Episodes

  1. The Life of a Prophet

    Brother James interviews Prophet Jeremy Caris. Jeremy Caris is the founder and president of Caris Ministries. Since he is called as a prophet and gifted as a teacher, much of his focus involves equipping believers to hear, know, and follow God in their own daily experience. He teaches the...

  2. Paid For In Blood

    In order to receive salvation and forgiveness of sins,you must know the one who paid for it all for you and me.

  3. The Promise of Hope

    Hear a powerful story of redemption of a man who was facing a life sentence only to be rescued by the power of God. Charged as a criminal and redeemed as a mighty man of God! You definitely know that there is a God full of mercy and grace.

  4. The Recovery Life

    Hear from a man of God that has over 40 years of ministry from a divine encounter with the living God! He was exposed to Christ represented by over 40 different nations gathered around the Lords Table and brought back this revelation to a body of people in West Tennessee.

  5. I am my own god!

    In this day of high speed technology and innovation we seem to get more creative in how we can glorify ourselves. Many people can't differentiate between healthy self esteem and idolizing their own selves. We are doing everything that our nature enjoys at the peril of losing our souls! We are...

  6. Letters to the Elders

    It is worth noting in passing that the office of priest, so prominent in the Old Testament, is not taken over by the early church. Prophets and elders (cf. Ezekiel 7:26) have their counterparts in the church and these titles are used. But there is no official counterpart to the priest, for, as…

  7. The Resurrected Life, Part 2: (Death to Life)

    The Gospel is so much more than a self-help message. Without Christ, we weren’t just bad. We weren’t unchurched. We didn’t need a "little" help. We were dead. And being dead is a huge problem. Dead people can’t do a thing to help themselves. Not one thing. So the Gospel begins with really bad...

  8. The Resurrected Life

    Christian, do you know the power of the resurrection of Christ? Are your thoughts those of one who is risen with Him, set on things above where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God? Are you, as being raised up with Him, dead to sin, dead to the pleasures, to the greatness, to the fading…

  9. The God Fellow

    All the believers in Christ have the privilege to be God’s fellow workers, those who work the work of the Lord(see 1 Cor. 16:10) and even abound in the work of the Lord (1 Cor. 15:58). The way to do this is not by seeing the need to do something for God and going to do it right away, but by first...

  10. Devil's Pie

    The Bible describes mankind in much the same way. Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.” This tendency for sin is something that every person has.

  11. Living The Message

    We are a unique people formed by the life-changing message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ—in effect, a worldwide message tribe. But if we are recipients of a pay-it-forward-type message, then that makes us all messengers! Every believer is, therefore, a messenger and a missionary. And Christianity...

  12. Prayer Windows, Prayer Doors, Prayer Gates

    Prayer is seriously powerful business. So often, though, we treat it as a perfunctory task to be checked off our daily to-do list. How can we shift our attitudes from boredom and obligation to joy and expectation? The Lord always inclines His ear to His children. Learn the foundational principles...

  13. Severing Strongholds By Binding The Strongman

    If we want to accomplish anything in either the natural or spiritual realms, we must engage in spiritual warfare(Ephesians 6:12). In Mark 3:27 Jesus said, “No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.” When...

  14. Self Worship: The Religion of Self

    Self-love is the very hallmark of this age, and all the others that follow are results of it. It is this selfishness, broadcast at us incessantly, that causes men to be proud and blasphemers, traitors and boasters, unthankful, and unholy because everything is inward. "Me first, and if I have…

  15. Setting The Captives Free with Pastor Rene Llanos

    Pastor Rene Llanos and his wife Acenet has been in ministry since 1991. They are church planters currently serving as presidents of House of Restoration Ministry with churches in Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Florida. They have served as missionaries to the Dominican Republic where they built an...

  16. Choosing The Will Of God

    Our God is good. When He asks us to obey Him, choosing to do His will even when it is not our will, He is giving us the opportunity for blessing. The will of God always leads to a happy place. The ultimate example of this is Jesus in the garden before His crucifixion.

  17. What is the Will Of God

    God's will can refer to His perfect plan known since the beginning of time, God's teachings for all people, God's specific desires for a community of people, or God's unique plan for our individual lives. God knows all that will take place, has commanded us to follow certain teachings, and leads...

