, a Situation Room unlike any other. We listen in as God responds to a world in rebellion. Whether ancient or modern rulers, pride rages and plots against God's authority.We hear the noise of proud human defiance and then the calm, unshaken voice of God. He has set His King in place. His Messiah is Anointed. His Son is given the nations as His heritage. All who bow the knee to King Jesus, our Rescuer, and God's beloved Son will find refuge.Psalm 2 exposes human rebellion, whether dramatic or “suburban” and calls for full surrender—not just for kings and rulers, but for each of us. The psalm ends where Psalm 1 began: with blessing. Only this time, for all who take refuge in Him.Key Themes:· The World's Rebellion: Nations and rulers resist God's authority and reject His rule. (Psalm 2:1–3)· God's Response: He laughs at human pride and declares His King—Jesus—on Zion's throne. (Psalm 2:4–6)· The Son's Identity: Messiah, King, and the eternally begotten Son who reigns over all. (Psalm 2:7–9)· The Warning and the Invitation: Serve with fear, rejoice with trembling, and take refuge in the Son. (Psalm 2:10–12)Key Texts:· Psalm 2· Acts 4:25–27· Luke 1:30–33· 2 Samuel 7:16· Revelation 2:26–27 Support our mission:Your generosity helps us proclaim Christ as King and equip disciples to make disciples. alloflife.churchcenter.com/givingVisit our website:www.alloflife.church
Many struggle with the Bible not because it's irrelevant, but because we've never been given the full story. My guest today, Zach Windahl, went from confusion and disillusionment to falling in love with Scripture and now he's helping others do the same. In this conversation, we trace Zach's journey of rediscovery, unpack the sweeping narrative of the Bible, and explore how reclaiming the story of God roots us in a better way to live. We talk about why understanding context matters, how the Bible invites us into a kingdom worldview, and what it means to live under the reign of King Jesus in the everyday. Zach doesn't just teach the Bible, he's passionate about helping people actually see it, engage with it, and let it shape their lives. So join us as we lay at a roadmap to the beauty and power of the story of the Bible. Zach Windahl is an author and content creator focused on helping his audience grow in their faith. He is the founder and former CEO of The Brand Sunday, a company that creates tools and resources to hold your hand as you read through the Bible for yourself. Marrying his passion for entrepreneurship and making faith simple and attainable has landed Zach in a unique place in the Christian landscape, where he reaches hundreds of thousands of followers on social media every day. He wrote his latest book, “The Bible, Simplified” (coming July 1, 2025), to help others be less overwhelmed by the Bible and more confident in their faith.Zach's Book:The Bible, SimplifiedZach's Recommendations:Simply JesusSimply ChristianSurprised by HopeSubscribe to Our Substack: Shifting CultureConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

In this sermon, Pastor Keith examines Joab's scheme, Absalom's return, and David's hesitant kiss, exposing the tragic results of manipulated mercy, sentimentalism, and unresolved sin. Through a fake parable, a forced return, false beauty, and a feeble kiss, we see that every shortcut to peace—without repentance and justice—only results in greater division. Pastor Keith urges us to seek true restoration not in human schemes, but in the righteous and gracious King Jesus, who alone brings peace with God and men through the cross.
God hates pride.According to the biblical narrative, if you're looking for the answer for how to get yourself kicked out of heaven -- pride is place to start. The the birth of sin in the universe starts with pride. Pride is the blueprint of hell's rebellion.The culture that we live in today will use your pride and your selfish ambition to find yourself at the gates of hell. Our culture today loves to tell you that the way that you can get the most satisfaction and happiness out of this life is to make your life about you, to put you at the center.The greatest rival to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is me, myself, and I. Pride is the downfall of everything.In the sermon, catch a glimpse into what is happening beneath the surface of pride, and how to find freedom and redemption into looking at the greatness of King Jesus. 1 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.Philippians 2:1-11We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

