In this message, Pastor Ken Bulgrin preaches on The Purpose of Praise and why praise isn’t just a reaction to good circumstances, it’s a weapon that changes the atmosphere.

Using Luke 19:40 and Hebrews 13:15, Pastor teaches the difference between praise (because of what God has done) and worship (because of who He is), and calls the church into continual praise, especially when it costs you something. The “sacrifice of praise” is what you offer when you don’t feel like it, and God responds to it.

If you need a breakthrough, this episode is a strong reminder: praise doesn’t just report the temperature of your life, it helps set it.

In this message, Bro. Jason LaBar teaches on the forerunner — looking at the life and ministry of John the Baptist and how God uses process, silence, and preparation before purpose is revealed.

Drawing from the lives of Elijah and John the Baptist, this sermon reminds us that seasons of waiting are not punishment, but part of God’s process. God is building depth, faith, humility, and trust before He brings His purpose to pass.

This message challenges every believer to prepare their heart through true repentance, to live with spiritual boldness, and to point others to Jesus in everything we do.

In this message, Pastor Ken Bulgrin teaches from Ecclesiastes 7:21 and Isaiah 26:3 on the spiritual discipline of guarding our focus and learning what must be ignored in order to stay faithful, peaceful, and effective in our walk with God.

Distractions, voices, and unnecessary battles can slowly pull believers away from prayer, devotion, and spiritual sensitivity. This teaching reminds us that focus is spiritual warfare, consistency in prayer outlasts every crisis, and not every voice deserves a response.

If you are feeling worn down, distracted, or mentally pulled in too many directions, this message will help refocus your heart and mind on Jesus Christ and the work God is doing in your life.
