Chris’ New Book “The Priesthood” is here! Chris talks about the new book, current updates and also how the book is relevant to current world events!
The wayward and apostate priesthood can not minister to God’s face, only Zadok and his sons. Listen to this teaching on the Presence of God, Priesthood and more!
The Presence of God can never be “Pushed, pulled” or hyped up. It is carried on the shoulders of priests. Period. Point Blank. Listen as Chris delves into scripture to show the theology of why we need to carry His presence into all the earth that people everywhere might know the glorious Gospel of Jesus!
Ezra the priest. Revival has a purpose. Revival is for the purpose of building a resting place for the presence of the Lord.
Priesthood. Melchizedek. Fire.
Every Worship Leader, Christian Musician, Worshiper and revivalist must listen.
We have traded our inheritance to carry the eternal face of God for the temporary pleasures of fame, money, “influence”, and hit songs in the worship movement. We’re now left with the reality that our worship culture has become a money driven industry while making the church spiritually bankrupt. Make no mistake; as the worship culture goes, so goes the entire church. The focus of our worship will be the efficacy of our impact.
John The Baptist was a voice who didn’t fit into any of the cultural or religious paradigms of his day. Being misidentified can stunt the fullness of who God has made us to be. Listen as Chris teaches on this and on the current state of the church of America.
Many times revival outpourings and moves of God have been abandoned because of a misappropriation of what God is doing. Pruning is actually the reward for fruitfulness and obedience. Listen as Chris explains where Bourbon Street Revival is going and much more!
Visitation or Devastation. Listen as Chris shares a now word regarding revival, Luke 19, Matthew 11 and how every visitation demands a response! God wants to bring His Kingdom into our lives, families, and cities even more than we do; so how do we so often miss it? Listen in!
Listen as Chris shares a recent encounter that sparked a word out of Galatians 4. We can only produce the promise of God through our lives when we are living in “first-love” passion. Rachel was Jacob’s first love but Leah produced the “fruit”. What do we do when our passion is seemingly barren and we find our selves in bed with “what works” rather than what produces the promise? Listen in as Chris unpacks it!
The Presence of God is our provision. If we aren’t a company of people who follow the “fire by night and cloud by day” at all costs then we won’t see the fruits of revival and habitation. We must love God’s presence more than His promise. This is a revelatory and practical teaching on honoring the presence of God in our gatherings.
Transparency on our personal journey, what’s coming, and prophetic words that will give context for you in this season!
Update on our ministry moving to New Orleans to steward the Bourbon Street Revival and to press into the organic family that is being birthed out of this move of God.
Our secret place life with God evolves throughout our lives. If we’re honest, sometimes it seems we can’t find the Lord in the same ways or places we did before. We must understand that the Lord draws us up into new realms of intimacy as we continue in the devotional lifestyle. This is a NOW word for those who feel stuck, frustrated or want to go deeper in their walk with God in the secret place. This teaching is packed with revelation from the scriptures!
Chris sits down with master of drums, behind the scenes overlord of Burns Ministries and all around great guy Noah Waycaster to talk about the history, making and behind the songs of “Jesus In A Bar”. Lots of fun mixed in with clips of the new record!
The Lord is speaking Song of Solomon 8:13 to us in this time. The ones who emerge from this season of hiddenness with a true voice and sound from heaven that both the church and the Lord long to hear are the ones who dwell in the garden of intimacy. Now is not the time to produce but to abide. Listen to this now word from Chris.
Listen as Chris & Jose Diaz have a candid, raw and transparent conversation about the current season, the priesthood and the worship movement now and coming!
If you’re a follower of Jesus you should listen. If you’re a creative, musician, preacher, worship leader etc. you should should listen. Kanye, a new worship movement, and other things too scandalous to mention here. Enjoy!
Praying in tongues is for all believers. Listen as Chris dispels myths, thoroughly unpacks and demystifies praying in the Spirit. Solid biblical teaching on praying in tongues and encouragement to pray at “all times” in the Holy Spirit!
Revival is here; many will not see it. Listen as Chris goes in depth through the bible, and church history on how the move of God currently in the earth doesn’t look like many expect. Don’t miss this!
