March 02, 2021 61: Presidents, Politics and Prophecy: Old and New Testament Prophecy (There is a BIG difference)
We sat down with R.A. Martinez try to answer questions we have been receiving concerning politics and prophecy. It turned into a two-hour conversation about what prophecy is, what it isn't, how to test prophecy, and what is a false prophet. This week we are releasing back-to-back episodes on Presidents, Politics and Prophecy! This episode is the first hour of that conversation where we lay the foundation for what New Testament prophecy is so that we can know how to steward it.

February 16, 2021 60: Make The Great Commission Great Again
There is only one name that the Church is supposed to make great among the nations, the name of Jesus. Before His ascension, Jesus gave His disciples a commission that was rooted in His infinite desire for mankind and backed by the authority that was given to Him through the finished work of the cross. This commission would come to define, in this age, the mandate of the global Church. It is called the Great Commission. Sadly, the Great Commission is disappearing from the vision of the Body of Christ with recent statistics indicating upwards of 82% of churchgoers in America have not heard of, cannot identify, and cannot explain the Great Commission. We must, with all of our energy, work to Make the Great Commission Great Again.

February 02, 2021 59: Speaking in Tongues and Praying in the Spirit: What The What?!
In this episode, R.A. Martinez sits down with us to tackle the subject of "speaking in tongues," a common expression in the Charismatic and Pentecostal movements; many of us have heard of it or maybe even practice it in part but have never heard it explained. Is there a difference between "speaking in tongues" and "praying in the Spirit"? We ask R.A. about some traditional ideas around "speaking in tongues" and where they are found in the Bible as well as his understanding of what the "gift of tongues" actually is and how it is to be practiced. We pray this encourages and helps you!

January 20, 2021 58: Fasting is a Feast
Many across the Body of Christ are practicing the discipline of fasting as we begin this new year. R.A. Martinez and our guest take on the topic of New Testament fasting: what it is and what it isn't. It's not the WHAT of fasting that makes it effective, it is the WHY of fasting and the WHO you are encountering while you fast. Enjoy!

January 07, 2021 57: The Man Among the Lampstands: Grace and Peace
Happy New Year!

As we begin 2021, we look back to a message from R.A. Martinez titled "Grace and Peace" from the sermon series "The Man Among the Lampstands." We walked through Revelation chapter 1 during the fall of 2020 at our MAPS Family Gatherings (Sunday Service). We are convinced that the most important man for the church to have her eyes on is not the man in the White House: it is the Man among the lampstands. He has an unlimited supply of grace and peace for His church in the middle of the confusion, chaos, and crisis.

You can listen to the full series on the MAPS Family Gathering Podcast. Thanks for listening!

November 24, 2020 55: A Throne in the Tabernacle (Part 2)
There is a throne in the tabernacle. There was one in David's day. There is one in our day. There will be one forever in the age to come. This is the second part of a two-part series on the Tabernacle of David. King David's heart to build God a resting place in his generation produced a worship culture that became the blueprint for revival in Israel, the model of the New Testament church, and the patter of Jesus' Kingdom in the age to come. R.A. Martinez walks us through the storyline of the Old Testament through the New Testament explaining what exactly is the Tabernacle of David.