  18. Modeling The Message

    Having a tough time modeling God's message? Feel unappreciated? Misunderstood? A little foolish? Ridiculed? So it goes, pilgrim. Rose gardens and pillow fights went out with the flood. These are rugged days. Without much padding in the seats or protection from the wind. It takes two things to…

  21. The Net Breaker

    The breaker is come up - He who is to give them deliverance, and lead them out on the way of their return. He who takes down the hurdles, or makes a gap in the wall or hedge, to permit them to pass through. This may apply to those human agents that shall permit and order their return. And God is…

  22. Living The Body Life

    If we allow the Lord to touch us through His Body concerning our demeanor, attitude, function, and measure in the meetings, we may have a way to go on with Him. We need to come to the Lord personally and let His light– in His time and in His way – shine on us concerning our living in the church...

  23. Hide Until The Right Time

    You’ll find this all through the Scriptures in the lives of God’s hidden servants: God hid Joseph in prison before he came to the palace. He hid Moses in the desert for a third of his life before he led the people out of Egypt. God hid David in the mountains, running in and out of caves from Saul...

  24. The Newness of God

    The whole of Romans 6:4 says, "We have been buried therefore with Him through baptism into death that as Christ was raised from among the dead through the glory of the Father, even so, we also should walk in newness of life." The Greek word translated "that" here can be rendered "in order that"...

  25. Do This One Thing

    The Lord, who is the believer's light, is the strength of his life; not only by whom but in whom he lives and moves. In God let us strengthen ourselves. The gracious presence of God, his power, his promise, his readiness to hear prayer, the witness of his Spirit in the hearts of his people; these...

  26. Giving Up My Position 2 Get God's Perspective

    You know that God has something good in store for you. You don't believe he intends you to live a life of painful drudgery in which each day is a total drag. After all, the Bible is chock full of passages about joy. While this certainly doesn't mean that every single day is a parade and circus…

  27. The Battle Of Believing

    One of the most important things in our lives is the control of our minds. Our thoughts are powerful. They can harm us or do us good. The Bible says, “As [a person] thinks … so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). Many people have troubled minds. There’s a story told in the eighth chapter of Ezekiel about...

  28. Not In My Family

    For most of us, the place where we first met the Christian faith was at home. Maybe it was Dad telling Bible stories, or Mom getting dressed for church, or maybe Grandma telling about how it was when she was younger, in a day when faith was a bigger part of life even for those who didn't have any...

  29. Making Disciples Releasing Ministers with Pastor Anthony Daley

    Hear the powerful story of a man born in Middletown Ohio and raised in Indian Mound TN has literally stepped on several continents bringing the message of transformation and deliverance to many. This shows us there is purpose for the person that dares to follow God with his whole heart.

  30. Spiritual Algorithms: The Word of God

    When we become Christians, we enter into a relationship with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit that will cause us to grow. With the power of the Holy Spirit, we are called to become more like Jesus and to become more holy. It is this spiritual growth that becomes a birthmark of our faith!

  31. Saved with No Flavor: The Tasteless Christian

    “In today’s world, the Church needs the qualities of salt. To the Christian of today, Jesus tells us to be the “salt of the earth.” In fact,in Matthew 5:13, He says, “You are the salt of the earth. When Christians live too close to the world, they lose their flavor (power) to help and to heal, to...

  32. The Supernatural Man Part 3

    Your spirit is so BIG we had to cover the Supernatural Man in three episodes! This broadcast should see your understanding to what it is to be a Supernatural being and the victory you will experience if you choose to let your spirit be the Super in your life!

  33. The Supernatural Man

    We are not supposed to be normal. We are supposed to be naturally Supernatural! Take a journey on this broadcast as we open up how you can live an uncommon life by the power of your Supernatural self!

  34. The Point Of Pressure

    When a person trusts in Christ in faith, whether they realize it or not, they have been enrolled in the “school of faith.” Consequently, as Christians, we never know what may happen next because God, who works all things together for good, uses our trials as tools to promote spiritual growth and...

