In this message, Pastor Mark Casto shares from the vulnerable place of one who has lived and experienced anxiety throughout different seasons of life. Where religion placed shame on those who experience anxiety the gospel offers us a solution, a way out of the bondage of anxiety.

We are headed into new territory, new experiences, and in those moments the enemy likes to use our inexperience in new places and phases of life to plant the seed of anxiety and grow within us an expectation of a future without God. Anxiety is nothing more than a godless future trying to call you out of the grace of PRESENT UNION!

Pastor Mark teaches us where our thoughts should be continually fixed and fastened upon so we can rise above the life of anxiety and into the realm of peace. Our prayer is that this message will be life-changing for each of you listen.

Also, if you need prayer for anxiety, please email Pastor Mark Casto at [email protected]

Jump into a conversation with Bobby Lemley and Mark Casto as they talk about a shared common value. You will laugh and cry as two brothers process their encounters and how a shared common value brings a reordering to your life.

Of all the things that the disciples observed in the life of Jesus, and of all the questions they could have asked, they asked, "Teach us how to pray." And He did.

We have too many in this day asking how to cast out demons, or how to walk in signs and wonders, and although those things were modeled in the life of Jesus, it all flowed out of His communion with Abba.

In this message from Pastor Mark Casto, he shares about the foundational revelation that all prayer should begin with is exactly what Jesus taught, the Abba revelation. Not the fiery fearful, smoke-filled manifestation of the God at Mount Sinai, but the tender-loving father that Jesus said, when you pray, call Him Abba.

We also journey into the parable of the Loving Father so that we can understand the true nature of Abba and how we are to approach Him at the throne of grace. Maybe approaching the throne will look less like the walk of shame into a courtroom, and look more like the Loving Father running to meet you where you are!

In this teaching from Pastor Mark Casto, he shares with us foundations and misconceptions about Biblical faith. Some have reduced faith to the equivalent of positive thinking, or Spirit-led mind over matter, where we reduce Jesus to an accessory to get what we want. We cannot allow faith to become about things, when it was intended to be about trusting the Savior.

May this teaching help you return to a faith that trusts and obeys Jesus in the good and the bad.

In this message from Pastor Mark Casto, he shares with the family on how an encounter with Jesus calls us into a reordering of our way of life. Jesus called his disciples in Mark 8:34, to disown their way of live and continually surrender to His ways.

We pray this message will help you yield intentionally into the counter-cultural grace of the Kingdom of God and may we all learn to be led by the Spirit in the opposite spirit of the world.

When Mark and Destani were sent to Covington, GA, the Lord sent them here with a specific assignment to raise up a family that will host His Presence extravagantly. This is a core DNA message for our family that will help you understand the worship culture that we believe will be established here at The Shepherd's Tent.

Being a follower of Jesus demands a reording of our way of life, it is what Apostle Damon Thompson calls a "prioritizing of focused affection." In this message from Pastor Mark Casto, we continue our journey into understanding an ancient practice of the church called a "rule of life."

A rule of life is simply a schedule and set of practices to order your life around the way of Jesus within the context of Kingdom family. Because the Kingdom of God is counter-cultural, we are learning a brand new blueprint for our lives.

One of those key areas to understand is that Kingdom life is not to be engaged by yourself. Jesus has called you to be planted in a specific place, in a specific environment, to grow a specific way, and among a specific type of plants.

It's the beginning of a new year and many are contemplating new resolutions, habits, and things they want to see established. In all of that thinking, you may not realize it, but you are contemplating the order of your life.

The culture the Lord sent us here to establish is founded upon three key words: HONOR - ORDER - DEVOTION

When we speak of order we are talking about the priorities of your life that overflows from what you honor and are devoted to.

This is not a message many people have heard in Pentecostal/Charismatic circles, however this is not a new teaching, but because we have lost the ancient paths of being followers of the way of Jesus, this kind of teaching is new to us.

Our prayer is that this message from Pastor Mark will deliver you from the unexamined auto-pilot life of American Christianity and bring you into a life of intentionally following the way of Jesus.

Yahweh sent Mark and Destani here to raise up a Kingdom family, and today you get to hear from a son who has chosen to walk this path and be joined to what the Lord is doing here in Covington, GA.

In this message from Caleb Halstead, he talks about his discovery of the place of union with Jesus. We pray you are blessed by this message!

King David declared, " What happy fulfillment is ahead for those whose rebellion has been forgiven and whose sins are covered by blood. What happy progress comes to them when they hear the Lord speak over them, 'I will never hold your sins against you!'" (Romans 4:7-8, TPT)

As we continue our journey in recovering the sacred nature of joy, we find another dimension of uncontainable joy in the declaration of righteousness. Listen to this message from Pastor Mark on "Happy Righteousness!"
