God has opened the windows of Heaven to pour blessings out upon us. What has our response been, and what will it be? Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how being thankful and giving a public expression to our gratitude is more than just a platitude; it’s a commandment in Scripture. He cites several examples from the Bible that show how humility leads to gratitude. Choosing to cultivate these character traits leads us closer to God and prepares our hearts to carry out His purposes in our generation.

God Is Moving - Let's Join Him
If you sense that God is moving and causing changes in the world around you, let your response be, “I want to move with You, God.” In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson helps us recognize when God is moving and how we can engage with that movement. Blessings come with following God in new ways, but choosing to ignore or reject His invitations comes with consequences. Pastor Allen discusses several characteristics that take place when God is in motion and offers actions we can take to be awakened to what He is doing and the important role we each play in His unfolding plan.
Kingdom Participation
It’s increasingly important for the Church to understand the authority that’s ours, the assignments we’ve been given, and how to be bold, courageous, and active participants in God’s Kingdom. Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how to become more aware of the Kingdom of God and the components necessary to participate in it. Following God begins with being willing to change, listening to the Lord, and spending time meditating on His Word. Pastor Allen offers encouragement and insight to help.
God Is Moving - New Heroes
In Acts 19, seven different things happened to show that God was changing people’s hearts, and we can see many of those same events taking place today. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers biblical insight to help us recognize when God is moving. He also discusses our need to reconsider the heroes in our lives. The people we typically consider to be heroes—celebrities, sports stars, and actors—often lead lives that point people away from God, not toward Him. We need to be wise about who we surround ourselves with and who we follow, because they help define the trajectory of our lives.