  35. The Supernatural Man Part 2

    Every normal human being is endowed with common sense, a kind of judgement that serves him to make ordinary decisions for his own good and welfare. By contrast, supernatural faith is not granted to everybody indiscriminately, since it is a special gift which Christ has obtained by his death in...

  36. The Vicissitudes of Life: Will you stay with God?

    When you worry, you are choosing to be mastered by your circumstances instead of by the truth of God. The vicissitudes and trials of life pale in comparison to the greatness of salvation. Jesus wants you to realize it doesn’t make sense to believe God can save you from eternal hell, but not help...

  37. The Return of The Leper

    Our American churches are truly at a crossroads. For the last 40 years or so we’ve been much more like the Pharisees and priests, excluding and marginalizing entire groups of people that we thought God is angry with. But little by little though, the Gospel is at work, in stories like this one,...

  38. Fathers and Sons

    Fathers are supposed to bless their sons and not curse them. Fathers are supposed to raise up their sons and not tear them down. Fathers give sons two main things for life. Identity and Inheritance. Many issues facing men today is the absence of fathering which has created an orphan spirit and...

  39. Unblind My Mind

    Therefore, by the mercy of God, we do not lose heart. But we have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways. We refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God’s word, but by the open statement of the truth, we would commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God. And even if our...

  40. I Won't Be Defiled

    When He had called the multitude to Himself, He said to them, 'Hear and understand: not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.' Then His disciples came and said to Him, 'Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this…

  41. Soul Issues

    So if you want to fight for the soul that it not be destroyed, and if you want to magnify the glory of God so that it not be belittled, and if you want to say yes to the weight and importance of God in this God-neglecting modern world, then see yourself as an exile from heaven and focus your...

  42. What's On The Table?

    Here at the Table, we hear Jesus’s voice, have our Savior’s ear, and commune with His body. We receive afresh His gospel, respond in faith, and knit our hearts together in the bread and cup we share. And in doing so, we look not only to the past and remember what He’s done, and not only to the...

  43. The Enemies of Success" The Psychology of the Prosperous" Part 2

    Prosperity begins in your spirit. There are many avenues to being prosperous, but to be prosperous the way God intends is to do it His way. Their is a mind set that comes with a prosperous person regardless of what condition or circumstance they are faced with.

  44. The Priest in The Pew

    There is a responsibility for everyone who receives Christ in their spirit. The common notion is one person preaching to many in the pews. However God's original intention was not the way we practice. Everyone is supposed to have the opportunity to speak forth Christ in the capacity of what they...

  45. The Seed of Separation

    We are told in Ephesians 4:24 that we must “put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.” One of the reasons that biblical separation is not seen or even desired by many is that the New Birth is not viewed in its fullness. What we mean by this is that the New...

  46. “The Enemies of Success: The Psychology of the Prosperous, Part 1

    The issue of suffering and prosperity in life and their relationship to the righteousness of individuals is one that is both important and complex. What can I expect if I choose to diligently follow God's will in my life? Will my righteousness result in more or less suffering? Will it result in...

  47. The Recovery Life with Elder Leon White

    This fellowship began in Paris TN in 1999, in a small conference room at the Hampton Inn. That small conference room evolved into a 16,000 square foot facility sitting on 2.5 acres that is now known as "CIP" Church In Paris. Pastor Leon and Veronica White are a team that have served in the…

  48. Religion Will Kill You... The Kingdom Will Save You

    Every other religion in the world is based on man's efforts to reach God. These world religions teach that man must somehow do righteous deeds or perform religious service in order to become good enough for salvation. In order to be saved a person must pray a certain number of times, in a certain...

  49. There is Room For You

    The Bible teaches that Jesus has made peace between sinners and God the Father through THE BLOOD OF HIS CROSS. Notice that Jesus didn't make peace through “the cross”; but rather, through “the blood of His cross.” IT WAS THE BLOOD! Jesus shed His blood while on the cross, and then that physical,...

  50. Give Me Mercy

    God is known to be a God of mercy and grace. Understanding mercy is often difficult for people as we tend to be a generation of “I’ll get him for that” and “I hope they get what they deserve.” Many have developed a nature of harsh criticism and want others to get what they have coming to them and...
