In this compelling message, Pastor Jasmine Weiler explores what it truly means to forgive, drawing from Exodus 15 and Matthew 6. She unpacks four lies that keep believers trapped in unforgiveness, revealing that forgiveness does not require an apology, is not a one-time event, does not mean returning to intimate relationship, and does not mean excusing the offense. Pastor Jasmine challenges believers to stop letting these lies keep them from one of the most powerful acts of obedience they can walk in. Pastor Jasmine warns that delayed forgiveness leads to bitterness, and that the enemy is perfectly fine with small offenses building up because he is after a root of bitterness that will poison your fellowship with God, interrupt your spiritual growth, and steal your destiny. She calls the church to remember the six billion they have been forgiven before holding someone else to their two thousand. This message challenges believers to understand that only the cross can make bitter waters pure again. Just as Moses threw the tree into the bitter waters of Marah and they became sweet, applying the finished work of Calvary to the bitter places in your heart is the only thing that will give you the grace to truly forgive and walk into the oasis God has waiting for you. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God.

Can you be good enough for heaven? In this message from Mark 10, we explore why God alone defines what's truly good and why the gospel means you don't have to earn what Jesus freely gives.Connect with us: @ascentchurchvaConnect with our Lead Pastor: @pastor.tlaneIf you've just made a decision for Christ, we'd love to celebrate with you.

In this compelling message, Pastor Sean Gleason explores what it truly means to pray for deliverance, drawing from Luke 22 and Matthew 6. He unpacks the truth that deliverance is not a one-time event, it is a daily prayer, because just as Jesus gave us a model for daily prayer that includes "deliver us from evil," we must daily partner with God against the schemes of the enemy. Pastor Sean challenges believers to stop making prayer their last resort and to make it their first priority. Pastor Sean warns that there is no neutral ground between good and evil, and that Christians can unknowingly partner with the enemy through gossip, slander, unforgiveness, control, and manipulation, forms of what he calls Christian witchcraft. He calls the church to repent from any partnership with the enemy and to return to the most powerful weapon available, simple, sincere, daily prayer. This message challenges believers to understand that the disciples fell asleep in prayer not out of rebellion but out of sorrow, and that many people today do the same, spiritually falling asleep when the weight of life becomes too heavy. The answer is not to sleep, it is to rise and pray, because when you pray, God can and will deliver you from evil. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God.

Guest PreacherThe Rev'd Seb Cummings serves as the Lead Pastor at .Sermon NotesThe question: if the Kingdom has come, why does evil persist? It is John the Baptist's question from a prison cell (Matthew 11). It is ours, most days.The Kingdom is sought (a posture, not a project): It is the King ruling through his words and actions and it is here, in this world - inaugurated, and still coming. So the field is not the church. "The field is the world" (v. 38).Yes, a judgment is coming. No, it will not be now. How we live in the tension between the now and the then is of the utmost importance.1. Don't uproot — judgment is divine• The servants want to rip up the weeds. So do we. Every group in that crowd had a version of the same plan.• Discernment: yes. Naming evil and injustice: yes (Amos 5:24). The final verdict: not ours.• Our polarised age teaches us to sort each other. The Perception Gap research: those most certain they can tell wheat from weeds are the worst at it.• Volf: only from a comfortable distance can you afford a God who does not judge. We are released from the burden of retribution — handed to the One who will not miss.2. Don't withdraw — engage with the moment• The master's "no" refuses two things: the purge, and the retreat.• Ours is not an age of unbelief but of rampant belief (Smith; Gray). The field is full of people, and none of them are empty.• The question is not "do you believe?" but "can what you believe carry the full weight of your life?”3. Because the field is his and the harvest is coming• "An enemy has done this." The weeds were sown on top of the good seed. Evil is an intrusion, not a design feature - which is exactly why it can be taken out and the crop still stands. Otherwise there would be no harvest, only a bonfire.• The parable does not end with the furnace. It ends with the righteous shining like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father (v. 43). No explanation for the weeds — but a vision of justice, redemption, and life with him (Revelation 21).Discussion QuestionsOpening1. Before hearing Jesus' explanation, what did you assume the parable meant? Did the explanation surprise you anywhere?2. John the Baptist promised a fire that would come immediately (Matthew 3:12). By Matthew 11 he is in prison, asking whether Jesus is really the one. Where have you asked a version of John's question?Don't uproot3. "Shall we go and pull them up?" is the most natural religious instinct there is. Where do you see it in yourself? Try to be specific — a person, a group, a platform.4. The master's reason for waiting is that you would damage the wheat. Have you ever been damaged by someone else's certainty about who the weeds were? Have you ever done the damaging?5. The research says the people most confident they can spot the weeds are the worst at it. Where might that be true of you — and what would it change?6. "We are released from the burden of retribution." Is that a relief or a frustration? What does it look like, practically, to hand a verdict up rather than carry it?Don't withdraw7. Jesus says the field is the world, not the church. What changes if you take that literally?8. Where are you tempted to retreat — to keep your life among people who already agree with you? Name one relationship you would find it easier not to have. What would staying in it require this month?Because the field is his9. "An enemy has done this." Does it help to know that the weeds are not the sower's design? Where do you need to hear that?10. The parable gives no explanation for the weeds — only a promise about them. Is that enough? Be honest.11. Verse 43: the righteous will shine like the sun. Does that land as comfort, as pressure, or as nothing much? Why?12. Who would you find hardest to believe God is being patient with? Sit with that one before you answer.Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email Seb Cummings ().

