    Bestselling Author: Millions of Christians Love Jesus But Have No Fear of God!

    Send us Fan Mail  After writing 25 books translated into over 150 languages and distributing 70 million resources across 240 nations, bestselling author John Bevere explains why millions of Christians have built their faith on only half of the gospel — and why the missing half is the reason so many leaders fall, marriages collapse, and believers live in comfortable disobedience! John Bevere is a New York Times bestselling author, international minister, and co-founder of Messenger International — a discipleship ministry that has equipped leaders in over 240 nations with more than 70 million resources. He has written 25 books including "The Awe of God," "The Bait of Satan," and "Driven by Eternity," and has been in full-time ministry for over 40 years. He and his wife Lisa have been married for 44 years. He explains: ◼️ Why the fear of God and the love of God are two guardrails — and why most Christians are driving with only one ◼️ The prison visit with the most famous pastor in America that revealed how entire ministries collapse overnight ◼️ How Paul went from "least of the apostles" to "chief of sinners" — and why that progression was the point ◼️ The reason God told a man who scored 16 in English on the ACT to write 25 books ◼️ Why being filled with the Holy Spirit is not a one-time event — and the daily practice most believers skip ◼️ The one-sentence parenting principle that changed his marriage after 44 years ◼️ What a 1600s French woman imprisoned for her faith taught him about reading Scripture  For more information on Rise Up Kings, go to https://riseupkings.com/youtube   Not ready to do an in-person event?

    World Cup Dad: I Had 0.0001% Odds, Then God Put Me On Brazil's Roster

    Send us Fan Mail After spending 6 years sick with a mystery illness and 15 years in full-time ministry, World Cup Dad Zach Duke reveals how a single prayer in a Virginia coffee shop led him from a rec league where 40-year-old women stole the ball from him to Brazil's 2026 World Cup roster — and why he almost didn't obey the one word God gave him!  Zach Duke is a full-time missionary who has served in over 40 countries since 2010, a former Division 1 football player who had never played soccer, and a newly-signed member of Brazil's 2026 FIFA World Cup indoor team. He is the founder of World Cup Dad, a platform challenging men to push their bodies, faith, and discipline to the edge, and descends from the William Wallace clan.  He explains:  ◼️ The three-sentence "dangerous prayer" that ended 6 years of chronic illness in a single afternoon  ◼️ Why he gave himself a 0.0001% chance of making the World Cup — and wrote the odds down on his phone  ◼️ The two core lies that sabotage almost every man ("I'm not enough" and "it's too late")  ◼️ How praying over a locker room — not his skill — got him drafted professionally  ◼️ The Brazilian teammate he discipled who ended up handing him a World Cup contract  ◼️ Why weak men, not politics or economics, are the real reason the country is collapsing  ◼️ The exact 3 questions any man can ask to start hearing God's voice today  For more information on Rise Up Kings, go to https://riseupkings.com/youtube   Not ready to do an in-person event?

    AI Is Coming For Your Job (But Not Your Soul)

    Send us Fan Mail AI is coming for your job… but it might also make you rich. In this conversation, we break down the truth about artificial intelligence, what it’s really doing to the world, and why it’s about to widen the gap between winners and losers. We talk about whether AI is killing creativity, if people are becoming dependent on machines, and the deeper question most aren’t asking… are we slowly replacing our thinking, our relationships, and even our faith?

  4. Christians Keep Dividing Over This… And It’s Hurting the Church | The Lord's Giant

    Christians Keep Dividing Over This… And It’s Hurting the Church | The Lord's Giant

    Send us Fan Mail Christians keep dividing over secondary issues, and it’s hurting the Church. In this powerful conversation, we tackle why believers argue over theology, hell, deliverance, and denominational differences while people are walking away from the faith feeling unheard and hopeless. We discuss majors vs minors in Christianity, eternal conscious torment vs annihilationism, deconstruction, church hurt, spiritual warfare, and why asking hard questions should never get someone silenced. If Christians cannot disagree with humility, unity suffers, and the next generation leaves. This episode is a call for biblical courage, theological depth, and Christlike love. The world does not need louder Christian arguments. It needs Christians who reflect Jesus in truth, grace, and action.

  7. Why 'God Told Me' Becomes Dangerous without Counsel

    Why 'God Told Me' Becomes Dangerous without Counsel

    Send us Fan Mail In this Rise Up Kings Podcast episode, Coach Mondo sits down with Coach Jon Wood (“Switch”) and Pastor David for a deep, unfiltered conversation about Jesus, politics, masculinity, sexual ethics, prophetic words, and hearing God’s voice in a divided culture. This isn’t a surface-level debate. The discussion breaks down how Jesus’ announcement of the Kingdom of God was a direct challenge to Rome’s power, why modern political labels don’t fit a first-century Messiah, and how Jesus would likely be received today in conversations surrounding LGBTQ issues, cultural identity, and morality. The episode also unpacks: - Jesus’ teachings as nonviolent resistance, not passivity - Why “God told me” can become a spiritual manipulation tactic - How to discern a true word from God using Scripture, fruit, peace, and - maturity - Whether spiritual gifts can be developed or are only divinely assigned - The difference between meekness and weakness for strong Christian men - When force, self-defense, or protection may be morally justified This conversation challenges both political sides because Jesus doesn’t fit modern categories. He confronts power, disrupts comfort, loves people without affirming sin, and calls men to strength under control. The episode closes with a sobering reminder from John 10:27: “My sheep hear My voice… the real question isn’t whether God is speaking — it’s whether you’re listening.” Chapters:  00:00:00 — Was Jesus conservative or liberal? Kingdom of God vs Caesar 00:02:17 — A first-century Jew in 21st-century political categories 00:03:18 — Social conservatism, fiscal generosity, and sexual ethics 00:04:31 — “Turn the other cheek” as nonviolent resistance 00:06:52 — How Jesus would be received today (LGBTQ + politics) 00:10:16 — “I have a word from the Lord”: when to be cautious 00:12:18 — Scripture as the filter: conviction vs condemnation 00:14:23 — The fruit test: character, maturity, and relationship 00:17:14 — Shocking real-life prophetic moments 00:36:34 — How to hear God: Scripture, counsel, reason, tradition 00:46:18 — Meekness vs weakness: the lion choosing restraint 00:54:06 — Self-defense, force vs violence, and Christian ethics For more information on Rise Up Kings, go to https://riseupkings.com/youtube  Not ready to do an in-person event?
