Lance Johnson Ministries

Lance Johnson Ministries

Lance Johnson comes by way of a life of struggles having been trapped by the unrelenting grip of alcohol and drug addiction and the desperate life style that comes with it. He brings a fresh word that is woven into the fabric of a life that has known the agony of an empty soul. One early fall day in September of 1990 he had an encounter with the King of Kings that not only changed him but has eternally altered the lives of thousands that now proclaim along with him that “When Jesus sets you free you are completely free”. Pastor Lance now reaches into depths of his experience to deliver a starkly real story of freedom by the power of God. Now he only looks back to encourage those that are lagging behind. He has spent almost a quarter of a century rescuing people from a background of death and ruin and introducing them to a life of prosperity and liberty. Lance has pioneered addiction recovery ministries as well as numerous churches. He has planted bible colleges and overseas mission works, thereby reaching people from every walk of life and social background. He has introduced vast numbers of people to a victorious, overcoming lifestyle. He is currently the founder and Senior Pastor of Relevate Church in Ranger GA. He is also the founder and teacher at Lions Gate Ministry Training Academy.

Luke 19 Part 2

July 12, 2025 • 29 mins
It’s truly amazing to know that we have a God who desires a relationship with us. He does not demand that we change before we approach Him. God understands that we are not perfect due to the sin in this world, and that’s precisely why He sent His Son—to die for our sins and to invite us into a relationship just as we are. In today’s message, Bishop Lance reminds us that God wants us as we are so that He can refine us, like gold in ...

Have you ever tried your hand at pottery? If you have, you know it's not as easy as it appears. The clay has a unique consistency—soft, pliable, and easily bendable. In the same way, we are the clay in our relationship with God. Just like raw clay, we are unformed and delicate, prone to breaking under pressure. But here's the comforting truth: God is a gentle craftsman who patiently shapes our lives into what He envisions...

Mark 5 Part 2

June 21, 2025 • 29 mins
We live in a world that often seems backwards, where what is wrong is labeled as right, and what is right is sometimes dismissed. And when we stay there for a while, we may begin to adopt these views and apply them to our relationship with God. When our beliefs conflict with what the Bible teaches, and we still choose to follow our own ideas, we create a version of God in our own image. Today, Bishop Lance encourages us to put our ...

There is More at Stake Part 2

People get so laser-focused on growth in numbers for their church that they completely lose sight of what really matters…Jesus! In today’s message, Bishop Lance will ask you to take a close look at your church. Are you attending because it’s fun or because you love Jesus? Do other people visit because it’s a nice building and they have free child c...

Jesus died so we could live life and live it abundantly! That is a comfort we can’t even comprehend. Yet, we can still take it for granted.

Are You A Member Or A Follower? Part 1

Jesus was and forever will be more concerned with quality over quantity. He proved that over and over while He was on Earth. Just look at the disciples; there were only twelve!

You Will Find It at the Throne Part 2

As Christians, it is WAY easier to blame other people and judge other people before we even consider looking at our own lives. In today’s message, Bishop Lance will highly encourage you to stop and look at your own actions…or inactions, for that matter. What are you allowing in your life? What are you, or who are you allowing yourself to be influenced by? There are many people who will play the blame game but never take an honest l...
