People will frustrate you. Let you down. Move slower than you’d like. Say the wrong thing at the worst time.
And if you’re not careful, you’ll start seeing people through the lens of their flaws instead of God’s potential.
In this Pioneer Rally message, Pastor Greg Mitchell cuts straight to the issue most leaders quietly struggle with… perspective. Jesus saw Peter for what he was, unstable, impulsive, flawed. But He also saw what he could become.
That tension changes everything.
If you work with people, lead anything, or just feel disqualified by your own flaws, this message will reset how you see others and yourself. God is not waiting for perfection. He’s looking for people He can work through.

What does the Bible actually say about Iran, Israel, and the end times?
In this sermon, Pastor Greg Mitchell steps back from the daily headlines and looks at the big prophetic picture. Instead of chasing a Bible verse for every explosion in the news, he lays out what Scripture says with certainty about the rapture, Gog and Magog, Armageddon, and the role Iran may play in the last days.
But this message is not just about war and prophecy. It is also about hope.
Alongside the warnings, this sermon points to a powerful possibility: that God may use turmoil in Iran to open a door for revival, salvation, and disciple-making among people who have lived under oppression for decades.
If you’ve ever wondered how current events fit into Bible prophecy, this message will help you think clearly, biblically, and urgently.

In this powerful sermon from the Perth Bible Conference, Pastor Greg Mitchell explores the story of Joseph and the coat of many colors in Genesis 37.
That coat was more than clothing. It revealed hearts.
Some responded with faith.
Others responded with envy.
And Joseph had to learn how to survive the blessing of God.
In this message you will learn:
• Why personal preferences can blind us to God’s will
• How envy quietly destroys relationships and ministries
• Why the blessing of God often makes you a target
• How to walk in grace even when people work against you
The truth is simple but searching: God will sometimes bless someone else first just to reveal what’s inside our hearts.
If you are pursuing God’s calling, this message will challenge you to accept the coat, survive the opposition, and walk in grace.

Sometimes obedience feels like gleaning scraps.
You pray.
You labor.
You preach.
And it feels like nothing is happening.
In this powerful conference message, Pastor Greg Mitchell opens Ruth chapter 2 and reveals a powerful truth:
Small acts of obedience often release massive unseen outcomes.
Ruth was just picking up grain in a field.
But that simple decision triggered:
• Provision
• Destiny
• The lineage of King David
• Ultimately the birth of Jesus Christ.
Through biblical insight, ministry stories, and the history of the Prescott fellowship, Pastor Mitchell shows how one small decision can ignite revival that spans generations.
Never despise small beginnings.
You never know which prayer…
Which outreach…
Which sermon…
…will change everything.

In Acts 13, the church fasted and prayed. What happened next changed history.
Pastor Greg Mitchell preaches from Acts 13:1–12 and reveals what happens when believers stop striving and start ministering to the Lord. This sermon explores:
Fasting is not a religious ritual. It is humility. It is preparation. It is warfare. And when God answers, everything changes.

Jesus did not leave the church guessing. He left a blueprint.
In this conference message, Pastor Adam Dragoon preaches from Matthew 28 and lays out the discipleship blueprint Jesus gave His followers to reach the world. This sermon confronts mission drift, challenges consumer Christianity, and explains why discipleship and church planting are the only way to fulfill the Great Commission.
From practical illustrations to global impact, this message calls believers back to obedience, multiplication, and supernatural dependence on God.
If the church follows the blueprint, the gospel works everywhere.
Takeaways
Chapters
2 Kings 2 isn’t a cute Bible-college brochure. It’s a field manual. In this 2015 message, Pastor Greg Mitchell contrasts the “sons of the prophets” model with Elisha’s gritty, relational discipleship. Result: information alone never produced a prophet, but impartation and obedience did.
Key themes
Bible school vs. Bible method
Three traps: head-knowledge pride, spectator Christianity, lip-service to headship
Five marks of real discipleship: impartation, direction, cost, service, supernatural power
“Double portion” = inheritance and authority to lead
Scriptures: 2 Kings 2; 1 Kings 19:19–21; James 1:22; Luke 5:4; Matthew 28:19.

Pastor Greg Mitchell closes San Antonio Conference with “Courage to Conquer” from 1 Chronicles 19:8–15. When Joab was surrounded front and back, he didn’t fold—he planned, split his forces, and cooperated with Abishai. This message tears down three myths: that courage is fearlessness, that life has easy paths, and that you can win by going alone.Key calls to action:• Do right when it’s difficult.• Plan ahead: budget, save, organize.• Reject tribalism; fight together.Scriptures: 1 Chr 19:8–15; Job 5:7; 1 Sam 17:24; Gen 41; Prov 21:5; 1 Cor 1:10–12; Ex 17.https://TakingTheLandPodcast.comSUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM FOR MORE:• Subscribe for only $3/month on Supercast: https://taking-the-land.supercast.com/• Subscribe for only $3.99/month on Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taking-the-land/subscribe• Subscribe for only $4.99/month on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3vy1s5bChapters:13:30 – The Story of John Baca: Courage Under Fire15:20 – Joab Surrounded on Every Side (1 Chronicles 19)17:00 – What Real Courage Looks Like19:10 – Life Is Hard: Marriage, Ministry, and People22:30 – Doing Right When It’s Difficult25:30 – The Power of Planning and Preparation29:10 – God Is a Planner: Lessons from Joseph and David33:40 – Planning Changes Everything37:00 – Breaking Tribalism: Learning to Cooperate45:00 – Altar Call and Prayer of Courage to ConquerShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

Abraham refused discount destiny. In Genesis 23 he pays full price for a burial field, establishing legal dominion in the Promised Land. This message dismantles bargain-hunting spirituality and shows how relationships, money, and “second-mile” obedience become the title deed to God’s purpose.
Scriptures: Genesis 23; Genesis 12:1; Matthew 13:44-46; Matthew 5:41; 1 Peter 2:23; Hebrews 11:1; 2 Samuel 24.
