We live in dark times, and God has called the church to be a prophetic voice. In this conference session from the 2017 Orlando RightNow Conference, Pastor Eric Mason challenges us that the church has tragically majored on the minor things, and by doing so has become a pathetic voice.

In the summer of 2016, the United States was reeling from several deaths that spurred nationwide uproar. On July 5, 2016, Alton Sterling, a black man, was shot by two white police officers in Baton Rouge, LA. Just one day later, Philando Castile, also a black man, was shot by a Hispanic-American police officer in Falcon Heights, Minnesota. These two deaths were the motivation behind the fatal shooting of five Dallas police officers on July 7, 2016. One week after these events, Acts 29 held its summer gathering of pastors and leaders. As part of the event, pastor and Acts 29 president, Matt Chandler, hosted a timely panel discussion with several pastors to discuss racism, police brutality, white privilege, and the recent shootings from a Christocentric vantage point.

Pastors participating in the panel discussion are: 

  • Eric Mason, Lead Pastor of Epiphany Fellowship in Philadelphia, PA
  • Léonce Crump, Senior Pastor of Renovation Church in Atlanta, GA
  • Brandon Washington, Pastor of Preaching and Vision of The Embassy Church in Denver, CO
  • Dwayne Bond, Lead Pastor of Preaching and Vision of Wellspring Church in Charlotte, NC
  • Thabiti Anyabwile, Lead Pastor of Anacostia River Church in Washington, D.C.

In light of the recent deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Abery, and Breonna Taylor, we invite you to watch this discussion that is as necessary and timely in 2020 as it was in 2016.

Racial unity is a gospel issue and all the more urgent 50 years after Martin Luther King Jr.'s death. Join the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission and The Gospel Coalition at a special event, "MLK50: Gospel Reflections from the Mountaintop," which took place April 3-4, 2018 in Memphis, TN. Key speakers included Matt Chandler, Jackie Hill Perry, Eric Mason, Russell Moore, John Piper, Benjamin Watson, and many others.

The 50th anniversary of King's tragic death marks an opportunity for Christians to reflect on the state of racial unity in the church and the culture. It creates the occasion to reflect on where Christians have been and look ahead to where we must go as we pursue racial unity in the midst of tremendous tension.

The call of Jesus is unmistakable because it often defies logic and is unattainable on our own. How can you be the leader God has created and called you to be? Can you accept His charge, follow His path, walk in His method, and exchange the glories this world has to offer for His goal? Will you choose daily?

Surrender means leading people to put others before self and Christ above all—because when we live for us, we all lose. What can we do as leaders to surrender and lead our people to this posture of surrender? We begin with a fresh view of the gospel, a new look at our life, and an evaluation of our leadership.

Al final del día, a Dios le importa más quienes somos en Él que lo que hacemos por Él. Pocas figuras ilustran esta verdad mejor que Jonás. El libro de Jonás se enfoca principalmente en el profeta y no tanto en la profecía; al hacer esto nos da la ilustración de un hombre que está huyendo porque tiene deseos egoístas. En lugar de mostrar misericordia a sus enemigos, él está determinado a no compartir la gracia de Dios con aquellos que no la merecen. Es este punto el que permite que nos relacionemos fuertemente con él, ¿no lo cree?

En ocho sesiones, el pastor y autor Eric Mason expande nuestra visión y nos permite observar que la historia de Jonás es también nuestra historia. Este libro es más que una aventura de escuela dominical, este libro nos abre el entendimiento al conflicto que ocurre cuando Dios llama y sus hijos resisten Su llamado. Aun más importante, el libro de Jonás enfatiza la profundidad de Su compasión por redimir no solo a los perdidos, sino a aquellos que Él ha llamado a ser parte de Su obra de reconciliación.

Así que abróchese el cinturón y prepárese para que Eric revele como Dios usa circunstancias extraordinarias para quebrantar nuestros corazones, remover el egoísmo, demostrarnos Su dulce cuidado, y enlazar nuestras vidas con Sus propósitos para Su gloria.

Para obtener toda la experiencia descargue los recursos y complementos subsiguientes. La guía de estudio contiene más de 30 páginas de una enseñanza profunda con direcciones para la discusión en grupo y respuestas útiles para preguntas bíblicas. Esta guía de estudio va más allá de tan sólo darnos conocimiento, nos da varias aplicaciones prácticas de la Palabra de Dios para nuestra vida diaria o para nuestro estudio en grupo.

Every one of us will have to face eternity—to look across the chasm of death to life beyond. For those of us who have chosen to follow Jesus, we look forward to an eternity filled with joy and free from sorrow. The guarantee of eternity means we can live every day on this earth not for our own gain, but for the benefit of God’s kingdom. Let's use what we’ve been given in the time we have to proclaim the gospel of Jesus to ourselves, our disciples, and the world.

At the end of the day, God is less concerned with what we do for Him than who we are in Him. Few figures illustrate that truth better than Jonah. Focused on the prophet rather than his prophecy, the story of Jonah gives us a picture of a man on the run due to his own selfish desires. Instead of showing mercy to his enemies, he determined to keep God's grace to himself rather than share it with those he considered undeserving. Can you relate?

Over the course of 8 verse-by-verse sessions, pastor and author Eric Mason expands our vision to see that Jonah's story is our own. Far more than a thrilling Sunday school adventure, it offers a profound glimpse into the conflict that occurs when God calls resistant believers to His mission. More importantly, it underscores the depths of His compassion not only in redeeming the lost, but redeeming those He has called to participate in His reconciling work.

So climb aboard and settle in as Eric reveals how God uses extraordinary circumstances to break our hearts of selfishness, convince us of His tender care, and unite our lives to His glory.

Leaders who are rooted in Christ are able to lead with His supernatural power. The 2015 RightNow Conference focuses on three areas of Jesus’ leadership to ensure that we are rooted in Him and are leading from His power: rooted in Christ, rooted in each other, and rooted in the Church's mission.

* Note: The real-life stories in this series contain mature themes.*

Teenagers are constantly advised toward one extreme after another. Their parents and teachers likely push them toward maturity and responsibility. Friends usually suggest conformity to peers and pursuing that which will bring the most immediate pleasure. The image portrayed by many musicians, actors, and athletes glorifies sex and drugs and untamed selfishness. With all of these conflicting views, how does a Christian teenager decide how to live? 

In this Bible study, Eric Mason encourages students to make every decision out of a worldview shaped by God's Word and centered around our Savior, Jesus. Eric calls teens to abandon the idea that choices made in youth are temporary and meaningless, and instead to make decisions now that will impact both their lives and God's Kingdom for eternity.

Please Note: This series is intended for High School aged teenagers. Please preview the material, especially if you plan on showing it to Junior High aged youth.

* Note: The real-life stories in this series contain mature themes.*

Who are you?

Our world values being unique. So much so, that we end up looking the same as we try to be different. But we aren't a number. We aren't our clothes, our relationships or our accomplishments. In Christ we are much more.

In these four thought-provoking youth Bible study sessions, Eric Mason compares the message the world constantly tells teens about their identity with the truths found in Scripture. The world tells us it's all about how you look, what you have, what you do, and whom you are connected to. But Scripture teaches that while those things can be important, they do not constitute who you are. As followers of Jesus Christ, our identity is found in Him.

With biblical teaching and real-life stories, this series will help students ground their identity in Christ and live boldly as children of God and heirs of heaven.

The gospel fuels the Church—without it we have no purpose, no vision, and no mission. Salvation through Jesus is the very reason the Church exists. But we often let the truths of the gospel grow stale in our hearts. What would it look like for Christ refresh us and unleash us for the gospel?
