All Saints Church Podcast

The spiritual gift of prophecy has incredible power to demonstrate God's presence to his people. That’s what all spiritual gifts are designed to do, yet prophecy, when operating in humble, others-oriented love, accomplishes this better than any of them. But what is it? And what does this particular gift reveal about what Jesus is like? Listen now to learn more!

God's plan for the church is to cultivate Christlike lovers with cross-shaped lives. Therefore, the gifts of God without the love of God miss the whole point. Listen now for more.

Being part of Christ's body means we all belong, no matter how big or how small our gifts may seem. In fact, each of us is indispensable, so we must learn to discern and joyfully use our spiritual gifts to help the body grow and mature. You are a part of the body, but are ready to play your part?

Jesus envisions a powerful church where everybody receives gifts from the Holy Spirit to help them commune with God and connect God to others. But what are spiritual gifts? Are they really for everyone? And what about the ones that feel strange to us? We will explore these questions and more in our new series, "Spiritual Gifts," but first we must build a foundation. We begin in 1 Corinthians 12, w...

Paul closes his letter to Titus with a call to avoid divisive people and remind the church to devote themselves to doing good. Practical applications include supporting mission partners, contributing to the benevolence fund, and living as a generous, unified community that reflects God’s love to the world.   PS - Here is the link to the message "How to Use Your Money" referenced in the sermon: htt...

This Pentecost, one of our Community Leaders, Tam Tran, unpacks Titus 3:3–8. When God appears in Jesus, false hopes are confronted, ancient prayers are answered, and spiritual orphans becomes sons and daughters. As those who are now justified by grace and made heirs of eternal life, we respond to the goodness of God's appearance through baptism, confession, and a life of good works. PS - This a re...

Christ has appeared, and he changed everything. Christ will come again, and end evil once and for all. But how should we as Christians live in unjust social systems and imperfect governments while we await Christ’s return? According to Titus, we must be honest about suffering, pursue holiness through the Spirit, and work for the common good with hope rooted in the resurrection. PS - For a deeper d...

Tinika Wyatt unpacks Titus 2:3–5, calling older believers to live reverently, avoid slander and drunkenness, and model and teach what is good so younger women can love their families and follow Christ. Staying close to him, through confession and prayer for one another, is how we live in spiritual overflow and pass faith and wisdom to future generations.

To become healthy disciples, we need those who have gone before us to show us the way. For the men at All Saints Church, this means cultivating a community where men make the investment in the next generation, model healthy masculinity to those around us, and are willing to be made well by Jesus. Listen now for more.

Paul gives Titus an urgent call to confront deceptive teachers in Crete, because they are destroying whole households with their false gospel. To confront the false gospels in our own time, we must become lovers of the truth who see through lies, shut the door on corrupting influences, and speak truth to restore those who have fallen away.

Elders are official church leaders who are recognized within their community, called by God, and appointed by fellow elders to cultivate Kingdom culture in local churches. They do this by managing God’s household, modeling God's ways, teaching God's word, and protecting God's people. But more important than what they do is what they smell like. And shepherds smell like sheep. 

The gospel of Jesus Christ confronts and corrects our culture to make it more like the kingdom of heaven. The letter to Titus is a classic example of this process at work: On the island of Crete is a young church struggling to live out Jesus' kingdom amidst their native cultural narratives and social norms, so Paul sends Titus to finish what remains unfinished. He must strengthen their faith, but...

Christ is risen! We all come to the empty tomb with different perspectives, and Jesus meets each of us right where we are. Using three perspectives—Mary’s sorrow, John’s belief, and Thomas’s doubt—we discover how the resurrection meets the sorrowful with hope, invites skeptics into encounter, and calls believers to deeper understanding and steady faith. Listen now for more.

Brad McKoy, a dear friend of All Saints, shares the meaning of the Palm Sunday cry "Hosanna." More than a passing praise, it is a plea to save, liberate, and deliver. This message is a timely correction for when our expectations of the Messiah differ from Jesus' gentle, sacrificial character. May we grow in persistent faith and daily devotion to the real Jesus!

The Bible is both literature and alive, able to pierce our souls and shape our hearts with the truth of the gospel. As we close our series on Reading Scripture Well, we discover how stories—especially Jesus’ parables—form our imagination and understanding of the God who designed us to experience him through His word. We don't just read scripture; by God's Spirit, scripture reads us. 

Reading scripture as an act of spiritual warfare helps us to remember who we are and demolish demonic doctrines. Learning to wisely wield this "sword of the Spirit" is a lifelong journey, but we can grow in our discipleship each day as we memorize, pray and obey the Word of God. 

Encountering Jesus in the word through daily devotions is vital to our spiritual formation, but it was never meant to be done alone. Reading scripture well requires us to read with our spiritual forefathers (and mothers), our global neighbors, and our local community. When we do, we become faithful readers committed to the faith that was "once and for all entrusted to the saints" in the long story...

One of the boldest claims Jesus makes is that the whole Bible is about him. He is the lens through which we interpret scripture, the light by which we read, and his life tells the story that makes sense of everything else. Yet before we can read scripture well, many of us need Jesus to meet us in the middle of confusion, disappointment, and half-belief. Thankfully, Jesus walks beside us the whole...

All Saints Church turns two! Join us as we celebrate where we've been, cast vision for where we are going, and hear an invitation from the early church for how we get there.

Jesus has an authority no one else has, to do for us what no one else can. He demonstrates this by forgiving a paralyzed man's sins in Matthew 9 – an authority reserved for God alone – before healing his body, too. As his miracles reveal his uniquely divine nature as God made flesh, we discover that Jesus sees our faith, forgives our sins, and offers eternal hope when all hope seems lost. Listen n...

In Matthew 8:28–34, Jesus confronts the forces evil and sets two demon-possessed men free. Frightened by his power, the people of the surrounding towns ask him to leave. Today, Jesus still has authority over demons, and a deep desire to set us free from everything that keeps us from him. Will we welcome him or reject him? And when we do welcome him to transform our lives, do we continue to keep th...

In Matthew 8:23-27, the disciples follow Jesus into a boat across the Sea of Galilee when an unexpected storm hits. This perilous moment tests their faith, while also revealing three important truths about Jesus that all disciples must remember: Jesus is close, Jesus corrects the ones he loves, and Jesus is in control. May we move from fear to faith as we recognize his authority over the storms th...

In Matthew 8:18-22, we meet two (potential) disciples–one with career aspirations and another with cultural commitments–whom Jesus confronts with the cost of true discipleship. Their encounters with Christ reveal two questions we can ask ourselves today: Are we willing to choose his vision for our futures over our own? Is our relationship with him our most important relationship? Don't get the wro...

Dr. Eric Redmond explores Matthew 8:14–17, showing Jesus as a compassionate authority who touches and heals Peter’s mother-in-law, casts out demons with a word, and heals all who are sick—fulfilling Isaiah’s prophecy that he would bear our infirmities. He invites believers to pray boldly, bring every need to Christ, and recognize the cross as the basis for healing and deliverance.

The healing of a centurion's servant in Matthew 8:5–13 highlights one soldier's humility and extraordinary faith in Jesus' authority. It also demonstrates Jesus' compassion toward this ethnic and political enemy, which he expects his Church to mirror. Finally, we discover that faith, not perfection or pedigree, grants access to God's kingdom.
