Is America experiencing revival—and how can we recognize a genuine move of God?Jessi Green sits down with author and revivalist Larry Sparks to discuss what God is doing across the nation. Exploring the differences between renewal, revival, awakening, and reformation; why believers shouldn’t become “revival critics”; and how churches can faithfully pursue both the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit.Discussing the signs of a church in revival, the importance of prayer, revival in the marketplace, and why every believer was created for an adventure with God.

Waiting does not mean God has forgotten you. It may be the very place where He is forming your faith.In this message from Genesis 11–12, Pastor Parker Green follows Abraham from Haran—the “in-between” place—toward a promise he could not yet see. Abraham obeyed without having every detail, made serious mistakes along the journey, and still experienced the grace and faithfulness of God.This message is for anyone navigating transition, waiting for a promise, or wondering whether it is too late to obey God. The goal is not simply to arrive. It is to keep believing, remain focused, and faithfully lay a foundation for the generations coming behind you.If this message encourages you, share it with someone learning to trust God in the waiting.SCRIPTURES REFERENCEDGenesis 11:27–32 — Terah’s family settles in HaranGenesis 12:1–20 — God calls Abraham; Abraham travels to Canaan and EgyptGenesis 16 — Abraham, Sarah and HagarGenesis 17 — Abram and Sarai receive their covenant namesHebrews 11:6 — Without faith it is impossible to please GodHebrews 11:8–12 — Abraham obeys without knowing where he is goingLuke 1:26–38 — Mary receives the promiseLuke 24:13–35 — The road to Emmaus2 Corinthians 5:21 — The righteousness of God in ChristEphesians 3:20 — More than we can ask or imagineGalatians 5:22–23 — The fruit of the Holy SpiritPlan Your Visit to SALT Church:https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry:https://www.saltchurches.com/givingSubscribe:  / saltchurches  Subscribe @saltchurchNC Connect with Parker + Jessi Green:Instagram Parker /   / parkerrichardgreen  Instagram Jessi /  / jessi.green  Websites https://www.saltchurches.com/https://www.jessi-green.com/https://www.saturateglobal.com/#prayer #bible #biblestudy #saltchurch #revival #parkergreen #jessigreen

Following Jesus was never meant to be a private, isolated faith.In this episode of the SALT Church Podcast, Angel Barrientos and Seth Prevatte unpack what biblical discipleship actually looks like, from unbroken fellowship and obedience to Jesus, to life in the local church, spiritual maturity, evangelism, correction, sacrifice, and making disciples who make disciples.They discuss why online teaching cannot replace embodied Christian community, how the Great Commission includes teaching people to obey Jesus, and why genuine discipleship should transform the way we love God, serve our families, and live every part of our lives.If this conversation encourages you, share it with someone who wants to grow deeper in their walk with Jesus.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 – Diet Coke and Introductions 0:53 – Why Discipleship Matters 1:29 – More Than 1,000 Salvations in Wilmington 2:05 – Ten People Meet Jesus at UNCW 3:48 – The Hunger of New Believers 6:04 – Recovering Your First Love 7:01 – What SALT Kinship Groups Are 8:23 – What Biblical Discipleship Means 10:34 – Believing in Jesus vs. Following Jesus 12:15 – The Danger of Lukewarm Christianity 14:33 – Can You Follow Jesus Alone? 17:19 – Evangelism and the Great Commission 19:31 – Becoming a Disciple-Maker 23:03 – Stages of Spiritual Maturity 26:27 – Discipling People to Look at Jesus 29:09 – Spiritual Infants, Children, and Parents 32:09 – Maturity Requires Sacrifice 33:23 – The Cost of Discipleship 36:01 – How to Find Someone to Disciple You 38:51 – What Should Your Spiritual Legacy Be? 42:31 – Closing and InvitationSCRIPTURES REFERENCEDMatthew 28:18–20 — Make disciples and teach them to obey Jesus John 14:15 — Love for Jesus produces obedience John 15 — Abiding in Jesus and bearing fruit 1 John 2:12–14 — Children, young people, and fathers in spiritual maturity Luke 14:25–33 — Counting the cost of discipleship Plan Your Visit to SALT Church: https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry: https://www.saltchurches.com/givingFollow SALT Church:   / saltchurches  Subscribe: @saltchurchNC#discipleship #followingJesus #Christiancommunity #evangelism #saltchurch #spiritualgrowth

A thousand tabs open in your mind. A heart trying to protect itself. A life that feels scattered. Where do you find a place to belong?Pastor Jessi Green teaches from Genesis 11 and Ephesians 1-2, connecting the Tower of Babel with our search for security, control, and a name for ourselves. Babel’s story becomes a mirror for the towers we build when fear shapes our plans. The good news is that Jesus has already made a way to the Father. Through His blood, those who were far off are brought near, made alive by grace, and united in Christ. Share this message with someone who feels scattered or needs encouragement to find their belonging and purpose in Jesus.SCRIPTURES REFERENCEDGenesis 11:1–9 - Babel, self-made security, and the scattering of the peopleGenesis 12:2 - God promises to make Abraham a blessingJohn 3:3–8 - Jesus teaches Nicodemus about being born againRomans 10:9–13 - Believing, confessing Jesus as Lord, and calling on HimRomans 6:3–4 - Baptism and walking in newness of lifeEphesians 1:7–10 - Redemption through Christ’s blood and unity in HimEphesians 2:4–10 - Made alive with Christ and saved by grace through faithEphesians 2:13 - Those who were far away are brought near by Christ’s bloodRomans 5:8 - Christ died for us while we were still sinnersMatthew 28:19–20 - The Great CommissionLuke 1:37 - Nothing is impossible with GodJohn 15:7 - Abiding in Jesus and prayer2 Corinthians 10:5 - Taking every thought captiveIsaiah 54:17 - No weapon formed against God’s people will prosperPlan Your Visit to SALT Church:https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry:https://www.saltchurches.com/givingSubscribe and Stay Connected:YouTube: @saltchurchNCInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/saltchurches/Connect with Parker + Jessi Green:Parker: https://www.instagram.com/parkerrichardgreen/Jessi: https://www.instagram.com/jessi.green/Websites:https://www.saltchurches.com/https://www.jessi-green.com/https://www.saturateglobal.com/#TowerOfBabel #Genesis11 #JessiGreen #SALTChurch #Jesus #Gospel #BibleStudy

Would your life look different today if you were ready for Jesus to return?Pastor Parker Green walks through Genesis 6–9, following Noah from the call to build the ark through the flood, God’s covenant, and the brokenness that remains afterward. Noah’s story becomes a challenge to obey what God has already said, stay faithful when fruit takes time,and keep Jesus at the center.Drawing on Jesus’ words in Luke 17 and Matthew 24, Parker brings readiness into everyday life: share the gospel, love your neighbor, forgive, and care for the people around you. The service closes with Pastor Seth’s invitation to receive a new heart through Jesus and remember His sacrifice in communion.Share this message with someone who needs encouragement to stay faithful, keeploving, and refuse to quit.