The Willis Tower, formerly the Sears Tower in Chicago, can sway 3 feet in either direction. And astonishingly, if you're at the top of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the tallest building in the world, you could find yourself swaying up 6.6 feet! Why? Because the architects and engineers who designed them know that high winds and earthquakes will sway and shake these colossal structures. So, they designed them to be able to endure the unexpected. This week we begin a new series called Unshakeable where we're working verse-by-verse through the New Testament letter of Philippians. In it, the Apostle Paul teaches us how to live unshakable lives in King Jesus, lives that can endure whatever life throws at us with joy and peac...
A lot of Christians are surprised you tell them that what we call the beatitudes from the Sermon on the Mount listed in Matthew 5 were not written to the New Testament Church found in the body of Christ. Far from it, the Sermon on the Mount is Jesus telling the Jews about what life will be like in the Millennium when He returns as King to sit on the throne of David and rule over the whole Earth for a thousand years. But even though it was not written to us as doctrine, there is a boatload of doctrinal dynamite contained in these 9 beatitudes given by the Lord, and we would do well to rightly divide and understand them. "And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:1-3 (KJB)The Sermon on the Mount and the 9 beatitudes, or blessings, contained therein are actually the foundational pillars that comprise the 'Constitution of the Kingdom of Heaven' that Jesus will rule and reign over. The blessings mentioned in the Sermon on the Mount constitute what life will be like during that time period, it is a constitution of that kingdom as prophesied in the Old Testament. It is not doctrine for Church Age believers, but a wonderful promise of what is to come when King Jesus is ruling in perfect righteousness.

"Life and death is in the power of the tongue. There's no in-between; there's either life coming out of your mouth or death coming out of your mouth." --Dr. Edith Davis In "A Secret of How to Receive and Keep Your Divine Healing - Part 7," Dr. Edith Davis of "Into the Glory Zone" unpacks profound revelations about the believer's spiritual authority in the physical realm. She explains how the indwelling Trinity – God the Father, Christ Jesus, and the Holy Spirit – empowers new creations to manifest the full blessings of the fourth dimension, where God reigns. Dr. Davis powerfully asserts that "life and death is in the power of the tongue," urging listeners to speak life by aligning their words with God's Word rather than the world's system. She illustrates the stark contrast between worldly advice leading to destruction and Christ-centered living that yields glorious marriages, families, and prosperity, much like Joseph brought wealth to Egypt. The broadcast delves into practical steps for receiving and retaining divine healing, emphasizing that believers must speak directly to problems – commanding sickness, pain, and poverty to bow to the King Jesus within. Dr. Davis shares personal testimony of God's provision and calls believers to mature from "children" to "sons and daughters," actively exercising their spiritual dominion. She stresses the necessity of guarding one's heart with Christ's peace, the Lord's joy, and God's agape love, highlighting faith as the essential currency of heaven. Ultimately, the teaching underscores the transformative power of understanding one's identity as the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus and cultivating an intimate, Mary-like posture of surrender and soaking in God's presence. Listeners will be equipped to resist the devil by first submitting to God's Word, ensuring they can receive and keep their divine healing.

"For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain." This is the desire of a man who has been saved from sin and damnation by Jesus, and now lives only for Him. Paul's dilemma is not born of doubt, but of devotion. His heart is stretched between two holy desires: to serve Jesus on earth--or to see Jesus in Heaven. "For to me, to live is Christ" meant that Paul viewed Jesus as his absolute Lord and Master. His life was not his own. Whether preaching in synagogues, writing letters in prison, or suffering beatings and rejection--he counted it all as "fruitful labor" for his Savior. He did not crave ease, pleasure, or honor. So long as his heart beat, it would beat for the Lord Jesus. Yet "to die is gain." Not because Paul saw death as an escape from trouble, but because he saw death as the entrance to endless joy. Death for him was not the end of life--it was the beginning of glory. He does not speak of death with hesitation, but with longing. "To depart and be with Christ... which is better by far!" Not just better, but far better! His heart was not attached to this fleeting and disappointing world. Paul realized that on the day of his death, he would behold King Jesus in all of His beauty! Still, Paul says, "it is more necessary for you that I remain." This is the heart of a true shepherd of souls. Though he yearned for Heaven, he willingly delays his crown for the sake of God's flock. What an example of selfless devotion. Dear believer, are you living in Paul's dilemma? Does your heart long for Jesus above all, yet remain gladly willing to labor on for His name's sake? The Christian life is marked by a holy tension: a life fully yielded here, and a soul homesick for Hea

