    When God Changes Your Assignment (doubt & prophetic confirmation)

    What do you do when God changes your assignment—and everything feels uncertain? In this episode, evangelist Jono Gates shares the story of a prophetic encounter with the Holy Spirit that confirmed his calling during a season of doubt, fear, and spiritual weariness. What began as a simple meeting turned into an unmistakable moment where God reaffirmed His direction—and released “the anointing to not quit.” We talk honestly about: Doubt, fear, and spiritual wearinessProphetic confirmation and discernmentLeaving security to follow God’s callObedience when doors don’t open right awayFinancial fear and trusting God as providerEvangelism without pressure or performanceWhy healthy skepticism must mature into discernment Jono opens up about insecurity, perseverance, and how God confirms His voice—not just once, but over time—through Scripture, community, and unmistakable encounters.

    Breaking The False Agreements That Sabotage Your Calling

    Success isn’t the enemy — idolatry is. In this episode, I unpack the false agreements we unknowingly make with success, achievement, and ambition— agreements that slowly sabotage calling, identity, peace, and intimacy with God.  We don’t fall into idolatry overnight. We drift into it through quiet agreements: “I am loved when I look strong.” “I’m safe if I accumulate more.” “My destiny depends on my effort.” These inner contracts become spiritual traps disguised as ambition.They look like excellence, but they weigh you down and exhaust you.. Today we confront three agreements: Image — I need approval to feel worthy Insulation — I need control and resources to feel safe Independence — I must be strong enough to succeed on my own And then we break them — with repentance, truth, and practice. If you’ve ever chased a dream, reached a goal, and still felt empty…If you’ve ever feared people’s opinions more than God’s whisper…If you’ve ever trusted hustle more than His Spirit… This episode is for you. Break the agreement. Return to the Father. Build a calling, not an identity.

    God Spoke This to Me in 1992… and I Just Realized It Came True

    Have you ever wondered if God is still working behind the scenes in your life? In this video, I share a story about a word God spoke to me back in 1992—and how it came to pass over 30 years later. What seemed forgotten turned out to be confirmation that God’s timing is perfect, His plans never fail, and He’s closer than you think. Through this story, I unpack five powerful truths about trusting God’s purpose, surrendering your plans, and resting in His timing when life doesn’t look like you expected. If you’ve ever felt overlooked, impatient, or discouraged while waiting on a promise, this message will remind you that God hasn’t forgotten you—He’s writing something beautiful behind the scenes. If you’re in a waiting season or questioning what God is doing in your story, this is for you.

    Forrest Frank, The Dove Awards, And The Idols We Don't Want To Confront

    The recent controversy around Forrest Frank and the Dove Awards has exposed something much deeper than a debate about the Christian music industry—it’s revealed what’s happening inside our own hearts. In this episode, I share three lessons about conviction, humility, and purity of heart that every believer needs to hear: -Why we naturally defend ourselves instead of letting the Holy Spirit examine us.-How a symbol of success doesn’t automatically mean a symptom of pride.-Why purity of heart is an ongoing process that requires daily surrender. If you’ve ever wrestled with your motives, battled pride, or wondered how to stay focused on Jesus in a culture obsessed with recognition and platform, this video will challenge and encourage you.

    When Obedience Feels Like Going Backwards (Why God Makes You Wait)

    Are you in a season of waiting on God? Maybe you’ve prayed, obeyed, and stepped out in faith, but instead of moving forward it feels like you’re going backwards. You’re not alone. Many of our faith heroes in the Bible—Abraham, Joseph, Moses, David, Paul, even Jesus—went through long periods of waiting before God’s promises came to pass. In this video, I’m sharing 5 things God does in your life while you wait—because waiting on God is not wasted time. Waiting is part of God’s timing, God’s testing, and God’s preparation for your calling. If you feel tired of delays, discouraged by obstacles, or frustrated that the dream hasn’t happened yet, this message will give you fresh hope and courage. Don’t give up in the delay. Waiting on the Lord is where He does His deepest work in you.

    Have you ever wondered how to know if it’s really God’s voice that you hear? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Ryan Straarup, who recently uprooted his entire family from North Carolina to Utah to plant a new church—simply because he believed God told him to.
