Three Lives and No Reserve
February 28, 2018 17:03 - 1 hour - 35.5 MBLCM's very own Buddy Brasseaux, Missionary to Peru, shares a timely message about momentary trials and personal sacrifice. We have 3 lives in play - the life we left, the life we are living now, and the eternal life our sacrifices are achieving. If we have the same attitude as Christ Jesus, who kept nothing in reserve, then we attain the eternal by taking up our cross daily and following Him in His sacrifice.
Patriarchal Power and Toxic Masculinity
February 25, 2018 19:06 - 1 hour - 34.1 MBWe have all experienced that innate desire to imitate our fathers, whether their example was godly or not. In conversational style, Elder Boz Arezina and Pastor Eric Stephens share on the Biblical model that fathers are supposed to lay down for their children, one that produces sons that far surpass their fathers. How you experience God is how your son will experience Him. With the perspective that you are raising Kings, not children, you eliminate the chaos that comes from an emasculated s...
Romancing the Stone
February 21, 2018 15:14 - 1 hour - 38.8 MBIf you have a true heart after God, then you will desire to build something great for Him. Listen as Pastor Eric reveals the mystery of how God is building something great for you through that process. In this process, our building materials need to be the quality that will pass the inspection of The Builder and Architect, God, and be worthy of joining the home our father Abraham and king David have already built.
Baptism and Perseverance
February 19, 2018 04:04 - 59 minutes - 27.1 MBHave you ever felt so in over your head or outdone by your circumstances that you just wanted to quit? Pastor Matthew brings an encouraging word about the one character quality that doesn't allow you to quit - perseverance. Jesus teaches us that perseverance is essential in order to produce fruit, and that suffering is essential in order to produce perseverance. It is the spade by which the hardened heart of man is turned into the soil that produces a crop 100, 60, 30 fold.
Christ the Rock
February 14, 2018 06:03 - 1 hour - 44.6 MBFull-time Missionary to Tanzania, Tori Rasmussen shares a passionate word with LCM about our responsibility to the nations. The Lord declares, "My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations." {Mk 11:17} In our pursuit of Christ the Rock, are we building a spiritual house of living stones that only look and talk like we do? Rather, shouldn't we be providing unhindered access to that Rock to ALL people, by both preaching the gospel and interceding for those who have not received it...
Cult Leader
February 12, 2018 03:45 - 1 hour - 30.6 MB"Everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." {2 Tim 3:10} How well, then, do you handle persecution and insults? Do you retaliate, or like Jesus, entrust yourself to Him who judges justly? Pastor Eric delivers a powerful message reminding us that persecution is to be worn as a badge of honor, that we have been counted worthy to suffer disgrace for the name of Christ.
Family Entrapment
February 07, 2018 21:49 - 1 hour - 28.2 MBHow thin is your skin? Do you feel entitled to be offended? Have you become entrapped by offense? Through this scandalous word, Pastor Wade teaches us about the Greek word "skandalon", which describes the trigger on a trap, but is used throughout the Bible to describe offenses. This is a life-changing message that will help you to rightly see the trap and avoid the grief that an offended heart brings.
Grab Hold
February 04, 2018 22:38 - 1 hour - 30 MBThe Body of Christ is made up of many parts, but together we are ONE BODY upholding one standard. Pastor Wade delivers a powerful message, reminding us of what the standard is (the Lord and His word) and the necessity of grabbing hold of Him through obedience to His word. He challenges us to crush those things that cause division in the Body, and together we should all hold up the standard, and be conformed to His likeness.
Magnify - The Exponent
February 01, 2018 02:56 - 1 hour - 31.3 MBIn the final message of our 8-part series TALMIDIM, brother Judah Stephens brings a convicting word about the final stage of discipleship, exponentially magnifying the teaching that has been deposited within you. He walks us through the biblical standard of successive generations accomplishing even greater things than their predecessors. After this message, you will take a sober look at your own life, examining where you are in the discipleship process and if you are on course to exponentiall...
Initiate - It's A Bloody Process
January 28, 2018 22:27 - 1 hour - 36.9 MBIn the 7th message of the TALMIDIM Series, we hear from Nik Arezina, Abimbola Daramola, and Payton Parsons as they share what it looks like to be initiated into the work for which discipleship has prepared you. This is a bloody process, meaning it requires much sacrifice on the part of the disciple at every stage. They pose the question, where are YOU in the process, and are you advancing or stalling out? Are you compromising or sacrificing? Can you detach from your way of life and attach yo...
Direct - Succeeding Under Direction
January 24, 2018 22:46 - 58 minutes - 26.6 MBWe continue our examination of true biblical discipleship in this 6th installment of the TALMIDIM Series. Payton Parsons shares how to succeed under supervision and the necessity of receiving divine direction from your teacher. Are you firmly embedded in the discipleship process? Are you receiving direction from your teachers with humility and desire to implement their instruction? Or are you a spiritual snowflake, melting from the heat of correction?
Implement - Responding to Responsibility
January 17, 2018 20:52 - 49 minutes - 22.8 MBThe TALMIDIM Series continues with this challenging message from Justin Linton regarding our responsibility to respond to the instruction we have been given. The harvest is ripe and we have been given the tools we need to reap the souls hanging in the balance. Will you cultivate the faithfulness required to see the Kingdom break out in the lives around you? Will you let go of excuses and grab the confidence the Lord has provided, or will you refuse to walk in the authority that comes from imp...
M.O.D.E.L. - Emulating the Example
January 14, 2018 20:03 - 32 minutes - 14.7 MBIn the 4th message of the TALMIDIM Series, Abimbola Daramola examines what it means to model our lives after our teachers. In order to emulate their example, sacrifice is required, inconvenience is certain, and correction is essential. Will you allow yourself to be fully trained by the pattern they have laid down, and so experience exponential spiritual growth?
Lavish - Traveling Together
January 10, 2018 19:35 - 1 hour - 31 MBIn the 3rd message of the TALMIDIM Series, three LCM Disciples deliver a powerful message on positioning yourself to receive the instruction your teachers desire to lavish upon you. Just as Joshua gleaned from Moses and Aaron through their victories and failures, we learn that discipleship has a cost for both the Rabbi and the student. It is through the fire of adversity that the iron-clad bond is made, and the student learns how to fulfill his calling. Seize the opportunity of a lifetime i...