Series: PsalmsService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Ryan BoyerPs. 72: Prayers for the King (Jesus!)The heading of Ps. 72 says, “Of Solomon” in the ESV/NASU/NKJV. The NET Bible/KJV says “For Solomon.” If Ps. 72:20 is an original part of this prayer, then it may be one of David’s prayers for his son, Solomon, and what kind of King David hoped he would be.At any rate, the psalm is mostly a prayer for the king, whoever he may be. Since none of Israel’s kings every fulfilled this prayer perfectly, I’m going to jump ahead and apply it directly to Jesus even though it’s never quoted in the New Testament.…

Big Idea: No sacrifice is too great for … 1 Corinthians 9:1-14I. … the Gospel, 1 Corinthians 9:1-6Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? If I am not an apostle to others, at least I am to you, because you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord. My defense to those who examine me is this: Don't we have the right to eat and drink? Don't we have the right to be accompanied by a believing wife like the other apostles, the Lord's brothers, and Cephas? Or do only Barnabas and I have no right to refrain from working?II. … God's people,1 Corinthians 9:7-11Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat its fruit? Or who shepherds a flock and does not drink the milk from the flock? Am I saying this from a human perspective? Doesn't the law also say the same thing? For it is written in the law of Moses, Do not muzzle an ox while it treads out grain. Is God really concerned about oxen? Isn't he really saying it for our sake? Yes, this is written for our sake, because he who plows ought to plow in hope, and he who threshes should thresh in hope of sharing the crop. If we have sown spiritual things for you, is it too much if we reap material benefits from you?III. …, or the glory of King Jesus. 1 Corinthians 9:12-14If others have the right to receive benefits from you, don't we have an even greater right? Nevertheless, we have not exercised this right; instead, we endure all things so that we do not obstruct the gospel of Christ. Don't you know that those who conduct the temple services eat the food provided there, and those who serve at the altar share in the altar's offerings? Similarly, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should support themselves through the gospel.Next Steps: Believe: I offer my life to King Jesus for the first time today.Become: I will offer Jesus everything again tomorrow.Be Sent: I will sacrifice so that someone can start a relationship with Christ.Discussion Questions: What sacrifice did you make for King Jesus last week?Can you recall a time when you made a sacrifice for someone? How did it change your relationship?Are you in a loving relationship if one person refuses to sacrifice for another? Explain your answer.How do you balance your needs with the needs of those you love?How do you respond when your sacrifice goes unnoticed?What sacrifices will you make for King Jesus this week?Ask the Holy Spirit to help you surrender it all to Jesus again this week.

You kill pride in your life by beholding the humble King: Jesus. Humility keeps our minds and hearts open to and fixed on him.
27 For “God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him. 28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all. The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles, 2016), 1 Co 15:27–28.In this sermon, we explore 1 Corinthians 15:27–28, where Paul unveils Jesus as the ultimate King, fulfilling Adam's role as God's image-bearer with all creation under His authority. Discover how Jesus, the second Adam, triumphs where humanity fell short, reigning now and destined to fully subdue all enemies, including death. Learn how, at the end, Jesus will present a restored world to the Father, establishing God's eternal rule. This message challenges us to live for King Jesus, as the church proclaims His gospel, anticipating the day when God will be all in all.

“This week is very special. We've crossed halfway into the Hebrew month of Sivan, and God is saying something profound: ‘I am preparing a place for you.'”“Sivan is about identity. It's the month when the Israelites came to Mount Sinai and received their covenant — their purpose, their calling, and their God-given identity.”“We live in a time where identity is under attack. Just look around — the enemy is screaming. Why? Because whenever God moves in identity, the enemy panics.”“You've probably heard about ‘No King but Jesus Day' — come on, I'm all for that! While the culture wages war over identity, the Kingdom is calling you to rise up as a royal priesthood and holy nation.”“If you don't know who you are, the enemy will try to tell you who you're not.”“And that's dangerous — because if you walk into the promises of God without knowing your identity, you'll squander them. You'll use them for yourself instead of the Kingdom. God is saying: ‘Before I give you the land, I must give you identity.'”“Let's go to Exodus 23:20 — one of the most powerful promises.”“Behold, I send an Angel before you to guard you on the way and bring you to the place I have prepared.”“Did you catch that? God sends an angel before you. You're not walking blind. Heaven has gone ahead of you.”“This week, new angels are being assigned. New levels. New doors. But they're only accessible if you walk in your Kingdom identity.”“If you read through Exodus 23:20–33, you'll see seven covenant blessings that come when we obey.”God keeps His promises“This isn't just a promise for ancient Israel — this is for you, right now, in 2025.”“But here's the key: you must come into alignment.”“God is preparing a place — a land flowing with milk and honey — but you've got to know who you are before you step into it.”“If you've been confused… lost… or maybe you've walked away from God — today is the day to renew your identity.”“Say this out loud: ‘Jesus, I receive who You are. I receive who You say I am. I walk away from false identity, and I step into my royal inheritance. No King but Jesus. Amen.'”“Come on, somebody! If that word hit you, hit like, hit subscribe, and share this with someone who needs to hear it.”“Let the world know: we serve King Jesus. This is the season of rising, of clarity, and of walking into the place God has prepared for you.”“Remember: You are chosen. You are royal. And you are right on time.

