Dangerous faith calls people change their patterns of behavior to align with Christ instead of culture—and that’s what makes it dangerous. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it looks like to embrace a bold faith that challenges ourselves and those around us to lead godly lives. The truth is often disruptive, and Pastor Allen shares stories of courageous leaders who faced adversity, challenges, and hardship in order to complete their God-assignments. Our faith should challenge culture and advocate for biblical obedience. Instead of accommodating ungodliness, our “dangerous faith” should disrupt it and call it out—not with condemnation, but with conviction, boldness, and care. The only way to bring a biblical worldview back into the public square is by living out a dangerous faith.

When it feels like God’s judgment is unfolding around us, leaning into prayer is one of the most powerful things we can do. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses seeking the Lord through prayer in the midst of turmoil and His discipline. We will all face challenges and suffering, but we don’t need to fear—we need to draw closer to God. Pastor Allen shares insight from Scripture about how to have a healthy fear of the Lord, what His judgment looks like, and why obedience, prayer, and fasting are the best courses of action we can take. Our Lord is merciful, so even when our circumstances are troubling, we can trust Him when He tells us He loves us.

“If you will wait, God has a plan for your life,” said Dr. George Jackson, Pastor Allen Jackson’s father and founder of World Outreach Church. “He’s not a day ahead of you. He’s way ahead of you.” In this interview, Pastor Allen and Dr. George discuss how living out his faith in his family, careers, and friendships helped Dr. George learn to trust the Lord for his future, even when challenges arose. Because of this father’s faith, the Jackson family and countless others experienced the blessings of God, and Dr. George shares wisdom for us today about the importance of following the Lord’s guidance and making time to care for those around us. We can make a difference in the world when we determine to please God with our lives.

God chose to identify Himself as our Heavenly Father, and in doing so He attached tremendous value to fatherhood. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses God’s design for dads. Each of us has a father here on earth. He may be great—or not-so-great—but God is our perfect Father. As we examine God’s character in the Bible, we see what a godly dad looks like: a protector, a provider, and a spiritual leader. We can grow and mature spiritually when we learn to forgive ourselves and our fathers and determine to seek the Lord wholeheartedly. So, let’s choose to honor our dads—both our earthly fathers and our Heavenly Father—and receive God’s blessing.

We have a Spirit in us Who is greater than any spiritual force of evil present in the world. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses our need for a prayer life that involves the Holy Spirit. We all have a sinful or carnal nature that Jesus calls us to overcome, and that’s only truly possible when we rely on the help of God’s Holy Spirit. Pastor Allen also shares biblical insight about demonic spirits at work today, the nature of deception, and how we can discern the difference between an unholy spiritual force and the Holy Spirit Himself. We don’t have to be trapped in sinfulness—Jesus has invited us to be conquerors, and He will equip us with the power we need.

We shouldn't be discouraged when the Lord disciplines us. He lays boundaries in our lives because He cares for us and wants us to flourish, so instead of losing heart, let's respond in prayer and thanksgiving. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what the Bible says about praying and the different kinds of prayers we can offer. As deception increases around us, it's vital to know how to pray—and then to fill each day with invitations for God to be involved. Pastor Allen teaches through the Lord's Prayer, and he shares examples of Jesus' prayer life that we can learn from. Let's strive to be people of prayer, constantly extending invitations to our Lord.

We have been given the authority to invite God into every situation through prayer. It takes compassion and courage, but it's the best way to turn up the light in the darkness. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict raging in the earth and the power we have through prayer to make a difference in our lives and the lives of those around us. He draws from New Testament stories to teach about the different kinds of prayer and why this is a spiritual weapon we need to know how to wield. When we're feeling anxious, lonely, or overwhelmed with the problems in the world, we can rejoice in knowing our God hears us when we cry out to Him.

When we pray, we bring God's authority, presence, and power into the spiritual battles raging around us—so let's be intentional about our prayers. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the power of praying even very simple prayers to invite God to move in our lives and around the globe. He teaches from Bible passages about King Hezekiah, Peter, and Jesus that demonstrate the difference even a three-word prayer can make and the power our Lord has to save and deliver us. God can do remarkable things for His Kingdom, so inviting Him in through prayer should not be our last resort but our first action.
