When Jesus said, "Follow Me", He was laying out a target at which to aim. In this message, Jared looks at how the first disciples were constantly having their aim refocused as they walked with Jesus. Then he draws comparisons to each of us who have heard the call, "Follow Me". Bible: Matthew 4:16-22; John 10:24-30

Jesus is the Most Admirable person in all of creation. Why? He only does what He sees the Father do and He only says what He hears the Father say. We pray you are blessed by this message. Bible: Mark 5:21-43

In this message, Jared discusses one of his highest priorities as a dad..."training my sons to be guided by God's voice." May the smallest whisper of His voice move our hearts. Bible: 1 Kings 18-19

In this message, Segun speaks about listening to and obeying God's voice. All the instruction we need for life is found in His voice. Bible: Psalm 119:105; 2 Timothy 3:16-17

In remembrance of Pentecost, Jared speaks about the vitality for all believers to be filled with the Holy Spirit. He's in us for us, but He's upon us for others; and the world needs the church to be filled with people on whom the Holy Spirit rests. Bible: Acts 1:4-8; Acts 2; Joel 2:28-32

God is a good Father and, because of that fact, He will not release to us that which we have no structure to support. Therefore, God releases His word into us to build the structures that will support what He is sending our way. Bible: John 16:12-15; Proverbs 4:10-13; Isaiah 30:20-21

God will always cause His fire to fall on the altar of our sacrifice, but it is our responsibility to keep the fire burning. Is the fire on your altar still burning? Are you tending to it day and night? Bible: Leviticus 6:12-13; Acts 4:13; Acts 2

This message is a reminder that we are to keep the altar at the center of our lives. The altar is a place of sacrifice and obedience unto the Lord. It is the place where we meet God and are changed.

We need the Spirit of God to be BOTH in us and upon us. If we have one without the other, we miss the FULLNESS of His Spirit! Bible: John 14:25-31; John 15:1-8

The Great Lion of the Tribe of Judah is not safe, but HE is Good! We do not choose to follow Jesus because He is the "safe" choice. We choose to follow Jesus because we have tasted and seen that He is good and because we believe He is the Bread of Life! Bible: John 6:66-71

Our wants in life are birthed from our needs. I need food and water, but I want a cheeseburger and lemonade. Often, the things our flesh want can begin to override our needs and rearrange our values and priorities. But, in the Kingdom, our needs should arrange our wants. Bible: John 6:22-40

The enemy, who is the father of lies, always comes to us before breakthrough and attempts to convince us there is no resurrection breakthrough coming. But resurrection breakthrough is real and it is available because Jesus was resurrected from the dead! Bible: Matthew 22:15-26; Matthew 27; Matthew 28

Whatever we are engaged with captures us. Therefore, the way to peace is to disengage with the constrictor and to become captured by the Father. Bible: 2 Timothy 2:4

We cannot afford to be distracted from the "Mission" of Jesus. In this message, Jared highlights our mission, as believers, and some of the works that Firelife is invested in. Bible: Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:1-8

Fear, that is not rooted in awe and wonder for God, is a dangerous fear. It is a fear that is at war with the very nature of God and it cannot co-habit the same place. God is going to restore the fear of the Lord in His people, but He isn't going to do it through punishment and anger...He is going to do it by astounding us with wonder upon wonder. Bible: Proverbs 1:7; Isaiah 29:13-14; Mark 4:35-41

Jesus is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. And He has a Kingdom with rules and operating procedures. And as citizens of His Kingdom, our spiritual act of worship is to offer ourselves unto Him as a living sacrifice. Bible: 1 Chronicles 21; Romans 12:1-2; Psalm 51:16-17

Revival is a term we use in the church world to describe an awakening or coming back to life from death. We use it to describe what happens when people return to the Lord and begin to see His Kingdom manifest in every day life. Sadly, we also have unintentionally added an expiration date on "revival". But God's Kingdom is from glory to glory. It does not diminish or dissipate. God has made perpetual revival available to anyone who recognizes their need for it and for those who are hungry and thirsty for it. Bible: Matthew 5:3; Matthew 5:6

In this message, Jared warns of a new virus in the church world called, "progressive christianity". This ideology is the religious version of being "woke" in pop-culture. This ideological virus comes from the belief that truth is not eternal because it must take the ever-changing culture into account. But, as believers, we know that truth does not progress or shift under the pressures of culture. Truth has a Name and His Name is Jesus; and Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever. Colossians 2:8; Colossians 3:1-3; 2 Timothy 2:3-8;

In this message, Jared uses the temptation of Jesus to call us to focus and attention. Bible: Matthew 4:1-11

Someone once said we should not pray to be safe from danger, but to be fearless when facing it. The dangerous times in which we live are not a call to safety or self-preservation, but to courage. In this message, Jared outlines Biblical proof that true courage comes from being filled with the Holy Spirit. Bible: Acts 2-4