Big Idea: Law will always push out love… if you let it.1 Corinthians 8:1-13I. Wisdom without love only hurts people.1 Corinthians 8:1-3Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “we all have knowledge.” Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. If anyone thinks he knows anything, he does not yet know it as he ought to know it. But if anyone loves God, he is known by him.II. There's no greater sacrifice than the one that set you free. 1 Corinthians 8:4-6About eating food sacrificed to idols, then, we know that “an idol is nothing in the world,” and that “there is no God but one.” For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”—yet for us there is one God, the Father. All things are from him, and we exist for him. And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ. All things are through him, and we exist through him.III. Let love set the limits of your liberty! 1 Corinthians 8:7-13However, not everyone has this knowledge. Some have been so used to idolatry up until now that when they eat food sacrificed to an idol, their conscience, being weak, is defiled. Food will not bring us close to God. We are not worse off if we don't eat, and we are not better if we do eat. But be careful that this right of yours in no way becomes a stumbling block to the weak. For if someone sees you, the one who has knowledge, dining in an idol's temple, won't his weak conscience be encouraged to eat food offered to idols? So the weak person, the brother or sister for whom Christ died, is ruined by your knowledge. Now when you sin like this against brothers and sisters and wound their weak conscience, you are sinning against Christ. Therefore, if food causes my brother or sister to fall, I will never again eat meat, so that I won't cause my brother or sister to fall.Next Steps: Believe: I surrender my life to King Jesus today.Become: I will build up someone's faith this week.Be Sent: I will serve someone far from Jesus this week.Discussion Questions: What does it look like in your life to give up your freedom to serve someone?Has there been a time when serving others brought you joy?Besides Jesus, who do you know who sacrifices to serve others?What fear holds most people back from serving others?How has your faith influenced your view of freedom?What is one thing you will do this week to serve someone far from Jesus this week?Surrender your freedom to the Holy Spirit this week.
Through a study of the book of Acts, we're asking the Spirit to conform us to the patterns and practices of the early church — a people who love the lost like Jesus, give of themselves in rhythms of blessing and hospitality, and who seek to engage in curious, spiritual, and gospel conversations. We want the Spirit to do an Acts 3-4 kind of work this week, fulfilling Jesus's promise in Acts 1.8: You will receive power, and you will be my witnesses. What is our role? This week, after the church is scattered, King Jesus is still orchestrating the story, and we get to see how the new Spirit-filled people of God take the Gospel to the ends of the known world.
This psalm puts the Lord's victorious reign before us. Here is a mighty song of praise that reminds the people of God that the LORD is King and that no one and nothing will defeat the Lord our God. There is also a messianic element to this psalm that points us to King Jesus, who conquered death and rules over all. May the truths of this psalm lead all who trust in Christ to rejoice and praise the God who reigns.
Dive into Week 2 of our "Keep Church Weird" series as we explore the profound and sometimes bizarre practice of baptism. This message unpacks why baptism was a radical act for early followers of Jesus—more than just a ceremony, it was a public declaration of a new identity, a commitment to a new community, and even a dangerous statement of allegiance to King Jesus over all other powers. Discover how this ancient ritual reenacts the gospel story of dying with Christ and being raised to new life, challenging us to consider our own declaration of faith.
Today in Current Events from a Christian Perspective:We take a look from a Biblical perspective at illegal immigration since there are thousands of protests scheduled today across America and prominent Christians are saying things or even quoting Scripture that is plainly out of context or cherry picked to their advantage.The rioters are claiming that there should be 'No Kings' in America.
