POPULARITY
When we practice hospitality like God directs us to, He can change the course of history. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can shape culture by opening our homes and being receptive to God's instruction. He shares from the history of the early Church and how apostles like Peter and Paul practiced hospitality in ways that furthered God's mission in the earth. Pastor Allen also relates the history of World Outreach, starting with his own family's willingness to open their home to gathering, and he tells stories from the life of Corrie ten Boom, whose family's hospitality saved over 800 lives during World War II. It's rarely convenient to share your kitchen table with the community, but by practicing hospitality, we join with God in extending His Kingdom.
It's not always popular to stand for the truth, but are we willing to be voices for the Jewish people and the nation of Israel anyway? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the heritage of faith we inherited from the Jewish people. God has not and will not reject them, and it's from them we receive our Messiah, Jesus. As World Outreach Church joins with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews to commemorate the October 7 attacks, Pastor Allen shares practical steps we can take to show support and mercy for Israel. God is shaking the earth, and we want to move with Him.
The same spirit that hates the Jewish people hates all of God's children—including us. It's an important time to use our voices for the people of Israel. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the events of October 7, 2023, alongside Colonel Keith Isaacson, the Director of Security for part of the attacked region in Southern Israel. Isaacson tells of his first-hand experience of the atrocities that took place, but he also shares hope for the rebuilding, restoration, and renewal of the communities in the area. Then, Pastor Allen teaches on God's relationship with the Jewish people. He has not abandoned nor replaced them, and we should continually pray that they recognize their Savior.
We don't have the power to transform the culture we live in, but we do have the power to be obedient to God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Satan's responses to God's movements. In the Old Testament book of 2 Chronicles, we read about King Hezekiah's obedience to the Lord, which brought about both a renewal of his culture and pushback, hardship, and threats from the enemy. However, as Pastor Allen shows, God is always faithful to intervene when we choose His ways. Like King Hezekiah, we will experience backlash when we live for Jesus—but if we will choose obedience to God in an unrelenting, courageous way, God will do what we can't: transform our culture.
To foster the best outcomes for our children and families, we need to shape culture, not be shaped by it. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the role families play in engaging the culture for God's Kingdom. He shares the biblical, God-given design for marriage, roles of spouses, and children. To give guidance on how to be a culture-changer, Pastor Allen also talks about King Hezekiah as a model for us. Deception is rampant in media, and it's hard to know what to trust, but we can start at our kitchen tables by encouraging our families to lean into God's Truth.
We are finite creatures serving an infinite God, so we must keep learning and growing. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the need for a spiritual understanding of God's movements in the earth. We heard from speakers including Pastor John Amanchukwu, Pastor Rob McCoy, Eric Metaxas, and others during the 2025 Culture & Christianity Conference, and Pastor Allen shares some takeaways from their messages. Holiness and courage must take precedence over our happiness and comfort, and we must renew and deepen our respect for the Lord. Christianity demands of us a willingness to sacrifice our lives—so will we say to the Lord, “I'll follow you”?
Culture shouldn't shape the Church—we should shape culture. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses some key lessons from the 2025 Culture & Christianity Conference. God is moving in the earth and in His people, and we want to be a part. That means having the courage to share the truth with those around us and bringing our faith into the public sphere. Pastor Allen shares the importance of honesty in moments like the ones we're living through now, as well as the reality that we will face opposition. Let's pray for God to give us the vision to recognize His work and assignments as we move forward with boldness for His Kingdom!

In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson addresses the loss of Charlie Kirk, a bold Christian, political activist, and the co-founder of Turning Point USA. Pastor Allen shares biblical advice on dealing with death and building an awareness of the Holy Spirit. We have been called to be overcomers, and like the apostles Peter and John in Acts, chapter 4, we can have the courage to fight these spiritual battles when we rely on the Holy Spirit for strength. Our Lord still does miracles, and He has the wisdom and authority to transform expressions of Satan's evil into glory for His everlasting Kingdom.

The culture is shifting, and the season has changed. It can be agitating and frightening, but it means something else, too: Jesus' return is drawing closer. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can be prepared for our Lord's return. The Bible tells us that deception and conflict, both physical and spiritual, will increase as the End of the Age approaches. Pastor Allen shows how we see this in our world today, then he shares God's instructions for standing firm. Living in the truth of God's Word and relying on His wisdom and peace will be essential. We've been asked to overcome a number of daunting things—our own carnal desires, evil, Satan's kingdom—but God hasn't left us alone. We can trust in the Lion of Judah.
Pastor Allen explores the concept of manifestation gifts as detailed in 1 Corinthians, emphasizing their role in bridging the spiritual and physical worlds.
Through Jesus, the Lion of Judah, we have been given authority over Satan and the kingdom of darkness. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson helps us understand our identity in God's Kingdom. We've been appointed as ambassadors; we're representatives with assignments to complete for the Lord. Pastor Allen shares what it means to be a “stranger in the world,” and he teaches the importance of standing firm against our sinful desires. God has invited us into His family as His children, and through His love, mercy, and power, we can overcome the enemy.
There are two lions stalking the earth with opposite objectives, but they don't have equal power. Jesus has won total, complete, eternal, irreversible victory over Satan and the kingdom of darkness. The Lion of Judah has triumphed! In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict raging in the earth and how we can stand firm against the enemy by staying close to the Lion of Judah. We are not powerless or called to be spectators in this fight. We are invited to join the triumphal procession God has planned. Pastor Allen explains that the key to resisting the enemy and spending time in the presence of the Lion of Judah is praise, worship, and yielding our whole person to Jesus Christ—our strength, our intellect, our resources, our calendar, and our priorities. When we worship, it reframes our perception of ourselves and God, strengthening us to stand immovable and triumphant in our faith—even when we're confronted with the roar of the lion.
In this sermon, Pastor Nick Allen addresses the controversial passage in 1 Corinthians 11 regarding head coverings in church. He explains that while Paul commends the Corinthians for following this tradition, the underlying principle is more important than the cultural practice itself. The sermon explores how the passage teaches about God-ordained roles in marriage, with the husband as the head of the wife, just as Christ is the head of the church. Pastor Allen emphasizes that these roles don't indicate inequality in worth or value, but rather reflect complementary functions designed by God to display the gospel. He concludes that while modern Western Christians aren't required to follow the specific cultural practice of head coverings, we should still honor the principles of gender distinction, modesty, and proper roles within marriage and the church.
It's easy to hold onto bitterness and resentment when we feel rejected, so why does God ask us to forgive? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses five steps we can take to heal from rejection: Recognize when we experience rejection, accept Jesus as the example, let go of our bitterness, receive and believe God's provision, and accept ourselves. Pastor Allen speaks about how emotions and spiritual forces try to influence us, but following God's design for relationships brings spiritual freedom. We don't have to be defined by our pain—God values us, and He has already made provision to accept us into His family.
Rejection and disappointment will wound us all, so how can we overcome the pain they bring? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the remedy for rejection found in Jesus. He shares the story of Joseph and his family, and how hurtful situations can affect people differently. Pastor Allen also shows how, no matter what circumstance we face, Jesus has provided the acceptance we seek. He teaches about the Divine Exchange, where Jesus traded his perfect holiness for our sins and hurts. Because of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, we have been promised joy, honor, and glory in the midst of shame and rejection—and we can live in the freedom that provides.
We can't eliminate rejection from our lives, but it doesn't have the power to keep us from God's best. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses rejection, its causes, and God's acceptance. Leaders like David, Moses, and our Lord Jesus all faced immense rejection in their lifetimes, and Pastor Allen speaks about how God helped each of them overcome. He also shares a few common causes of rejection: broken families, betrayal, and shame. While each of us will be touched by rejection in our lives, we don't have to live in its bondage. We can find freedom through our acceptance into God's Kingdom and His family.

Our thoughts impact our words, and our words can define our reality. How can we ensure our reality reflects growing spiritually in the Lord?

We're not just watching history—we're living in the middle of God's unfolding purposes. In this message, Pastor Allen Jackson calls us to wake up, speak up, and stand with bold faith. As he refers to Scripture from throughout the Bible, Pastor Allen teaches if you reject the Truth and you follow evil, you will face a God of wrath and anger. That's not a threat; it's awareness (Romans 2:8). As the nations rage and Israel takes center stage, we must understand our role as God's people in this unique moment. It's time to embrace responsibility, reject passivity, and align with God's eternal promises. He's moving—let's not miss it.
Pastor Allen was a preacher in Small Town, U.S.A. Relaxing at home one evening he settled into his recliner, pushed his reading glasses up to the bridge of his nose, and reached over to his side-table for something to take his mind off of work. He could have picked up one of the magazines lying there, or a novel with a bookmark where he left off, or if all else failed the TV remote. He accidently grabbed his Bible.Normally, when worn out in the evening, all he wanted was a distraction; anything that didn't require exertion. The Bible, however, was “work.” He was never able to read it in a light-hearted way or for entertainment. The Bible required a serious attitude. One needed to come to it with reverence, humility, and focused attention.His inner voice told him, “Read this.” So he chose to glance at a couple verses and move on. Without looking for any particular place to begin, he let his Bible fall open wherever it would, only being careful not to land in the Old Testament. Looking down he found himself in the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 8. Skipping to the red letters, he began to read and heard Jesus saying, “I tell you, many will come from east and west and recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Pastor Allen delves into the intricate relationship between faith and works, addressing the perceived contradiction between the teachings of James and Paul. By exploring the different contexts each apostle was addressing, Pastor Allen clarifies how both teachings complement rather than oppose each other.
