Many Christians know that spiritual warfare is real. They feel the attacks in their minds and in other areas of their lives—but are we fighting this war the way the Bible teaches?
We know that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but it often feels as though it is. Should we wage spiritual war by searching for territorial spirits or confronting fallen angels? The Bible reveals where the real battlefield is, which...
Have you ever wondered why the world is the way it is? Why is there so much deception, darkness, persecution, and spiritual confusion?
Is the Bible primarily a story about heaven and hell? Or is it the story of two kingdoms at war—the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan?
In this lesson, we lay an important foundation for understanding the spiritual world. Beginning in Genesis and continuing through the teach...
When did the New Covenant actually begin? Was it at Jesus' birth, at the cross, at the resurrection, or on the Day of Pentecost?
Is the Day of Pentecost just for Pentecostal people and only about speaking in tongues? Or is it the beginning of something much greater that points us toward the return of Christ?
In this lesson, we take a fresh look at the Book of Acts and discover how the giving of the Holy Spirit was the...
This is a very special episode.
My good friend Edouard is a faithful disciple, a fruitful leader, and a man who has helped many people in France and other countries come to Jesus and grow as disciples. But right now, he is facing a very serious battle with cancer. The doctors have said they have no more treatment to offer. And yet, this is not a story without hope. I
In this powerful and emotional conversation, we talk openly a...
Because of a right heart and a humble attitude, they saw doors open that had never opened before.
Over the last few years, around 60 people have been baptized — many of them in a simple bathtub — and many more lives have been transformed.
This is not about taking over churches. It’s about serving, loving, and letting fruit grow over time.
You don’t want to miss this story.
Most Christians believe in God. But how many truly know Him?
In this episode, we talk about the difference between:
• Knowing about God
• And actually knowing God
There is a huge difference between theology and intimacy. Between information and relationship. Between correct doctrine and walking with the Holy Spirit.
📖 John 17:3 — “This is eternal life: that they know You…” Jesus di...
There is a lot happening in the church right now. Sin is being exposed. Well-known ministers are being revealed to have lived double lives.
Videos are coming out that are shaking many people. Today we talk about that — but we also go deeper. Not just what is happening, but why. What is the real issue beneath the surface? And what is it that very few are talking about?
In this episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, ...
What does it really mean to be “free indeed”?
Jesus said:
“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” (John 8:36)
Yet many believers truly love Jesus—yet they are still bound.
They want to live free, but they keep struggling with the same sin again and again.
In Episode 2 of the Disciple Makers Podcast, we talk about a truth many avoid:
👉 A half gospel can...
Many believers have knowledge—but very little fruit. Jesus said the Father is glorified when we bear much fruit (John 15).
In this first episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, we talk about the two kinds of fruit the Bible points to:
✅ Fruit of the Spirit (character & holiness)
✅ Fruit of making disciples (obedience, multiplication, and seeing lives transformed)
This is not a fancy studio—we&rsq...
Many churches today focus on meetings but often miss the life of discipleship that Jesus called us to. The Church Plus Vision is not about stopping Sunday gatherings but about adding the missing elements that bring transformation.
By making room for testimonies, obedience to the Word, and practical disciple-making, the DNA of the church can change. In this lesson, you will discover how to practically add these elements and see...
Christ Himself gave apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers—not as titles, but as gifts to equip His body. These gifts are not for a few “special” leaders but for the growth and unity of the whole church.
In this lesson, you will discover the true purpose of the five-fold ministry, how it works in practice, and why every gift is needed for the church to become mature and fruitful.
We are born again as spiritual infants, but we should not remain that way. With the right food at the right time, we can grow quickly—from infants, to young disciples, to mature parents who raise up the next generation. In this lesson, you will discover the different spiritual levels, why it is important to recognize them, and how to help people grow from one stage to the next. This understanding is vital if we want to see tr...
Jesus gave us the perfect model. He spent time with the Father, reached the one, mentored the three, discipled the twelve, empowered the 120, and touched the multitudes.
If we leave out any part of His model, we will miss the fullness of what God wants to do through us.

Live the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:
The right seed in the right ground will not produce without doing the Word. Listening alone, without action, brings no transformation. It is the doing of the Word that makes the seed grow into what it was created to be. This is an important lesson for every pastor and leader: no one can do this alone, which is why God has given us the five-fold ministry.

The right seed in the right ground creates an explosion of fruit—thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold.
But not everyone is the right ground. In this lesson, you will discover:
• Why the right ground is so important
• How to find it or help your church become it
• Why the seed cannot grow on its own—it needs the right ground to become what it was created to be
If you want to make disciples who multiply by making more disciples, you need the right seed. You begin with the seed and end up with many seeds—because the seed is the only thing that can multiply. As you will discover in Lesson 1, there is real power in the seed, and once you truly understand this, you will never be the same again.

Understanding the cross of Christ will is an eye-opener for many. You will see that when we talk about the cross, we often stop too early. Christ did not simply rise and then disappear; the cross is not only about the restoration of Christ, as He is the firstfruits.
It also points to the restoration of all of us when He returns. I truly love the cross, and I know we all do. However, we must understand that the cross is behind ...
We have now come to Jesus' teachings and His parables about the kingdom. If the church could just understand this, everything would change. Most live as if there is no wedding coming or don't understand the meaning of being prepared, having clothed themselves in fine linen.
This teaching opens up the parables of Jesus, making you fall in love with them and helping you to be ready for that day when the King has a wedding for Hi...
There has never been a message I have spoken that has made a difference in Christians like this one. Many heard it and, in their hearts, decided to become good soil. One year later, their lives were dramatically different, bearing much fruit, all because they began listening to this teaching.
"A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground,...

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
