    How to Trust God While You’re Waiting | Genesis 12 | Parker Green

    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

    The Cure For Confusion | Genesis 11 | Jessi Green

    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

    How to Win Spiritual Warfare: 7 Biblical Strategies | Genesis 6 | Parker Green

    Spiritual warfare is real, but many Christians either ignore it or give the enemy more authority than he has.In “How to Win Spiritual Warfare,” Pastor Parker Green teaches from Genesis 6 about the Nephilim, the unseen spiritual world, and the victory Jesus has already won. He then gives seven practical, biblical strategies for spiritual warfare: watch your agreements, obey God, guard your words, let God fight for you, stop nurturing destructive thoughts, pray specifically, recognize unhealthy patterns, laugh at the enemy, worship, and stand with other believers.The enemy may have power, but he does not have authority over someone who belongs to Jesus. You do not have to live intimidated, defeated, or controlled by every thought that enters your mind. Through Christ, you can stand firm, take ground, and live from His victory.If this message strengthens you, share it with someone who needs courage for the spiritual battle they are facing.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 — Stepping Out of the Wilderness 1:11 — The Word and the Spirit Belong Together 4:30 — Introduction to Spiritual Warfare 5:35 — Why Demons Are Terrified of Jesus 8:49 — Intrusive Thoughts and Temptation 9:35 — Prayer Reveals What You Truly Depend On 12:12 — The Spiritual World Rules Over the Physical 13:34 — Why Technology Cannot Heal a Broken Humanity 15:05 — Understanding the Spiritual World of Genesis 6 17:35 — The Sons of God and the Nephilim 19:05 — The Seed War Against the Messiah 21:58 — Jesus Has Already Won the Universe 23:27 — Is It a Demon or a Bad Decision? 24:49 — How the Enemy Plants Offense 27:35 — Strategy 1: Watch Your Agreements 28:57 — Shema: Hearing Means Obeying 29:49 — Strategy 2: Guard Your Words 32:24 — Strategy 3: Let God Fight for You 35:48 — Strategy 4: Stop Watering Bad Seeds 36:58 — Strategy 5: Pray Like You Are at War 39:16 — Strategy 6: Recognize Your Patterns 40:38 — Strategy 7: Laugh at the Enemy 43:15 — Worship Is a Weapon 43:35 — The Armor of God 44:30 — Stop Playing Defense 46:22 — Call Your Father 49:03 — Put On Christ Daily 51:04 — An Invitation to Follow Jesus SCRIPTURES REFERENCEDGenesis 3 — The serpent and the beginning of the seed war Genesis 6:1–4 — The sons of God and the Nephilim Exodus 7–12 — God confronts the gods of Egypt Exodus 14:13–14 — Stand firm and watch the Lord fight for you 2 Kings 6:15–17 — Chariots of fire surrounding Elisha Psalm 2:4 — God laughs at His enemies Psalm 37:12–13 — The Lord laughs at the schemes of the wicked Psalm 149:6 — Praise as a sword Proverbs 18:21 — Life and death are in the power of the tongue Isaiah 59:19 — The Lord raises a standard against the enemy Matthew 17:20 — Faith like a mustard seed Mark 11:12–25 — Faith, prayer, and forgiveness Luke 13:6–9 — The parable of the unfruitful fig tree John 4:24 — Worshiping God in spirit and truth John 10:10 — The thief destroys; Jesus gives abundant life Romans 8:31 — If God is for us, who can be against us? 1 Corinthians 2:8 — The rulers did not understand the crucifixion 1 Corinthians 6:3 — The saints will judge angels Colossians 1:15–20 — Jesus rules over every power and authority Ephesians 6:10–18 — The armor of God James 3:1–12 — The power of the tongue James 5:16 — Confession, healing, and effective prayer 2 Peter 2:4 — Angels kept for judgment Jude 6 — Angels who abandoned their proper dwelling Plan Your Visit to SALT Church: https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry: https://www.saltchurches.com/givingSubscribe:   / saltchurches   @saltchurchNCConnect with Parker + Jessi Green: Parker:   / parkerrichardgreen   Jessi:   / jessi.green  Websites: https://www.saltchurches.com/ https://www.jessi-green.com/ https://www.saturateglobal.com/#spiritualwarfare #genesis6 #nephilim #bible #biblestudy #jesus #saltchurch #parkergreen