In this compelling message, Pastor Sean Gleason explores what it truly means to bring supplication to God, drawing from Matthew 6 and Exodus 16. He unpacks how the Lord's Prayer moves from acknowledging who God is, to praying His will be done, to finally bringing our requests before Him as our daily bread. Pastor Sean challenges believers to stop questioning whether they deserve God's provision and to start asking like a beloved son or daughter, because a good father always wants to meet the needs of his children. Pastor Sean warns that the orphan spirit will convince you that you have to earn or perform for God's blessing, while the spirit of adoption produces the freedom to simply cry out, Abba Father. He calls the church to be careful not to trade one ditch for another, neither falling into a prosperity gospel that worships what God gives, nor a false humility that refuses to ask a good father for anything at all. This message challenges believers to recognize that their prayer life reveals what they are truly dependent on, because the goal of supplication has never been the answered prayer itself, it has always been getting to know the Provider behind every provision. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God.

What does it take to faithfully follow the call of God through every season of ministry?-----------For extended show notes - https://hacka.org/2026/07/16/229-ryan-neer-the-ministry-mindset-every-leader-needs/-----------In this episode, we are joined by Ryan Neer, Lead Pastor of Gateway Pentecostal Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Ryan shares his remarkable testimony—from addiction, brokenness and losing his father at a young age to becoming an evangelist and now pastor. But this conversation goes far beyond his story.We discuss why "mantles fall on moving targets," how to discern when God is saying "go" and when He's saying "stop," why a "no" from God may simply be an underdeveloped "now," and how God often develops His greatest leaders through seasons of weakness rather than strength.If you're pursuing God's calling, wrestling with unanswered prayers, or trying to understand the season you're in, this conversation will encourage, challenge and equip you to trust God's process.In this episode:- Ryan Neer's powerful testimony of salvation and transformation- Why mantles fall on moving targets- How to know when God is changing your season- Why God's "no" isn't always permanent- Receiving correction without becoming discouraged- Developing your gifting with humility- Understanding the fivefold ministry- Why God chooses weakness over self-confidence- Finding purpose in life's limitations- Letting patience prepare you for God's "suddenly"

In this bold conversation, Clary breaks down why the modern church has produced weak men, silent Christians, and a passive response to cultural threats, including Islam, progressivism, and woke ideology. He explains why “the meek shall inherit the earth” does not mean Christians are called to be doormats, how the Prodigal Son story has been used to shame faithful believers, and why the church must recover a vision of righteous strength, public courage, and high-agency Christianity. This episode will challenge what many Christians have been taught about weakness, power, masculinity, and the role of believers in the public square.TO WATCH ALL FLYOVER CONTENT: www.theflyoverapp.com Follow and Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFlyoverConservativesShow To Schedule A Time To Talk To Dr. Dr. Kirk Elliott Go To ▶ https://flyovergold.comOr Call 720-605-3900 ► Receive your FREE 52 Date Night Ideas Playbook to make date night more exciting, go to www.prosperousmarriage.comPastor Michael ClaryWEBSITE: https://www.losertheology.comSUBSTACK: https://www.dmichaelclary.comCHURCH: https://www.christthekingnky.comMichael Clary is the Lead Pastor of Christ the King Church in Fort Thomas, Kentucky, and the author of Loser Theology.

