- Surviving Difficult Times
May 31, 2024 • 49 min
When you’re in the middle of difficult times, your perspective can be distorted. You can’t see the end, and you probably forgot how and why you got to where you are. But God understands every path and purpose. When Paul and Silas were shackled and imprisoned, they still sang songs to Him and were eventually broken free by an earthquake. When all you can see is darkness, keep that same faith. You’re about to be freed!

- Identity Crisis - Pastor Touré Roberts
May 27, 2024 • 1h 19m
One of Satan’s most effective attacks is to alter the perception of who you really are. He uses deceit to sow doubt and shame, trying to create an identity crisis within you. But your sins and shortcomings don’t define you. Just as David realized in the book of Psalms, you are fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of the Almighty God. Your creation came with a unique purpose. Walk boldly in faith with the confidence that you are His child, fully blameless and redeemed through the blood of Jesus Christ!

- The Convergence
May 24, 2024 • 1h 3m
Message: "The Convergence" Scriptures: Romans 12:1-4 (NKJV); Hebrews 9:11-16 Speaker: Bishop T.D. Jakes Paul's journey from a Jewish Pharisee to an apostle for the Gentiles is one of several examples of God using our dichotomy for His purpose. Moses is another example. Being born an oppressed Hebrew but raised as Egyptian royalty prepared him for greatness. Perfection isn’t a prerequisite. True service means stepping out of your comfort zone, coming as you are, and totally submitting to God. Paul urges us to be living sacrifices, embodying both the offeror and the offering, just like Jesus did. Welcome the challenges as requirements for your evolution. Have faith in the process and embrace the transformation! #TheConvergence #LivingSacrifices #IDontHaveToBePerfect
- A Symphony In A Synagogue
May 20, 2024 • 1h 8m
In Luke, Jesus healed a woman who was crippled for 18 years. Analyzing this miraculous restoration teaches us that God's plans require our courage and patience. It's crucial to trust His timing and act on faith! Everything might not happen the way you pictured. But “delayed” does not mean “denied”. He often performs miracles in the midst of mayhem — so praise Him in every season no matter the circumstances. Stay focused, and utilize your unique gifts and creativity. This could be your day! With God as your conductor, you’ll see life become the beautiful symphony He intended it to be. Message: "A Symphony in a Synagogue" Scriptures: Luke 13:10-17 (KJV) Speaker: Bishop T.D.

- Jehovah Nissi: The Lord Is My Banner
May 19, 2024 • 47 min
Message: “Jehovah Nissi: The Lord Is My Banner” Scripture: Exodus 17:8-16 (KJV) Speaker: Dr. Oscar Williams Jr. Date: May 15, 2024 A spiritual war is being waged around you, and God is fighting battles you can’t even see. When you’re caught up in a fight, remember your strength isn’t in the physical, it’s in your faith. Just as when Aaron and Hur helped Moses lift his weary hands to win the battle against Amalek, God will be the source of your strength. Lift up your hands in faith to let the enemy know you are tapped into the source of victory. Remember, the battle belongs to the Lord! #JehovahNissi #TheLordIsMyBanner #SpiritualWarfare

- The Peace Plan
May 10, 2024 • 1h 11m
Message: “The Peace Plan” Scripture: Philippians 4:6-9 (NIV) Speaker: Dr. Joel Tudman In these tumultuous times, true peace and fulfillment don’t come from just hard work and external approval — they come from a deep, personal connection with God. That’s why it’s essential to seek comfort in scripture, prayer, and praise, which provide a pathway to building a pure, trusting relationship with Him. Obtaining this peace may mean making changes or sacrifices, but ultimately it will calm your mind and heart! Maintaining ethereal peace that surpasses all understanding will infuse spiritual transformation and improve your interaction with the world around you. #ThePeacePlan #Philippians4 #PeaceThatPassesAllUnderstanding

- Unexpected Answers
May 3, 2024 • 55 min
Message: “Unexpected Answers” Scriptures: Luke 7:11-17 (NASB) Even though Jesus’ miracles fulfilled prophecy, they still happened at unexpected times and places. Similarly, people continue to get caught off-guard like this today. From our limited viewpoints, some of God’s actions can be hard to understand. This is because He is orchestrating in the eternal while we’re busy worrying about today. But don’t allow doubt to creep in. God is all-knowing, and He has answers that we’d never see coming. So when you can’t see the way, have faith that He will provide exactly what you need at the perfect time. #UnexpectedAnswers #AllKnowingGod #Luke7
- Backed by Power
Apr 28, 2024 • 1h 6m
Scripture: Exodus 14:11-21 (NKJV) Speaker: Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts When the children of Israel found themselves caught between the powerful Egyptian army and the uncrossable Red Sea, they had to resist fear and trust in the plan and power of God. It takes vulnerability and faith to remain connected to the ultimate source. He has ordained a time, place, and way to deliver you. Just like with the Hebrews, sometimes He might require you to push through, and sometimes He might want you to stand still. It doesn’t have to make sense to YOU. But you have to be obedient if you want to see His power move! #BackedByPower #SilentTransitionsOfPower #HowToSeeGodsPowerMove
- Marriage Maximization: “Working Through Trauma Together”
Apr 27, 2024 • 1h 12m
Scripture: John 10:10 Speaker: Dr. Natasha Stewart-Gresham People don’t usually wear their trauma on their sleeves. We may see red flags, but we often spend lots of time covering our trauma, trying to hide it. In Christ, our position is secure, even if our condition may be toxic. But our scars show that the damage didn’t win. You cannot conquer your trauma until you face it. #WorkingThroughTraumaTogether #WhatIsTrauma #CouplesCounseling

- Spiritual Development: “Understanding Your Gift and Calling ”
Apr 27, 2024 • 1h 19m
Scripture: Romans 11:29 (KJV) Speaker: Pastor Dr. Valerie Crumpton Your gifts are the unique skills and talents that God has provided you, and your calling is the authority He has given you to use them.

- The Prophetic Prayer
Apr 21, 2024 • 55 min
"The Prophetic Prayer" Scripture: 2 Kings 6:11-17 (NKJV) Bishop T.D. Jakes Elisha’s story in 2 Kings 6:11-17 teaches us a powerful lesson: You are never alone. When his servant was afraid of the enemy armies, Elisha prayed and the servant could then see God’s army of fiery chariots protecting them.
