Your Church Is Called To Be a Watchtower - James Aladiran - Christ Alive 25th Anniversary
Most of us believe prayer matters. We just don’t live like our city depends on it. On its 25th anniversary, Christ Alive Church invited James Aladiran to release a prophetic word — and it wasn’t really a sermon. It was a picture. This church is called to be a watchtower over its region. Walking...

Recalibrate Your Hunger - James Aladiran - Why You Don’t Feel Like Praying
Most of us want to pray more. We just don’t feel like it. Prayer feels dry, worship feels hard, and the hunger for God we used to have has gone quiet. In “Recalibrate Your Hunger,” James Aladiran makes the case that our appetite has been feeding on everything except God. He tells the story of...

The Unusual Part #03 - Pastor LJ Johnson - How to Have Joy When Life Isn’t Getting Easier
Peace and joy are the number one thing people say they want. So why is it so rare to meet someone who actually has them, even in church? A lot of us are praying, serving, and showing up, and still running on empty. In “Unusual Joy,” Pastor LJ Johnson opens Philippians 4, a letter the apostle Paul...

Are You Entertained by What Jesus Died to Forgive? - Mark Ivey - The Unusual Part #02
We say the name of Jesus is powerful. But how we treat that name the rest of the week shapes what it means to us when we speak it. In Part 2 of The Unusual, Mark Ivey teaches on honoring the name of Jesus — and on the healing power that name still carries today. He asks a question that’s hard to...
-
Why Familiar Faith Kills the Miraculous - Austin - The Unusual Part #01
What if the biggest thing keeping us from experiencing the supernatural isn’t that God stopped moving — but that we’ve stopped expecting Him to? As we open our new series, The Unusual, Austin makes the case that we can believe in Jesus and still carry a version of Him that’s too small. He starts...

Praise Is Not Optional - Brian Barcelona - Christ Alive Church
Most of us treat praise as optional — something for the “hyped-up” people, a warm-up before the real thing. Guest speaker Brian Barcelona says the opposite: praise was never optional, and boredom is the greatest tragedy of Christianity. Brian opens with the story that changed how he sees worship…

Save The Lost Part #11 - Pastor Mark Ivey - The Problem Was Never the Harvest
Most of us assume the reason more people aren’t coming to God is that the harvest is small — that people just aren’t interested anymore. Sunday’s message says the opposite. The harvest was never the problem. The problem has always been getting enough of us to actually put our hand in and do...
-
Save The Lost Part #10 - Pastor Mark Ivey - Why God Waits for You to Pray
Most of us have someone we love who’s far from God, and we don’t know what to do about it. Sunday’s message is about the one thing every one of us can do: get in between that person and God in prayer. The Bible calls it intercession, and it’s simpler than it sounds — it just means standing in the...
-
Why You Can Sit in Church for Years and Still Not Be Free - Pastor Mark Ivey - Save The Lost Part #09
You can love the Lord, come to church for years, and still be quietly stuck on something you can’t seem to get free from. Sunday’s message makes the case that God intends far more for you than that — and that the one thing you actually need to encounter Him isn’t knowledge or having it all…

God Wants to Encounter, Empower, and Set You Free - Micah Smith & Austin Minor - Kids Camp & Youth Retreat 2026
There was no sermon this Sunday — just testimony after testimony. This past week, over 300 kids and students went to kids camp and youth retreat, and they came back changed. They didn’t just sit through songs and a talk; they encountered God. Across the stories, three things became clear. God…

Save The Lost Part #08 - Pastor Mark Ivey - Your Weakness Is Your Strength
Most of us are quietly waiting for the weakness to go away — the health thing, the money thing, the relationship, the habit — before we’ll really do anything for God. Sunday’s message makes the case that the very thing you feel chained to might be where God’s power shows up strongest. In “Your...
-
Save The Lost Part #07 - Pastor Mark Ivey - Perfection Not Required
Most of us have a quiet excuse for not saying anything about Jesus: I’ll do it once I’ve got my own life together. But that day never seems to come — and Sunday’s message makes the case that it was never the requirement in the first place. In “Perfection Not Required,” Pastor Mark Ivey walks...

When Did You Last Weep Over Someone Who Doesn’t Know Jesus? - Austin Minor - Save The Lost Part #06
If you live in the Bible Belt, almost everyone around you has already heard about Jesus. So how do you reach people who’ve heard the gospel a hundred times but never surrendered to it? Austin Minor’s answer starts with barbecue. He’d been told about a restaurant in Atlanta for a year before a...
-
God Isn’t Finished Writing Your Story - Barbara Potter - Save The Lost Part #05
Most of us are reading one page and assuming we know how the book ends. Barbara Potter has been part of Christ Alive Church since before there was a church — 25 years. On Sunday she told the story of how she got here: the move she didn’t understand, the years of waiting, going back to school at…

Now What? | @LJ Johnson

Heal The Home Part #01 - Mark Ivey - The shocking story of 100,000 homes poisoned by Chinese drywall
Is your home rotting from the inside? In this week’s message, Pastor kicks off our brand new series — Heal the Home — and asks a question most of us avoid: Is there leprosy in your house? Using the shocking true story of over 100,000 homes poisoned by Chinese drywall, he walks us through…

Heal The Home Part 2
What is shaping your home right now? This message confronts something most people don’t think about — your home is already being discipled. The question is by what? In this week of Heal the Home, we talk about restoring the family altar and why God designed your home to be the primary place of...

Heal The Home Part 3 | Austin Minor
In this message, we look at the patterns that show up in families again and again and what God calls us to do about them. From Numbers 13, we see how fear, avoidance, and unbelief caused an entire generation to pass battles down instead of overcoming them. And the truth is… that still happens...