Authentic and genuine revival has broken out in a bar on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Listen as Chris tells the story of the past 6 months of this unprecedented move of God that we believe is a symbol and sign to America of a new Jesus People movement and 3rd great awakening. It’s not coming, IT’S HERE!
Listen as Chris teaches on how revelation, prophetic words, and promises can be a stumbling block without proper view of suffering and the word being tested. Peter was called “The Rock” by his revelation by which Jesus would build His church, then one paragraph later Peter is being rebuked as a “stumbling block”!
This week listen to a recent teaching from Chris regarding friendship with the Lord, new covenant access to God’s glory, and how God wants us to impact our generations and take territory. Also listen for a powerful dream at the end of the message!
SHUT IT ALL DOWN! If we don’t have the Presence of God in our midst, we have nothing! Moses declared in Exodus that the Presence of God upon His people was the only defining factor setting the people of God apart from every other person on the face of the earth! The priests must arise! Listen as Chris prophesies of a new wave of “secret-service” worship missionaries hitting the earth for a time such as this!
In this recent teaching from Chris in his hometown of Nashville, TN, we hear of friendship with God leading to promotion and personal promotion being “spent” on corporate outpouring and blessing. We must have the long-view in mind when building the legacy God has for ourselves, ministries, families and ultimately His kingdom! Listen to this now word from Chris!
God takes us into seasons where our identity must be tested so as to reveal where our foundation is. Even Jesus was tested in HIs identity, scripture reveals this again and again. A strong interior life, fortified by intimacy with Jesus, will always be the key to walking in the full confidence and calling of God!
Chris teaches on how we personally and corporately are called to be the very dwelling place of the Lord. Practically, what does this mean, and what does it look like? Listen to find out!
Listen as Chris sits down with Marcus Akins, a worship leader and recording artist out of Washington D.C.
Are you in a weak place in life? Rejoice! Paul rejoiced in his sufferings, infirmities, and weaknesses; we often complain our way through these weak and low times hoping to get out by any means necessary. The Book of Revelation says that all of heaven worships Jesus and they ascribe praise to Him using the name Lamb of God! The Lion of Judah’s strength is seen in heaven as a lamb slain! This is our signpost and kingdom cue that in Kingdom culture, to be humbled is to be exalted and that weakness is praised! Enjoy!
A recent message Chris gave in Los Angeles. We pray for revival and a move of God. What if it comes to us in a different form than we are used to? We must know the Lord and what He is doing by His voice not the form. The form changes, but the voice and fruit remain the same! The “believers” in the days of Jesus rejected Him, but the “common people” received him. Listen and be challenged!
Am I a flowering tree or am I fruiting tree? Do I live the type of life that is bearing real fruit or am I just a flowering tree that looks the part? Do I look like I am doing great things for the kingdom but there is no real fruit? Bearing fruit is not always pretty, in fact it can be messy and more work. A life of abiding in Jesus and leaning into Him brings about true kingdom transformation. This is the life Jesus encouraged us to live, a life that offers something of substance to better people and the world around us.
Your breakthrough is not for you alone. Hebrews 11:4 says through Abel's faith, though he died, he still speaks. Your sacrifice, the alters that you build, have a voice that will outlast your life. When you sacrifice out of obedience to God you can leave something behind that has a voice long after you are gone.
Teaching on 1 Samuel 10 and 19. People will come under the presence of God through worshippers and will “be changed into a difference person”. This is something we are going to see, this is a promise for us! The type of worship that is coming is going to transform kings and turn killers into prophets. A song is rising up out of the church that will quench this murderous spirit in America. When the song of the Lord come forth it will turn men into totally different people. It is time for the church to realize the priority and power of worship. Worship can change the atmosphere of a town, stop tragedy before it starts and bless an entire nation.
The great harvest that is coming in this hour is intertwined with worship and the presence of God. Many will ask the church in the coming days “what must I do to be saved” as worship is released in every sphere and facet of society.
The roots of our spiritual/musical inheritance is seen in 1 Samuel 10. In the scripture we see the prophets of God release the presence of God through music and worship. They are not releasing it for stages, crowds or fame but for a deeper purpose unto the Lord. Their song carried breakthrough for the land and anyone who came into their atmosphere. Imagine a modern day band of prophet musicians who play their music and the Spirit of the living God comes upon all who hear it with life changing encounters. This is the invitation God has for every musician and creative.
