What do you do when you’re in a wilderness season — fighting, praying, believing — and things still look dry and unchanged?

In this Walk It Out Wednesday teaching, Pastor Don Johnson revisits Jesus’ temptation in Matthew 4 to uncover how the wilderness is your launching pad to greatness — where the private fight prepares you for public success.

You’ll learn how your God-identity sustains you in adversity and why the wilderness is...

You don’t get to choose your wilderness, but you do get to choose how you fight in it. 

In “The Rumble in the Jungle,” Pastor Don Johnson shows us that the battles we face aren’t signs of weakness — they’re signs of promotion. 

Just like a boxer enters the ring focused on victory, Matthew 4 reveals Jesus stepped into the wilderness already equipped, already affirmed, and already undefeated. 

The space ...

Pastor Venshard Dobbins, Pastor Cora Jakes, Pastor Don Johnson, and Dr. Oscar Williams come together for a panel that’s going to shake something loose in your spirit. In this Walk It Out Wednesday service, they dive into the book of Exodus and unpack the powerful truth: Your isolation already has an expiration date, and God’s the one who set it. 

Your participation is required in your own deliverance. How are you actually...

Many of us struggle to ask for help. We find ourselves trapped in isolation that makes us believe no one fully understands our struggles. But Sarah Jakes Roberts delivered a liberating word: God never intended isolation to be a destination; it's meant to be a place of divine encounter.  

Too much isolation distorts our identity, causing us to forget who we are, what we believe, and where we're called. The woman with th...

Deep down, you know you were never meant to stay where you are. The ache you feel isn’t failure — it’s God stirring your spirit to move. In “The Nomadic Life,” Touré Roberts reveals that following Jesus means embracing movement — spiritually, mentally, and physically. 

Jesus Himself lived as a nomad, moving wherever the Father led. Likewise, we must release comfort, renew our minds, and follow God’s provision wherever it ...

Stop letting your flesh lead you into dangerous waters. This dynamic panel discussion with Dr. Valerie Crumpton, Pastor Venshard Dobbins, Pastor Cora Jakes, and Pastor Don Johnson follows up on Sunday’s message, “Get Out of Your Way.” Their conversation highlights how we have the tendency to sabotage our own spiritual growth. 

Pastor Johnson shares how Jesus in Gethsemane reveals that most of us have a hearing problem, no...

The very thing you’ve been praying for may require you to become the answer. In this transformative message, Sarah Jakes Roberts reminds us that we are often the answers to our own prayers, and God has always had us in His plan.  

Drawing from Matthew 26:37-46, where we find Jesus in His most relatable moment, sorrowful and uncertain in the Garden of Gethsemane, she distinguishes between God’s promise and our process...

Before glory comes groaning — but how do we remain steady while awaiting God’s answer? 

In this Walk It Out Wednesday teaching, Bishop T.D. Jakes takes us deeper into Romans 8 to show how God establishes believers in a position that can’t be shaken. Life may test your condition — pain, disappointment, pressure — but your position in Christ remains your anchor. You are seated with Him in heavenly places, covered and secure...

A sound is rising from the earth — a groan that carries both pain and promise. It’s the collective pain we have all endured as we’ve hoped and waited for God to make sense of our struggle. 

In “The Groan Before the Glory,” Bishop T.D. Jakes reveals that our suffering isn’t proof of God’s absence — it’s the soil of transformation. The Spirit groans within us, interceding for what words can’t touch and awakening the sons an...

Join Pastor Venshard Dobbins, Dr. Cynthia James, Pastor Don Johnson, Dr. Oscar Williams, and moderator Anthony Olds for an intimate panel discussion breaking down Touré Roberts’ sermon “Showdown Etiquette” — based on the biblical accounts in 1 Kings 17 and 18.

This Walk It Out Wednesday is for breakthrough. The panel explores how God uses showdowns to reveal His glory and move us to act boldly in our unique assignment.

Walk thr...

God is setting up your showdown. This is a climactic moment where God proves His sovereignty.  

Touré Roberts built upon his teaching from last week, reminding us that a showdown isn’t merely conflict — it’s a decisive encounter where you stop wrestling with circumstances and start witnessing God’s power.  

In 1 Kings 17, we see that Elijah arrives fully mature, fully certified by heaven. And that auth...

You may not be in a setback — you might be in a showdown. 

If you feel like you’ve let life push you around long enough, you may have entered a “Showdown Season” — a time when God is calling His people to stand in faith and reveal His power in the face of impossible odds. 

Drawing from 1 Kings 18:19–39, Pastor Touré unpacks Elijah’s confrontation with the prophets of Baal to show how God uses tension, pressure, and ...

This week, Walk It Out Wednesday brings together Dr. Valerie Crumpton, Pastor Venshard Dobbins, Pastor Don Johnson, and Dr. Oscar Williams to dive deeper into Pastor Touré Roberts’ two-part message “On the Other Side of Endurance.” This powerful panel unpacks the book of Matthew and its five discourses leading up to Matthew 24. The conversation centers on Jesus’ promise that if we remain steadfast in faith, we will be saved. &...

What do you do when the very thing God promised you seems to die in your arms? Our founding pastor Bishop T.D. Jakes dissects 2 Kings 4:18-27, teaching us about a wealthy woman whose son — her miracle — suddenly dies. She doesn’t bury him. She doesn’t call a doctor. She lays him in the room of the prophet who prophesied to her womb.

Bishop Jakes walks us through this powerful text. One woman’s oil kept flowing as long as there we...

What do you do when it feels like your prayers aren’t breaking through? 

In this week’s Walk It Out Wednesday, Sarah Jakes Roberts revisits her message “Break the Barrier” and goes deeper into what true repentance looks like in our everyday lives. She unpacks the barriers that block our sound — shame, pride, ignoring conviction, clinging to old identities — and shows us how humility positions us for revival. 

Th...

What do we do when life’s pain silences us and chokes our praise?

In “Break the Barrier,” Sarah Jakes Roberts challenges us to push back against darkness by releasing the sound heaven cannot ignore.

In 2 Chronicles 7, we see how God responds when His people humble themselves, pray, and lift their voices. The Holy Spirit helps us interpret what we’re exposed to, cut through the noise, and declare God’s truth with power.

But too...

We are God’s change agents in the earth. During this week’s Walk It Out Wednesday, Touré Roberts takes us deeper into his Sunday word, “The Power to Change,” and reminds us that breakthrough is less about what happens around us and more about being spiritually revived. 

He also explores our heart health and the need for our faith to be activated so we can walk in the power of God. He breaks down how God’s word flows like wa...

On Celebration Sunday and the first day of our 10-Day Corporate Fast, Pastor Touré Roberts brings a powerful word from Proverbs 13:12 on “The Power to Change.” Scripture reminds us that “hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.”

This message calls us to recognize that every anointed person is carrying something — and to step into breakthrough, we must make room for what God wants to do...
