In this deeply compelling message from Leading The Way's AWAKE Boston Rally, Dr. Michael A. Youssef examines Jesus’ teaching on the end times in Matthew 24-25.

As the world reflects the conditions Jesus described—deception, moral decline, and global turmoil—believers are called to wake up, stand firm in Truth, and proclaim the Gospel.

The return of Christ will bring joy for those who trust in Him and judgment for those who reject Him. Now is the time to turn to Christ, live faithfully, and be ready for His return.

AWAKE Boston was a powerful prayer rally as part of Leading The Way’s nationwide AWAKE America movement—calling believers to stand boldly in Truth and seek God for spiritual awakening. Learn more at AWAKEAmerica.com.

On the first Resurrection morning, Mary Magdalene wept at an empty tomb, not yet grasping the power of the risen Christ. In this urgent message, Dr. Michael Youssef declares that Jesus’ question—“Why are you crying?”—still confronts us today. Scripture is clear: Christ died for our sins and rose bodily on the third day. He is not in the grave. For those who have not surrendered to Him as Lord and Savior, fear and hopelessness remain. But for believers, the very power that raised Jesus from the dead dwells within us. The Resurrection calls us from despair to delight, from doubt to bold faith. Repent, believe the Gospel, and proclaim with confidence that death is defeated and Christ reigns.

In this Good Friday message, Dr. Michael Youssef reflects on Jesus’ final words from the cross: “It is finished” (tetelestai). With this declaration, Christ proclaimed that the work of redemption the Father sent Him to accomplish was fully completed—once and for all. The cross fulfilled God’s plan of salvation, and its power continues to transform lives across every nation and generation. Because of Christ’s finished work, forgiveness and eternal life are freely available to all who repent and place their trust in Him.

In the final message of Cross Conundrum, Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims the Cross of Christ as the eternal fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan—from Eden to Calvary to eternity. The Cross is not optional, symbolic, or secondary; it is the only way to be reconciled to God. Drawing from Luke 22, Dr. Youssef reveals how Jesus, in instituting the Lord’s Supper, established the Cross as the central focus of the believer’s worship, identity, and hope. The debt of sin was nailed to the Cross—paid in full by Christ's blood. Satan is disarmed, guilt is removed, and the believer is set free. This message calls every heart to repentance, thanksgiving, and daily surrender to the power of the Cross.

In Part 2 of Cross Conundrum, Dr. Michael Youssef exposes why the Cross of Christ is increasingly rejected, removed, and despised in public life—and even avoided in many churches. From courtrooms to campuses, the Cross is labeled offensive because it confronts human pride and denies self-salvation. Anchored in the inerrant Word of God, this message declares that what the world calls foolish, God proclaims as power. Jesus Christ—the sinless Son of God—became the substitute who satisfied divine justice, paid our ransom, clothed believers in righteousness, and reconciled sinners to the Father. This episode calls believers to repentance, bold witness, and urgent intercession, warning that when the Cross is silenced, the culture descends into darkness.

In this first message of Cross Conundrum, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the tragic absence of the Cross from today’s pulpits—a silence that signals the spiritual decay of our culture. With bold clarity, he exposes the modern rejection of Christ’s atoning death and affirms the Cross as the foundation of God’s eternal plan of salvation. From Genesis to Calvary, the shadow of the Cross loomed large—until Christ, the true Lamb of God, offered Himself as the only permanent sacrifice for sin. This message calls the Church back to the uncompromising Truth: that God's justice demands blood, and only the blood of Jesus satisfies. To neglect the Cross is to forsake the Gospel—and to forsake the Gospel is to lose everything.

In this Holy Week message, Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims that the Passover finds its full fulfillment in Jesus Christ—the spotless Lamb whose blood alone saves sinners from judgment. As Christ institutes the Lord’s Supper, He calls His followers to remember His sacrifice with reverence, not ritual. Even as the disciples argued over greatness, Jesus revealed true greatness through humble service, pointing to the cross. This message confronts pride, calls for genuine repentance, and urges believers to return to Christ with urgency. Scripture declares that salvation is found only through Him, and His shed blood cleanses all who turn in faith (Luke 22:19-20)

In this timely special presentation, Dr. Michael A. Youssef sits down with special co-host Erick Erickson to discuss his book An Unholy Alliance, examining the growing coalition between radical Islam and secular Progressivism.

Dr. Youssef explains how these diametrically opposed ideologies are aligning around a shared hostility to Biblical Truth and Western civilization, tracing the movement’s influence through politics, academia, and foreign funding.

Drawing on history, current events, and global trends, he urges discernment—distinguishing between everyday Muslims and Islamist political agendas—while calling the Church to boldness in proclaiming the Gospel.

Above all, Dr. Youssef issues a wake-up call for believers to renew their commitment to the Great Commission.
