When the things we trust in are being shaken, it feels unsettling, awkward, and intimidating, but God is moving in the midst of it all. Let's not miss this opportunity to be courageous for the Kingdom. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses why we suffer and why "dangerous" faith is necessary for the seasons ahead of us. He walks through Paul and Silas' experience in Philippi to demonstrate that when we're bold in our faith, we should expect opposition, often from spiritual forces. We've been coached into a non-threatening faith, but what our culture needs is a faith that threatens the spiritual powers of darkness. So, when we suffer for the name of Christ, let's remember that He first suffered for us.

If we want to have a "dangerous" faith, we need to recognize we've been sanctified—set apart for God's purposes in the earth. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it looks like when we purposefully seek God and desire to mature in our faith. We'll have to learn to rely on the Holy Spirit because obedience to the Lord often comes with vulnerability. But Pastor Allen shares how we've been made overcomers through Jesus, and he emphasizes our need for godly community. All of our favorite heroes in the Bible led with dangerous faith, and God wants that for us, too. Let's not be satisfied with anything less than the intentional pursuit of the Lord.

The challenges in our lives are real, and our adversary, Satan, is real, but Jesus is our perfect source of strength and courage. We're not alone. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can overcome the fear and anxiety we're sure to face as we follow Jesus. He draws from the lives of great leaders like Joshua and Paul to show how God provides everything we need to be victorious in the midst of hardship. Pastor Allen also underscores the importance of community and family as we mature in our faith. Christians have faced persecution for centuries, but we can take courage! Our God is with us, and He is our strength.

We gain spiritual strength when we listen, obey, overcome fatigue, and persevere—and this is certain: We will need greater strength to participate with God in the seasons ahead. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses developing "dangerous faith" so we can learn to adapt, endure, and overcome. In the Gospels, we see Jesus and His followers facing hardship and conflict because their message challenged traditions of the day. Pastor Allen shows how Jesus' example of faith applies to our lives, as times and seasons change and the need for light in the darkness grows. We know God's purposes in the earth will be accomplished. Are we ready to participate?

Many things about Christianity are unchanging, like the authority of Scripture, the sovereignty of God, and the redemptive work of Jesus. But sometimes we think things are unable to change when, in fact, God can change them easily and dramatically. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the story of Peter and Cornelius, demonstrating that extending God's Kingdom and obeying His will for our lives sometimes requires us to break traditions or patterns of behavior. Living out dangerous faith means we're willing to be transformed, and Pastor Allen details our current culture's need for Christ-followers with this type of transformational faith. Let's have the courage to change and say "Yes" to the Spirit of God when He directs us on new paths.

Times and seasons change, and God's methods for moving in the earth do, too. Let's move with Him. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses having the courage to break patterns when God presents us with new assignments. Scripture shows us many times when the Lord determined the time was right for a new approach, and Pastor Allen shares how we can be effective Christ-followers when we're willing to grow, change, and be courageous with our faith. He also encourages us to step into a dangerous faith—a faith that threatens the kingdom of darkness with Christ in us. We don't have to step back from the public square in fear; God will help us overcome.

In America, we have abundant freedom and liberty to proclaim the gospel and live out our faith—because God has given us that freedom. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the kind of faith it takes to impact culture for this generation and the next. He shares stories of leaders who used their influence to uphold godly values, and he teaches about the importance of gratitude and repentance. America has thrived for 250 years because people of faith have sought the Lord. Now, it's our turn. To flourish in the seasons ahead, we need to listen to God's direction and be bold enough to follow Him.

Many Church traditions are beneficial and should be taught generationally, but we shouldn't confuse our appreciation for tradition with following God. He's not limited to how He's moved in the past for how He will move in the future. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson shows how God continuously breaks patterns so His Kingdom can advance, both in history and our lives today. Scripture is full of faithful people who were called to step out of their comfort zones and cultural norms to complete God-assignments. Pastor Allen challenges us to develop dangerous faith—living faith that confronts ungodliness—so we're prepared when God asks us to move with Him.

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.

"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.