Caleb Campbell joins Bob and David to discuss some of the content in his book, Disarming Leviathan: Loving Your Christian Nationalist Neighbor (InterVarsity Press, 2024). Caleb believes that while it's possible to be both a Christian and hold Christian nationalist ideas, Christian nationalism itself is an unchristian worldview, rooted in the desire for power that is irreconcilable with the Christian faith.We recorded the first part of this interview on August 29, 2025. This was before the assassination of one of the leading voices of Christian American Nationalism, Charlie Kirk. In light of that devastating event, we thought we'd table the episode and then revisit with Caleb and get his thoughts. So the first part of this interview is from last year, and the second part is from this year.* Caleb shares his personal story of how people in his congregation became more strident about political issues and how he suffered relational fallout because of it.* What is Leviathan? And why does Caleb think that American Christian Nationalism is “Leviathan”?* Many feel that the actual Leviathan that has gripped the country is liberal progressivism. Is Caleb equally concerned about what's happening with the secularist Left?* Politics seems to always revolve around anxiety and rage. But Christians should know better. We follow Jesus, who constantly told us, “Do not be afraid.” How do we help people move away from being so anxious and angry?* How do we engage with people who have become even more strident in light of the awful assassination of Charlie Kirk?* How is AI imagery creating iconography that creates a heretical syncretism of Christianity and Americana?* In the book, Caleb offers a “Field Guide for Responding to American Christian Nationalists.” The loose structure of our conversations looks like this:1. Clarifying Questions2. Possible Shared Values3. Shibboleths (vs Red Flags)4. Good things to honor, and then5. “Humble Subversion” with the gospel of Jesus Christ.* We reflect on Galatians 6:1-2, “If anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.”Scroll down to learn more about Caleb Campbell.Thanks for listening!If you enjoyed this podcast, please share it with your friends!Your hosts are Dr. Bob Robinson and David Loughney.

Aaron Burke and Andrew Gard, Lead Pastor or Grace City Church, discuss what it means to become a durable leader by building healthy rhythms, staying committed to your calling, and resisting the urge to constantly seek the next opportunity.Stay connected with Aaron BurkeWebsite: https://aaronburke.com/

In this compelling message, Pastor Sean Gleason explores what it truly means to bring supplication to God, drawing from Matthew 6 and Exodus 16. He unpacks how the Lord's Prayer moves from acknowledging who God is, to praying His will be done, to finally bringing our requests before Him as our daily bread. Pastor Sean challenges believers to stop questioning whether they deserve God's provision and to start asking like a beloved son or daughter, because a good father always wants to meet the needs of his children. Pastor Sean warns that the orphan spirit will convince you that you have to earn or perform for God's blessing, while the spirit of adoption produces the freedom to simply cry out, Abba Father. He calls the church to be careful not to trade one ditch for another, neither falling into a prosperity gospel that worships what God gives, nor a false humility that refuses to ask a good father for anything at all. This message challenges believers to recognize that their prayer life reveals what they are truly dependent on, because the goal of supplication has never been the answered prayer itself, it has always been getting to know the Provider behind every provision. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God. Each week, you will hear a teaching from our Lead Pastors, Sean and Natalie Gleason or another leader in our community. To learn more about Mercy Culture, visit https://mercyculturewaco.com

Matt ShantzLead Pastor of Central Community Church in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada, and host of the Deep Thoughts podcast.When a preacher quotes someone from the pulpit, what are they actually endorsing? How do churches move beyond wishing for more Bible teachers to intentionally training them? And what kind of feedback has the power to reshape a preacher's ministry for decades? In this thoughtful and practical conversation, Mike Neglia sits down with Matt Shantz, Lead Pastor of Central Community Church in Chilliwack, British Columbia, and host of the Deep Thoughts podcast, to explore the questions that shape a lifetime of faithful preaching. Together they discuss the ethics of quoting voices outside our theological tradition, the sermon critique that pushed Matt toward greater gospel clarity, the surprising benefits of handwritten notes, and why preaching is often far more exhausting than most people realise. Matt also offers a behind-the-scenes look at how Central Community Church identifies, trains, coaches, and releases new Bible teachers through initiatives like their Preaching Lab, creating a culture where developing communicators is part of the church's DNA. Whether you're preparing this Sunday's sermon, mentoring emerging preachers, or simply trying to grow in the craft and calling of Bible teaching, this conversation is filled with wisdom, humility, and practical encouragement for the long work of ministry.Deep Thoughts Podcast: https://thedeepthoughtspodcast.wordpress.com/For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com Join our private Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExpositorsCollective
