The American family can find restoration when we establish God as the authority in our homes once more. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the connection between the Jewish holiday of Passover, Jesus' final supper with His disciples, and our practice of communion—and how all of these, centered around sharing a table, invite God to move in our midst. When we gather around the kitchen table, we have the opportunity to establish who or what has spiritual authority over our homes. Will we let the culture drive our habits and traditions, or will we surrender to God's will? Pastor Allen shares how under the Lord's authority, we find protection, salvation, and deliverance. We've been waiting for the world to change, but God has already given us everything we need to make a difference, starting at our kitchen tables.

It's easy to get worked up about denominational differences, religious traditions, or government parties, but when we focus instead on submitting to God's fundamental truths in our homes, His expressions of power become evident. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses obedience at our kitchen tables. He shares the story of the Exodus generation and the first Passover meal, where the Hebrew slaves found deliverance through obedience and a family meal. God's presence made all the difference for those families that day, and we too can invite God into our lives when we gather to share a meal with loved ones. How we use our kitchen tables begins to determine the spiritual authority over our homes, so let's decide to give God that place.

Obedience to God takes daily, intentional effort. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses recognizing the spiritual authority over our homes and how we can show obedience to God through hospitality. As we can see from the ministry of Apostle Peter, it's not always easy to yield to God, but following His guidance for our lives brings transformation and extends His Kingdom. Pastor Allen also talks about the kitchen table as an expression of spiritual authority over our homes—who or what takes precedence in our households? We must decide for ourselves if we will yield to the daily demands and pressures of this world or if we will choose to obey the God who created us and cares for us.

What roles do our kitchen tables play? Are they surfaces to collect mail, lunchboxes, and odds and ends as we move through our day, or are they gathering spaces where we can be nourished physically and spiritually? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can establish God as the spiritual authority in our homes through hospitality and our kitchen tables. If we want to see change in our households, it will require intentionality and commitment to new habits. Nobody's family is perfect, but the good news is the God we worship is in the restoration business—He can fix anything we've messed up or Satan has destroyed. Obedience can be uncomfortable at first, but saying "Yes" to God's invitations for our households can change the destiny of our nation.

Our culture has undervalued the significance of regularly gathering together for meals in our homes—something that impacts the spiritual formation of our families and the unfolding purposes of God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses three biblical passages where Jesus teaches His audience "table manners": what it means to be a host or guest in someone's home. Hospitality, humility, and mercy are crucial components of expressing our faith, especially around the kitchen table, and Pastor Allen stresses the importance of valuing people and their invitations. God is inviting us to a more vivid faith—how will we respond?

Pastor Allen Jackson joins Conversations with Christians Engaged for a timely and deeply encouraging conversation on why the Bible is the foundation for spiritual renewal in America. As part of our Bible Revival for America 250 series, Pastor Allen shares his personal journey to faith, the discipline of reading Scripture daily, and why believers must carry a biblical worldview into their homes, churches, and communities. In this episode, you'll hear: Why consistent Bible reading transforms lives How revival begins with personal devotion to God's Word Why biblical truth must shape culture—not retreat from it How America Reads the Bible can spark national renewal If you're longing to see America return to the authority of Scripture and wondering how you can help make that happen, this episode is for you.

A spiritual force is present in each of our homes, and we want to ensure that God's Holy Spirit has the authority over our kitchen tables and gathering spaces. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of prioritizing hospitality and family meals during our busy weeks. He shares lessons we can learn from intentionally meeting together, like character formation, kindness, and integrity, and he teaches from three passages in the Gospels where we see Jesus share meals with His friends Lazarus, Mary, and Martha. In any season of life, we can find time and space to practice hospitality and pour into each other's lives—and let's determine to do so, because when we do, we honor our Lord Jesus.

Gathering for a meal—a central part of family life throughout time—is increasingly disappearing, but it's more important than we think. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson invites us back to the kitchen table. He discusses how to prioritize seeking the Lord, and he shares from the Book of Acts about the role of hospitality in the Church. Pastor Allen also teaches about discerning God's will for our lives, which is possible when we focus on His Word and cultivate a desire to know Him. Our God is a God of justice and discipline, but He is also a God of promises and provision. Let's return to the kitchen table, and through that habit, let's invite God into the midst of our lives. 

It is God alone who brings restoration and healing to us, and we can trust in Him for renewal. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how our ability to receive from the Lord is linked to our willingness to invite Him into our lives. The Lord will not always respond right when we want Him to, but through faith, we can overcome disappointment and trust that God is moving—regardless of how we feel. Pastor Allen shares stories of eye-opening acts of God's power in the lives of people like Apostle Paul, Apostle Peter, and even himself. God is inviting us to live out a bolder faith as He moves in new ways. Let's respond with "Yes!"

From the opening chapters to the final page of Scripture, miracles and healing are a consistent part of God's interactions with humanity. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can have confidence in Jesus' authority to heal. He is our Great Physician, and Pastor Allen teaches on Matthew, chapter 8, to show that our God has all authority and power over sickness, disease, and spiritual attacks. We can have the peace and confidence to approach Him, too, through Jesus' ultimate sacrifice on the cross. While a miracle or healing is never guaranteed, let's cultivate the faith to trust that God's will for us is always perfect.

Healing and miracles are part of God's redemption story for us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson teaches about the physical and spiritual restoration available to us through Jesus' work on the cross. In Genesis, we see that all of God's creation was perfect until the introduction of sin and humanity's fall from God's ideal. Pastor Allen shares that because of Jesus' sacrifice, we can be sanctified, redeemed, and restored through His blood. Does this mean God will always heal us immediately? No—our Lord is more interested in our seeking Him and being in relationship with Him. But it does mean we can hope and trust in our Savior and His perfect will for our lives.

Our nation will see reform not when policies change but when we begin revolutions in our hearts. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can transform our lives and communities when we repent and honor God's authority. Significant change is catalyzed spiritually, and that begins with repentance—recognizing our missteps, apologizing to the Lord, and changing our minds and behaviors. Pastor Allen shares Jesus' teaching on having clean hearts, and he details four steps to spark transformation in our lives. We're watching more and more corruption and lawlessness be exposed, like light revealing what's hidden in darkness. So let's trust Jesus to help us walk in new paths. 

Liberties and freedoms come from God, not from governments. If we want continued freedom in our nation, we must change our hearts to align more fully with God's desires. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses spiritual health, discipline, and the changes we must undergo to rid ourselves of corruption and sin. When we recognize sinful behaviors, attitudes, or patterns in our lives that don't reflect God's will for us, we can find freedom through repentance, renouncing, releasing unforgiveness, and resolving to change from the inside out. God is moving in the earth, and He is faithful to transform us when we earnestly seek Him.

Our culture needs a reformation, and that's going to start from change within each of our hearts. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses our need for a greater awareness of God's power and a desire to develop spiritually. We can impact our society for God's Kingdom when we consistently choose to commit and submit to our faith. Pastor Allen shares a four-step process that fuels this transformation: repent from carnal behaviors, renounce any attachment to them, release anyone or anything we're harboring unforgiveness toward, and resolve to be different. Through the blood of Jesus, we have been made clean, and when we pursue a deeper faith, God works in and through us to renew our culture.

In spite of our broken world, the existence of evil, the presence of sin, and our own mistakes, God is faithful. His redemptive power is sufficient to rescue us from any damaged situation. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses obedience to God's purposes and the reality of living our lives as advocates of Jesus. We learn from the Apostle Paul that no matter our circumstances or the hardships we deal with, we can be content under the Lord's spiritual protection. We will face disappointments, but we can rest in the truth that God is faithful to those who seek Him. 

We can stand in courage—even in the midst of increasing evil in our nation and around the world—because we represent a faithful God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can confidently trust in the Lord even when it seems like darkness is growing. He shares the importance of seeking God and practicing obedience through life's hardships, and he draws from the life of Apostle Paul to demonstrate that difficult circumstances don't mean we've been abandoned. We've been called to endure, and the God who has called us will never leave us as we stand firm in Him and His truth. 

In this uncertain world, the only way to find a certain future is to know God is faithful. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can defend ourselves against the deception in our culture and overcome anxiety and rejection through faith. He teaches from the life of Joseph, who dealt with a broken family, slavery and imprisonment, and rejection after rejection—but who refused to capitulate to the hardships he faced and instead chose to trust in the Lord. As lawlessness and wickedness increase around us, our greatest defense against the darkness is to know that God is faithful.

The rejection, disappointment, and challenging circumstances we've faced are legitimate, but they don't have the power to define our futures. Instead, we can rejoice because God is faithful. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the life of Joseph and how he trusted in the Lord through every trial and hardship he faced. Like Joseph, we have a solid foundation on which to put our hope, so we don't have to be overwhelmed with worry, anxiety, or despair. We can be confident that the God who has been faithful to us will continue to be faithful, and even when life's circumstances leave us broken, God never will.

As we continue to step into an uncertain future, let's determine to seek the Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can rely on God and His strength when we're not sure how to persevere. He teaches from the life of the Apostle Paul to demonstrate that in the midst of persecution and hatred, God's strength will allow us to endure—and endure with hope for the future. Now more than ever, our spiritual health is vital, and Pastor Allen shares the importance of prioritizing seeking the Lord. When we're faced with disappointment and hardship, let's remember that we don't have to rely on our own strength; God is faithful to help us.

"Freedom is not getting to do whatever you want. Freedom is getting to do what God wants you to do," said Pastor Rob McCoy, lead pastor of Calvary Chapel and former mayor of Thousand Oaks, California. In this interview, Pastor Allen Jackson and Pastor McCoy discuss the vital role the Church is called to play in our nation. Liberty can only be found in God, so we must guide our country's conscience in order to preserve our freedom. We may be told that Christians have no place in politics, but the opposite is true. By being an advocate for Jesus Christ, we can win hearts for His Kingdom and defeat the darkness of our culture.

Our world tells us that love should always be easy and stress-free, but is it possible that God's love for us—true love—could lead to disruption and discomfort? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses love, the theme of Advent's fourth week. We have a variety of mistaken notions about love, but we can go to God's Word to understand the truth about this topic. Pastor Allen teaches from three stories—humanity's fall in the Garden of Eden, Jesus' birth in Bethlehem, and Jesus' death on the cross—to show how our Lord's best for us can often look like boundaries, disappointment, and hardship. But through our obedience and by His love, God will faithfully transform us into something better.

Our attitudes and outlooks can impact our lives significantly, so maintaining our God-given joy is essential. But how do we maintain joy? In this sermon covering the third week of Advent, Pastor Allen Jackson shares three steps we can take to keep our joy intact, and he teaches about the impacts joy has on perseverance, especially through suffering. Like hope that needs a foundation to rest on, joy requires upkeep, and we can practice that through familiarity with God's Word, listening to God's voice, and being in godly community. Holidays can be painful, but we can have lasting joy even through suffering, because our joy is made complete through our willingness to persevere in faith.

In the Christmas narrative, angels came to deliver "good news of great joy" to us. Good news of great joy doesn't mean everything is going to be easy, but it does mean our assignments will be meaningful and well-rewarded. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson teaches about the theme for the third week of Advent: joy. We may be tempted to grumble when facing trials, but God calls us to endure with joy. It's counterintuitive to our human natures, but with the Holy Spirit's help, we can find true joy in the midst of hardship. God is moving in the earth, and we want to be a part of what He's doing in His Kingdom, so let's choose to cultivate joy—sustaining, eternal, and supernatural joy.

We will need the joy of the Lord and the strength that comes with it to complete our God-assignments. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses joy, the theme for the third week of Advent. Joy is a spiritual fuel that enables us to endure and overcome, and Pastor Allen shares examples from Nehemiah and Daniel, who flourished in hardship, to model how we, too, can rely on God to supply us with the strength we need. Our world seems to be darker day by day, but this Christmas season, let's overcome evil with the joy that comes from celebrating the birth of our Savior and King. 

Our faith has shaped our culture for hundreds of years, but we're living through an immense decline of its influence in our nation. We've been so focused on eternity that we've neglected our role in the present age. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses preparation, a theme of the Advent season. He teaches about leaders like Abraham and Stephen to demonstrate that as God progresses His plans in the world, we have to be intentional in moving with Him. The Church has an assignment, and we need to develop the discernment to understand it and accomplish it!

In the midst of God moving in the earth through remarkable miracles, demonstrations of His Spirit, and the fulfillment of prophecies, we must come to terms with the existence of evil. The second week of Advent is about peace and preparation, and in this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can have peace and be prepared for our God-given assignments, even when we're surrounded by expressions of evil. Pastor Allen shares the story of Jesus' birth, highlighting the uncertainty each person felt, even as they walked in obedience to God. Our stories will look similar, but we don't need to be overcome with fear or anxiety. As we practice obedience, Jesus promises to give us peace—and His peace is everlasting.

God's movements can bring discontinuity, discomfort, or hardship—but they also result in extraordinary outcomes. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it looks like when God moves in the earth and why choosing to hope in the Lord is essential. Afterall, hope (the theme of the first week of the Advent season) is about the future. Our futures may look tenuous, and we may have misplaced or outright abandoned our hope—but when we choose to reject despair, and hope in God's faithfulness and trustworthiness, we can find a joy that lasts even in the midst of sorrow. 

After feeling disappointed by someone or something we trusted in, how can we know where to place our hope? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses hope, the topic of the first week of Advent, and how we can be certain that God is trustworthy. He teaches about the importance of guarding our hearts and practicing patience through the discomfort of hardship. Suffering will come to all of us because expressions of evil in our world are real, but the Bible teaches that even through difficult seasons, we can rejoice. We find everlasting joy and peace when we place our hope in the Lord!

Discontentment may try to arise as you begin this year's holiday celebrations, but let's aim to cultivate thankfulness. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses five ways we can practice gratitude this Thanksgiving season in obedience to God and His Word. He shares biblical methods of expressing gratitude to God, fostering thankfulness for the blessings in our lives, repenting of ungratefulness, being thankful in spite of the hardships we face, and living humbly in service and generosity to those around us. The discipline of a grateful attitude instead of a grumbling one will bless us this holiday season.  

Life can be demanding, especially during the holidays. Instead of focusing on things to complain or be anxious about, God asks us to shift our perspectives and choose a different outlook instead. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of fostering an attitude of thankfulness. He shares activities for the three days leading up to Thanksgiving to help us refocus our minds and hearts on the Lord and His many blessings in our lives. Our daily stressors and difficulties are real—but God is more powerful than any of them.  

The Church in our nation is at a point where only God's intervention can change our future. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses preparing ourselves and welcoming God to do something new in His Church. The Bible tells us we shouldn't just expect the same things we've seen the Lord do before; instead, we should seek Him and look forward to something better. Pastor Allen draws from the stories of men like Daniel, David, and Peter to demonstrate that what we anticipate is rarely what God has in store—in fact, He has plans far beyond our understanding. To overcome evil and further the Lord's Kingdom, are we ready for Him to do something we've never seen before?

When God moves, we can find ourselves in uncomfortable situations; it's often the nature of the assignment. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the theme of the first week of Advent—hope—and how it can help us overcome fear and discomfort. He shares the stories of those involved with and surrounding the birth of Jesus, like Mary and Joseph, Elizabeth and Zechariah, and Anna and Simeon. They all faced situations full of uncertainty and anxiety, but through their obedience, they became a part of the greatest story ever told: when God sent His only Son to Earth to save us. God is moving in our lives today, and even though the changes may not be comfortable at first, pursuing our God-given assignments will lead to a life of purpose and meaning, as we share His perfect hope with a lost world.

We're watching as resistance to God's Kingdom increases and darkness in our nation and around the globe grows bolder—but when we learn to recognize God's character, intentions, and voice, His movement in the earth becomes more visible than the expressions of evil around us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the figure and spirit of antichrist discussed in the book of Revelation. He offers history about the expressions of the antichrist we've witnessed before, and he shares how we can persevere in the face of growing lawlessness and persecution. We have a choice to make: Will we capitulate to fear and darkness, or will we decide to focus our attention and energy on the triumphant Lion of Judah?

Hardship and troubling times won't come because of political or economic turmoil; these seasons will be driven by the degradation of human character. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can live with peace through frightening times. We see in the Book of Revelation that we will need courage to persevere through persecution, but Pastor Allen reminds us that we can rely on God's judgment, justice, and provision to stand boldly. God has sent us the Holy Spirit as our helper, counselor, and comforter, and through Him, we can fulfill the assignment of the Church: sharing the Good News of God's Kingdom to the ends of the earth.

We should all strive to mature in our faith, but what does that look like? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it means to grow up spiritually and truly live out a transformational faith. He teaches that maturity means being responsible and accountable, and he shares biblical and practical advice on how to develop these traits in our daily lives. Practicing politeness and gratitude can change our thoughts and attitudes to align better with Scripture's definition of growth. Maturity won't exempt us from suffering, but it gives us the strength and skills we need to navigate difficult seasons. Our faith is intended to be transformational—not to get our way, but to be changed from the inside out.

Our nation is suffering from ungodly spiritual influences, but we can begin the healing process when we earnestly seek the Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what happens when we pursue God wholeheartedly. He shares the incredible impacts of fasting and prayer on our relationship with the Lord, on our spiritual growth, and on our nation. Pastor Allen also teaches about gifts that can come only from God, like righteousness and truth. Lawlessness and demonic influence may be increasing, but our Lord rewards those who honestly and unreservedly seek after Him. 

Seeking God begins with a personal and deliberate choice, and it results in lifechanging responses from the Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses pursuing the Lord through fasting and prayer. He draws from the lives of Daniel and other spiritual leaders in the Bible to teach how to fast, what sacrifice and self-discipline look like, and how the Lord is willing to respond when we humble ourselves before Him. Evil is rearing its head with the rise of lawlessness in our nation, but with God's power and authority it will be overcome. Our Lord writes new destinies for us when we seek His face.

Following Christ shouldn't make us passive—the Lord's intention is to unleash us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of seeking the Lord and building an intentional relationship with Him. When we purposefully pursue God, He gives us peace in any situation and the boldness to overcome evil. Pastor Allen lays out the biblical guidelines for how we interact with the evil in our world, and he shares what it looks like on a practical level to strive for greater knowledge of God. Others may ask us why we should seek the Lord, but we can know with confidence that it's the most worthy pursuit for our lives.  

It's become fashionable to diminish our faith, but compromise is destructive. We are meant to be warriors for God's Kingdom. In this interview, Pastor Allen Jackson talks with Lieutenant General William G. "Jerry" Boykin, a retired Delta Force veteran, about being courageous and steadfast in our faith, even amidst difficult, life-threatening, and hostile situations. General Boykin reflects on his 36 years in the military and beyond, telling miraculous stories of God's protection and reassuring us that God will never leave us nor forsake us. He also offers encouragement for fathers, intercessors, and anyone struggling with the temptation to capitulate their faith. "You need to know what your values are. You need to know what you believe in. You need to know what you're willing to sacrifice for, what you're willing to even die for," General Boykin said. "But you need to know why you believe it."

The Bible says we're going to need strength and effort to follow the Lord. In fact, the greatest demands of our lives will be attached to our faith. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can step up and shape culture with our allegiance to Jesus Christ. It begins with intentional spiritual growth and discipline—often uncomfortable, but necessary. Pastor Allen shares the importance of influencing the next generation to practice godliness, and he speaks on the biblical reasons Christians should support the Jewish people. There's a lot of pushback in the culture regarding those two issues, but God is shaking the earth, revealing Himself as the only steady foundation. We can trust that He will restore His people.

We see so much demonic disruption and expressions of evil in the world, but God is moving in the earth. We don't want to miss it! In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the shaking we feel in our nation and around the globe. What started with COVID has progressed through events like the October 7 attack in Israel and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. These events reveal the weaknesses of things we once placed our trust in. Pastor Allen shares how these tremors point to the unshakeable Kingdom of God, and he teaches about how to impact the next generations for our Lord. He pulls from the lives of Apostles Peter and Paul to demonstrate the biblical foundation for our assignment to change culture. The Church can't just be about sermons anymore—it's about living our lives for Christ. 

We shouldn't have to apologize for taking our faith into the public square. It's not the only worldview in the public arena, and we have every right to live out our faith intentionally. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the need for us to stop hiding our Christian identity and instead shine the light of God's Kingdom purposefully in our homes and communities. We are responsible for instilling our biblical values and morals in the next generation, and that begins at our kitchen tables. It won't be easy. We will face pushback and hardship, but most things worth doing require discomfort and effort. Let's determine to do the difficult thing in pursuit of God.
