Revival X

We need a firm rebuke against the rising tide of what many are calling Christian Universalism, but understand, this belief system is not Christian at all. Rejection of eternal torment in Hell is a heretical belief that absolutely puts one's salvation in jeopardy. They are following a different God with a different nature.

You can't find or keep a job? Listen to this podcast. Did you know the Bible mandates that we don't associate with Christians who are lazy and who don't work, who aren't productive? It's true. I often hear about people who can't find or keep a job, and I thought I'd share some insight as to why this might be happening. In the podcast I deal with how to sell yourself, how to ooze confidence, what t...

What do you do when a minister is way off base? What if they are just a little off base? Listen to this podcast and leave your comments!

Possibly the most shocking shift coming to the church is the transition away from senior pastoral leadership. What happens now is that pastors are overwhelmed with connecting with people, feeding them what they prefer and ensuring they are attended to—and that has compromised the strength and outward mission of the church. Now, of course, helping people is absolutely appropriate and necessary, and...

Preaching to the saints? You need to understand that many of them are not safe—if they are saved at all. “Who then can be saved?” Matthew 19:25 (ESV) The call of church leadership is not to confirm someone's salvation , but rather to challenge it. We need the fear and trembling to reverberate through our spirits night and day that only wrestling with our salvation can produce. Read the related art...

God is raising up passionate people of fervent and strategic prayer. Why aren’t they flocking to church prayer meetings? Read the article HERE .

I absolutely love connecting with other like-minded revivalists and those who are contending for an outpouring in their region. Listen to this short podcast to learn how to book me, what is expected and how to connect.

Give me renewal any time. I'm ready to encounter God and to be overwhelmed by his glory. However, I can't stop there. There's another level, and it will result in a deep tremor in our spirits.  We need revival. Learn about the difference here.

While we need to fully affirm the wild and bizarre activity of the Holy Spirit in the church, we need to learn how to stop acting out in foolish, outlandish and unnecessary ways in the name of God. 

If you are resistant to revival, the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, to groans of the Spirit and tongues of fire and to an atmosphere of desperation, depth, freedom and extreme hunger, and your church is attempting to pursue and affirm these things…just leave. Disappear. Stop being an irritant and a pain to the pastor you are supposed to be honoring and supporting. Quit with your manipulation, c...

What happened to the supernatural church? When we go deep in prayer and the prophetic and as we advance in our assignments, we absolutely will invade the darkness and see the spiritual realm manifest. Listen as John shares a dramatic supernatural story that gives clarity as to why this is so important for Christians today.

I was moved to tears during this podcast as I read an email about the legacy and impact we had in one of our assignments in Manitou Springs, Colorado. This message will encourage you and set you free from the lie that you must be ever growing and developing in order to be successful. Much of what you do will never be noticed by others and the impact may not be felt for years or generations. It's v...

"So, you've never sinned?" That's the snarky question people ask when Christians, who are promoting holiness in the fear of the Lord, scrutinize immorality in other Believers.  How should we handle it when others sin? What about when a Christ-professing leader sins publicly without repentance? Should we remain silent? What about Christians who support abortion and homosexual rights? We can sa...

Many are working hard to attract the wrong crowd on Sunday—and the result is an Ichabod church. I've met countless pastors and others who say they are focused on revival, but who are misguided on exactly what it is. Their focus is on attracting people to the church, on people getting “saved” and on other church growth strategies. The problem? The foundational pursuit of revival has nothing to do w...

This is a must listen! Where is the fear of the Lord in the church today? People have been duped and deceived into believing that sin has no eternal consequence in the lives of Believers. They reject the ideas of sin consciousness and behavior modification. They presume intimacy with Jesus and the grace of God are sufficient to keep them free. It's not true.

People are crying out for a church on fire, and it's time to transition the tired old wine skin out as God prepares us for a saturating, explosive outpouring. John shares clear steps on how the Sunday service can become a furnace of revival.

It's disturbing when professing Christians are turning a blind eye to serious failures by our President, who claims to be a Christian. We can pray for him, love him, support him and believe that he's God's man of the hour without also affirming immorality and inappropriate speech.

Pastors today are giving in to the demands of the people out of fear of losing their position, finances, their members and their churches...instead of trusting Jesus and offending the crowd. 

This is a MUST LISTEN! The fire of the Holy Spirit descends at this meeting after a powerful, provocative message.

Pastors, stop with your ridiculous church growth strategies. Stop counting people on Sunday mornings. Stop with the programs. STOP!  We need people who will cry out, who are desperate for a move of God, for the fire of Heaven to consume them!

 I am a proponent of unifying around the absolutes of Scripture while rejecting what so many of the heresy hunters are doing. I don't want to come against legitimate movements, even if there is some error on a lower level, if God is truly anointing them. I don't want to call out people of God simply because they aren't in my stream. However, I have been so disturbed, for years and years, abou...

You'd be shocked at how often people in the grace camp wholeheartedly reject fiery devotion to Jesus and an intense commitment to prayer as works. Thoughts?

While not as dangerous as the hyper-grace message, grace churches that major in the positives and minimize critical truths are putting millions at risk of eternal separation from Jesus

The way you prepare as a pre-tribber is RADICALLY different than the way you prepare as one who believes he will go through the great tribulation as a Christian.

Addressing error without compromising our credibility The need for people who rightly divide the truth is only going to escalate as the end-times season we are in continues to unfold. These Bereans are valuable and it would do us all well to embrace the opportunity to analyze our belief systems and to grow. Instead, all over social media especially, we see critical and arrogant spirits assaulting...
