Many of us say we want to follow hard after God—but Dr. Tony Evans asks an important question: are we seeking God Himself, or just a quick escape from trouble? Learn why pursuing His presence above all else leads to lasting spiritual fulfillment.
Like electricity flowing through a power line, God’s grace is meant to flow through us to others. Dr. Tony Evans explains what to do if something’s interrupting that flow and how restoring peace with God brings harmony to every relationship.
A car without an engine can look good—but it’s not going anywhere. Dr. Tony Evans explains that the same is true of a believer without the power of the Holy Spirit. Discover how to live fueled by divine strength that propels you forward in faith.
When your heart feels broken or your spirit feels crushed, patience is the last thing on your mind. Dr. Tony Evans shows how God uses even our painful seasons for His purposes—and why relief isn’t necessarily the first step toward restoration.
When life feels like a daily struggle, it’s natural to wonder when God will finally step in. Dr. Tony Evans explains why the Lord’s timing doesn’t always match ours—and how perseverance through pain strengthens our passion for Him.
Most of us think we’re giving God our best when we sacrifice our time or treasure for Him. But are we holding back? Dr. Tony Evans explains why genuine spiritual passion is often revealed in those testing moments when obedience costs us something dear.
We know what physical hunger feels like—but spiritual hunger can be harder to recognize. Dr. Tony Evans explains how God uses our emptiness to reignite our passion for Him and grow a deeper appetite for the things of the Spirit.
Spiritual drift doesn’t just lead to distance from God… it can lead to our defeat. Dr. Tony Evans walks us through one of Israel’s darkest moments and explains why restoring our relationship with the Lord is often the first step toward real victory.
When God’s people lose sight of His authority, it doesn’t take long for false gods to fill the void. Dr. Tony Evans traces how quiet compromise in one home grew into widespread idolatry in ancient Israel—and what that pattern can teach us today about standing firm in truth.
Sometimes we can drift so far from God that it feels like He’s left us altogether. But Dr. Tony Evans explains that even when we’ve lost our strength, our sight, or our way, it’s never too late to turn back to the Lord. This powerful lesson from the life of Samson reminds us that God’s mercy is always within reach.
Sometimes the Lord starts working in our lives long before we realize it—arranging circumstances and setting us apart for His purpose. Dr. Tony Evans reminds us that God’s power isn’t based on our perfection but on His unstoppable purpose and plan.
Pride can divide families, destroy communities, and even bring nations to their knees. Dr. Tony Evans explains how acknowledging God as our only Source opens the door to restoration and how His plans often begin in unexpected ways.
When a nation drifts from God, confusion and conflict soon follow. Dr. Tony Evans looks at how God used Israel’s disobedience to accomplish His purposes—and how genuine repentance can always lead to mercy.
It doesn’t take an earthquake to shake a foundation—a slow, steady shift over time will do the trick. Dr. Tony Evans reveals how success can lead to spiritual compromise and how letting God rule our decisions keeps us standing firm.
Sometimes God’s call comes when life feels impossible. Dr. Tony Evans explains how God equips ordinary people to do extraordinary things, and how faith in the small things prepares us for life’s biggest battles.
Every time God’s people turned to idols, they lost their freedom—but when they cried out, He raised up a deliverer. Dr. Tony Evans shows how God’s mercy can reverse years of defeat and how He often works through the most unlikely people with the simplest tools.
We live in a world where “truth” has become whatever people decide it is. Dr. Tony Evans explains how that same mindset once led Israel into spiritual compromise and cultural collapse—and why returning to God’s truth is still the only way to reverse the consequences.
Sometimes we cling to things God has already called finished. Dr. Tony Evans shows how faith and obedience help God’s people move forward when foundations shift—turning His promises from something within our reach to something firmly in our hands.

Thank you, Dr. Evans. This month marks 15 years since our oldest Son passed away and I still struggle. 💙🙏
this was fiyyyyah. 🔥👌💯
excited for this series!
If we continue in God's word, we will see God's miraculous power break forth in our situation. Hallelujah! ... very powerful word, and so clearly taught. Thank you Pastor Evans.
This is key. thank you. Tony.
So many things wrong with this message. which is a shame, because I really love this pastor. I will be praying that he be shown the truth. In a dream, through a prophet, or where it really matters... Scripture. man is not immortal. God kicked Adam out of the garden "lest he reach his hand out and become immortal". God alone is immortal. We only get it through faith in Jesus, but actually not until we eat from the tree of life. Anyone reading this that's interested, I can site many many scriptures to prove all of this. not just one (Matthew) that kind of sounds like eternal torment. We cannot even wrap our minds around eternity. Its too long for us. Why wouldn't God say it flat out many times that we would be tortured for ever? And BTW over and over and over hundreds of times scripture says we parish after this life in hell. After our punishment. However long that is. Each man has his own punishment based on works of this life. Some will be beaten with many lashes, some with few. Not en
wonderful analogy with the elephant! Amen! #Freedom
Thank you for your clear, biblical teaching today Dr Evans. It is so good hearing a man speak so passionately about the role of a man in this world that lately seems more interested in emasculating men than promoting them to be the men that God calls them to be.
Thank you for your inspirational teaching today, Dr. Evans. It makes such a refreshing change to hear a man stand up for the role of REAL men in this world. Thank you for reminding us that it is who GOD says that a man is, that defines his role in this world, not who culture says that we are. Just like it's God who sets the role of my fellow sisters in this faith experience called life, not culture.
Thank you for your powerful teaching today, Dr. Evans. It's time for the REAL men to stand up and claim what's rightfully ours in the Kingdom. Society will try and define us but we are NOT what the world says we are. As men, we are who our Bibles tell us that God has been saying that we are since He created us!
Thank you Dr. Evans for your powerful teaching today. As a former people pleaser, I can vouch for all that Tony said. It's utterly exhausting to try and please everyone until you realise, like I did eventually, that it is only God's opinion of you that really holds any weight in your life.
Boom!!!!!

Amazing how we are living the bible
Powerful
Thank you for your teaching today Pastor. As someone who has been delivered from various emotional strongholds over the years, I can testify to the truth of Tony's words. I found that the less I looked to God the more I convinced myself of my need to meet my own needs. Yet upon deliverance, I realised the truth of Phil 4:13; that it's GOD'S ability to meet my needs that counts, not MY ability to meet my needs.
Thank you, Pastor for your encouraging words today. Let us remember that we can call on Jesus any time we lose sight of our peace that we have by keeping our minds fixed on things above.
Awesome teaching! It may have saved my marriage!!!
Amen!!!!!!
Amen......