He issues a powerful challenge to examine your heart for entanglements that get in the way of this bond, and calls you to leave them behind, pushing further into a higher form of discipleship with your fathers in the faith.
Take In - Cultivating the Call
January 04, 2018 04:40 - 1 hour - 31.6 MBNik Arezina begins an 8 week series based on the hebrew word for disciples TALMIDIM. In the first message of this series, Nik teaches on the fundamental step of discipleship, Take In. Are you allowing the Lord to cultivate your call by putting yourself in position to be Taken In to discipleship? Or do you make excuses for your lack of effort to be close to the leaders God has placed before you?
The Right Hand

Getting Off the Ropes
December 18, 2017 03:41 - 58 minutes - 26.7 MBIn this our 5th message in our 12th Round Series, Pastor Matt teaches us how to get off the ropes! It is here that we clinch with ungodly people who show more dedication that the people of God! We turn by understanding the role our obedience plays in the Ultimate Sovereignty of God. Our all out offensive begins by planting your feet, cutting off your opponent, and assaulting the enemy with persistent and deliberate punching so we can impose God's will upon our enemy and unleash a holy savager...
Glass Jaws and Granite Chins
December 14, 2017 04:12 - 1 hour - 28.5 MBIn this our fourth sermon in our 12th round series, Justin Treaster gives us a powerful Word!

Ring Revelations and Calling the Round

In this first sermon, Pastor Wade kicks off our series by clinching with the fact that God has called the end from the beginning and yet we do not always see His will fully realized in every situation...yet.

Franchising Faithlessness
November 15, 2017 21:51 - 1 hour - 30 MBPrepare to have your heart stirred!! Pastor Eric delivers a poignant message on building false altars.

Hoss
November 12, 2017 21:54 - 1 hour - 37.2 MBIn this message, Ps. Eric so clearly lays out the idea that "I want to not want sin!"

In this message Pastor Eric provides a unique insight on covenants as more than an obligatory legal agreement but rather a deep self sacrificing emotional bond that joins people together under one purpose, God's purpose. And like our growth in Christ, our covenants expand from an individual basis, to a familial, to eventually a global bond fully persuaded as a co conspirator with Christ.
Jarhead Covenant
