In this powerful message from 1 Samuel 17, Dr. Michael Youssef declares that spiritual defeat begins when God’s people replace the Lordship of the living God with human strength. Israel trembled before Goliath because they saw themselves as servants of Saul, not soldiers of Yahweh. David, however, came from a life of worship and obedience, filled with the Spirit of God and jealous for His Holy Nam...

In this opening message of A Heart for God , Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims the unchanging Biblical Truth that God looks not at outward appearance but at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7).

This message calls us to repentance, su...

In What Ever Happened to Hell? , Dr. Michael Youssef closes Heaven Awaits with a sober warning from the inerrant Word of God: hell is real, eternal, and prepared for Satan and his demons.

This message...

In The Return of Christ , Dr. Michael Youssef warns from the inerrant Word of God that Jesus Christ will return as King and Judge.

Only those who repent, trust Christ alone, and obey His Word are ready for...

In On Earth As It Is In Heaven , Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims that believers already possess every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus.

In The 3 Heavens , Dr. Michael Youssef teaches from the inerrant Word of God that Heaven is not a vague idea, but a real place prepared by God.

This message calls believers...

In Who Is Going To Heaven? , Dr. Michael Youssef gives the only answer Scripture allows: no one will see the Kingdom of God unless he is born again.

Like Nicodemus, every person must come to Christ and receive the cleansing...

Believers will see His fac...

In this final message of Discipleship 101 , Dr. Michael Youssef leads believers to the summit of Christian understanding: the incomprehensible love of God. Drawing from Ephesians 3, he reveals that only by God’s power can we begin to grasp the depth, height, and breadth of Christ’s love—a love that cost the life of the sinless Son of God, was given to the utterly undeserving, and results in adopti...

In this third episode of Discipleship 101 , Dr. Michael Youssef boldly proclaims that the secret to knowing God’s will is not hidden knowledge or mystical signs—it is willing obedience .

Even when doors seem unclear or mistakes are m...

In this second episode of Discipleship 101 , Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims one of the most misunderstood and neglected truths in the Church today: the holiness of God.

This message pierces the heart of cultural conformity, exposi...

In this first episode of Discipleship 101 , Dr. Michael Youssef lays a firm foundation for the life of a true disciple by proclaiming the absolute sovereignty of God.

In the final message of Whose Disciple? , Dr. Michael Youssef shows that true disciples do not merely speak of love—they live like Jesus. In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Christ reveals His own mission: He stopped for helpless sinners, stooped in humility, served in mercy, and saved through grace. The inerrant Word of God makes clear that dead religion cannot heal the wounded soul, but the di...

In Part 3 of Whose Disciple? , Dr. Michael Youssef declares that true disciples of Jesus Christ are marked by supernatural love.

In Part 2 of Whose Disciple? , Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the false, self-centered message that has crept into many churches and contrasts it with the uncompromising words of Jesus.

The Lord does not promise an easy path but calls sinners to repentance, self-...
