Tim Barton (WallBuilders) joins Pastor Josh McPherson with the most explosive history lesson you’ll hear all year. In this raw, on-location episode filmed one block from the White House, they unpack the REAL Black Robe Regiment — the pastors who literally won the American Revolution.

You were lied to in school. Jefferson wasn’t a godless deist. Lincoln’s story is twisted. And the Founding Fathers quoted the Bible 40-50% of the time. Pastors didn’t just pray — they preached revolution, raised militias, fought with hymn books as ammo, and wrote the Bill of Rights.

Tim reveals:
• The pastor who ripped off his black robe mid-sermon to reveal a Continental Army uniform
• The “Fighting Parson” who loaded muskets with Isaac Watts hymnals and said “Give ’em Watts, boys!”
• The 50-year-old Yale pastor who stood alone on a hill firing at the British and told the officer, “I’m practicing my right of war!”

If you’re a pastor, father, or patriot who wants to understand why America exists and what’s at stake right now, this is required listening.

Pastor/State Rep. Nate Schatzline brings a prophetic challenge to Grace City Church: embrace the wilderness, kill the normal, and live with holy consistency in both “locusts and honey.” From Matthew 3, he calls the church to be a bold, consecrated movement that prepares the way for the Lord and refuses to grow familiar with God’s presence. The message culminates in a historic commissioning announcement that you won't want to miss.

In week eight of The Consecrated Life, Pastor Josh teaches on Offer: what it means to bring God a costly, joy-filled offering that honors Him, shapes our hearts, and prepares us for what’s next. From Cain & Abel to King David’s altar and the temple offerings in Chronicles, we see that God isn’t after leftovers—He’s worthy of our best.

Pastor Mark Driscoll from Trinity Church joins Grace City Church for a powerful “family meeting,” connecting the church’s Sacred Assembly season to Ezra & Nehemiah and calling for a continued rhythm of prayer, planning, fasting, and faith for favor. With twelve key words, he unpacks spiritual warfare as a battle for family, freedom, and the lordship of Jesus, and explains how God builds and then fills—first with His presence, then with new sons and daughters who will meet Christ. This message will strengthen your conviction, deepen your worship, and help you recognize what it means to gather as a sacred assembly in a thin place where heaven comes near.

In this Sacred Assembly message, Pastor Josh McPherson teaches from 2 Chronicles 20, showing how God sends praise ahead of the battle and fights on behalf of His people. With three defining words—not risk, reward; portions; breakthrough—this message calls the church into consecration, disciplined obedience, and a deeper hunger for God. As joy is restored and faith is strengthened, we learn again how worship trains our hands for war and prepares us for victory.

You haven't "arrived." You were made to learn. This message is a challenge to pride, a rebuke to spiritual boredom, and an invitation back into the presence of God. Pastor Josh McPherson unpacks why wisdom starts with fearing God, why obedience turns the volume up on God’s voice, and why a church of learners becomes a church of leaders. The takeaway: stay in the tent—because what God is about to do will require what only God can give.

At this Sacred Assembly at Grace City Church, Pastor Russell Johnson brings a faith-charged message from Mark 5—Jairus and the woman with the issue of blood—showing how honesty plants the seed of faith, and how Jesus’ authority changes everything. Ask, believe, press in, and don’t let fear set the temperature of your life. Pastor Russell calls the church to build an altar through worship, prayer, and sacrificial obedience—and to marry breakthrough to follow-through so what God starts in the room carries into every day.

What does it look like to steward a real move of God? In tonight's Sacred Assembly, Pastor Josh McPherson continues to call Grace City into a five-week rhythm of worship, testimony, prayer, and obedience—because revival isn’t a spectacle, it’s the Holy Spirit’s normal work accelerated for purification and preparation. With powerful stories (kids hearing God, radical generosity, and stepping out without a “safety net”), this message invites you into the consecrated-life prayer: Come, Lord—we’re here. Speak, Lord—we’re listening. Move, Lord—we’ll follow.
