    NOTHING IS WASTED

    Your enemies sealed the tomb. God still opened it. Alex teaches Matthew 27:62-66 and reveals 6 characteristics of the enemy — fake, flippant, feeble, fickle, futile, and fallible — and why understanding them protects you from blaming yourself when people come against you. Nothing the enemy does can derail what God has already ordained. Not a seal. Not a guard. Not a lie. Lokelani closes with a raw, honest reflection on fear of man and what it looks like to actually let go. Nothing is wasted. AMENPODCAST.COM

  2. DEVOTION

    DEVOTION

    What does real devotion to Jesus look like — not in theory, but in real life? In this episode, Alex walks through Matthew 27:57-61 and shows us three pictures of devotion from one of the most overlooked passages in the crucifixion story. Joseph of Arimathea, Nicodemus, and the two Marys weren't doing anything spectacular. They were just doing what was right in front of them — and God was working through all of it in ways they couldn't see. If you've ever felt like your faithfulness doesn't matter because it's not big or bold or public, this one is for you. In this episode: Why Joseph risked everything to ask Pilate for Jesus's bodyWhat the myrrh reveals about following Jesus in the mundaneWhy sitting outside a tomb is one of the most powerful acts of devotion in ScriptureHow to follow Jesus even when you can't see where He's leading📖 Passage: Matthew 27:57–61 (ESV) 🎙️ Listen to Amen Podcast everywhere you get your podcasts🌐 amenpodcast.com💛 Support us on Venmo: @amenpodcast | Cash App: $amenalex📲 Follow us on Instagram for daily content If this blessed you, share it with a friend who needs to hear it.

    FINISHED

    Jesus didn't just die — He was forsaken. For 3 hours, darkness covered the land, and the Son of God cried out "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" — and the Father didn't answer. In this episode, Alex walks through Matthew 27:46-50 and uncovers what actually happened in those 3 hours on the cross, why Jesus stopped calling God "Father," and what it means that He declared "It is finished." If you've ever felt like God went silent on you, or if you're still secretly trying to earn what Jesus already paid for — this one's for you. Topics covered: The 3 hours of darkness and what they represent | Why Jesus called God "God" instead of "Father" | What "It is finished" actually means for your everyday life | Why your salvation can't be 99% — it has to be 100% | How bad theology leads us to look for salvation in the wrong places 📖 Matthew 27:46-50 | Psalm 22 | Habakkuk 1:13 | John 10:17-18 Support the show → amenpodcast.com | Venmo: @amenpodcast | Cash App: $amenalex

  6. Narrow Road

    FEB 23

    Narrow Road

    Most people assume they're on the right road. Jesus says otherwise. In Matthew 7:13-14, at the close of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus draws a line — two roads, two destinations, two kinds of people. The wide road is easy, crowded, and leads to destruction. The narrow road is hard, crushing, and leads to life. Alex breaks down what it really means to be on the narrow road, why none of us found it on our own, and what the Zoe life actually looks like. Lokelani closes with her own honest reflection on total depravity, grace, and what it costs to follow Jesus. A convicting and freeing conversation for anyone serious about their faith. https://www.instagram.com/amenpodcast/ 🌐 amenpodcast.com | Support the show at Venmo @amenpodcast

    DARKNESS

    The Darkness at the Cross | Matthew 27:45 When the sky went dark at noon, it wasn't just a weather event—it was God marking the moment His wrath fell on Jesus for our sin. In this episode, we explore the darkness that covered the land during Jesus's final three hours on the cross. We dive into what darkness meant in the Old Testament, why God dwells in "unapproachable light," and how the fear of the Lord is actually the beginning of knowing Him. Jesus entered the impenetrable darkness of God's wrath so we could walk in His light. This changes everything. AFTER THE AMEN QUESTION: What is a small view of God that you have that needs to change?

    VINDICATED

    Jesus Was Mocked on the Cross—And So Will You | Matthew 27:33-44 The world mocked Jesus as He hung on the cross. "If you're God's son, come down!" they shouted. But here's what they didn't understand: God's vindication doesn't look like the world's vindication. Jesus didn't come down from the cross to prove Himself—He stayed on it. And three days later, the empty tomb said everything. If you're facing mockery for your faith, if you're waiting for God to defend you, or if you're wondering why He isn't showing up the way you expected—this message is for you. In this sermon, we walk through Matthew 27:33-44 and uncover four powerful truths about Christ's crucifixion: TIMESTAMPS: [00:00] Intro - The Most Evil Day in History [02:04] The Crucifixion Begins [06:08] Golgotha: The Place of the Skull [08:19] Jesus Takes Our Place [16:26] Penal Substitutionary Atonement Explained [19:07] Prophecy Fulfilled: Psalm 22 [24:02] The Religious Leaders Mock Jesus [29:18] Moses, Miriam, and God's Vindication [33:42] Worship That Goes Deeper Than "He Loves Me" [35:34] How Jesus Responded to Mockery [36:25] Christianity Isn't About Being Understood [39:06] After the Amen Q&A KEY TAKEAWAYS: Let it humble you - You're the soldier, the mocker, the one who deserved the cross. Yet Jesus died instead of you.Let it fuel authentic worship - When you see Jesus didn't just die for you but instead of you, worship goes infinitely deeper.Respond with steadfast obedience - Like Jesus, you don't need the final word. God will vindicate you.Stop trying to be understood - Christianity isn't about being understood. It's about where you stand in Christ.The resurrection proves God will vindicate His children. You may face mockery now, but one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord.