    Why Your Family History Does Not Define Your Future | Genesis 5 | Parker Green

    Generational patterns can feel permanent but the blood of Jesus brings us into a new family line.Pastor Parker Green teaches from Genesis 5 and traces the family lines of Cain, Seth, Noah, Abraham, David, and Jesus. The genealogies of Scripture are more than lists of names: they reveal a faithful God working through imperfect people and generations to bring redemption through Jesus, the second Adam.You do not have to be controlled by the brokenness behind you. Through Jesus, you can receive a new inheritance, build new habits, and become the beginning of a different story for the generations after you.If this message encourages you, share it with someone who needs to know that their family history does not determine their future.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 — Prayer and Introduction 1:35 — Marriage, Covenant, and Generational Legacy 5:49 — Why Biblical Genealogies Matter 6:50 — The Power of Generational Influence 9:43 — The Truth About Generational Curses 11:20 — The Seed War Begins in Genesis 15:34 — The Family Line of Seth 18:18 — Why People Lived So Long in Genesis 20:06 — Enoch, Methuselah, and the Coming Flood 24:21 — Noah: Rest in a Time of Lamentation 25:51 — God Works Through Imperfect Families 28:16 — David’s Broken Family and God’s Covenant 31:05 — The Genealogy of Jesus 33:21 — Jesus, the Second Adam 35:53 — What It Means to Be Redeemed 36:35 — Born Again Into a New Family 37:47 — Faith and the Generations of Hebrews 11 42:25 — A Personal Story of Generational Faith 44:38 — Your Yes Can Change Generations 46:38 — An Invitation to Follow Jesus SCRIPTURES REFERENCEDGenesis 3:15 — The promised offspring who will crush the serpent Genesis 4:16–26 — The family lines of Cain and Seth Genesis 5 — The generations from Adam to Noah Genesis 15 — God’s covenant with Abraham Genesis 22:1–14 — Abraham, Isaac, and the provided sacrifice 2 Samuel 7:12–16 — God’s covenant with David Luke 3:23–38 — The genealogy of Jesus Matthew 23:8–10 — One Teacher and one Father Matthew 28:19 — Baptized into the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit John 3:3 — Born again Romans 8:11 — The Spirit gives life to our mortal bodies 1 Corinthians 11:23–26 — The body and blood of Jesus Hebrews 11:1–7 — Faith from Abel to Noah Plan Your Visit to SALT Church: https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry: https://www.saltchurches.com/givingSubscribe:   / saltchurches   @saltchurchNCConnect with Parker + Jessi Green: Parker:   / parkerrichardgreen   Jessi:   / jessi.green  Websites: https://www.saltchurches.com/ https://www.jessi-green.com/ https://www.saturateglobal.com/#generationalcurses #genesis #bible #biblestudy #jesus #saltchurch #parkergreen

    The Trap of Asceticism: When Self-Denial Becomes Pride | The Invitation

    Self-denial can look holy while still keeping our attention fixed on ourselves.In this episode of the SALT Podcast, Pastor Jessi Green sits down with Sav and Selah to examine asceticism—the practice of denying physical desires in pursuit of spiritual growth. Together, they explore fasting, consecration, wealth, social media, personal conviction, and the subtle ways religious pride can disguise itself as radical devotion.Through Colossians 2 and 1 Timothy 4, they confront the difference between biblical discipline and self-made religion. Holiness is not something we manufacture by rejecting everything enjoyable. Christ is the One who makes us holy. From that foundation, fasting, generosity, sacrifice, and self-denial become responses of love and obedience—not attempts to earn closeness with God.If this conversation challenges or encourages you, share it with someone learning how to live both consecrated and fully alive.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 – Can You Be Consecrated and Fully Alive?4:16 – Awakening God-Given Desire5:46 – What Is Asceticism?8:54 – Colossians 2 and Self-Made Religion14:34 – How Do We Actually Become Holy?19:18 – Does Asceticism Belong in Christianity?24:06 – Should Christians Fast?32:06 – Monasticism and Spiritual Perfection40:26 – Why You Fast Matters41:00 – Radical Devotion or Comfortable Christianity?49:53 – The Warning in 1 Timothy 455:25 – What Makes Something Holy?56:57 – Receiving God’s Gifts With Thanksgiving1:01:34 – Judging Christians Who Enjoy Good Things1:04:20 – Self-Denial Can Still Be Self-Focused1:08:51 – Living as a Good Soldier of Christ1:11:55 – Deleting Social Media Doesn’t Change Your Heart1:13:55 – A Mission Trip or a Luxury Hotel?1:18:57 – Gluttony, Fasting, and the American Church1:21:49 – Christ Sets Us Apart1:24:17 – Healthy Self-Denial and Personal Conviction1:27:57 – When Social Media Abstinence Becomes Pride1:30:16 – “God Told Me To Watch TV”1:34:34 – The Myth of Secret Spiritual Practices1:36:27 – The Pharisees Were “Separated Ones”1:42:21 – Learning To Receive Extravagant Gifts1:47:18 – “Jesus Didn’t Make Me Poor”1:49:02 – What the Rich Young Ruler Reveals1:50:30 – Prayer and Closing SCRIPTURES REFERENCEDNumbers 6 — The Nazarite vowPsalm 119:9 — Remaining pure through obedience to God’s WordColossians 1:22–23 — Made holy and blameless through ChristColossians 2:1–5, 16–23 — Christ versus self-made religionMatthew 6:16–18 — Jesus’ teaching about fastingMatthew 16:24 — Deny yourself and follow JesusMatthew 19:16–22 — The rich young ruler1 Timothy 4:1–16 — Receiving God’s creation with thanksgivingJohn 15 — Abiding in Christ2 Timothy 2:1–12 — Training and endurance in ChristGalatians 5:16–24 — The Spirit, the flesh, and self-controlEcclesiastes 5:19 — Receiving and enjoying God’s giftsRomans 14 — Personal conviction without judging others Plan Your Visit to SALT Church:https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry:https://www.saltchurches.com/givingConnect With SALT Church:  / saltchurches     / @saltchurchnc  Connect With Jessi Green:  / jessi.green  https://www.jessi-green.com/#asceticism #holiness #consecration #fasting #christianpodcast #biblestudy #saltchurch #jessigreen
