What if the signs of the end times are unfolding right before our eyes, and we're not prepared? Pastor Jason Watson and guest Pastor Michael Edds unravel the mysteries of biblical prophecy, bringing to light the astonishing parallels between Biblical, End Time Prophecy and today’s global events in Israel. From the rebirth of Israel in 1948 to modern geopolitical tensions involving Iranian-backed attacks, Pastor Edds offers a compelling perspective on how these occurrences align with biblical scripture. We explore the significance of Israel's prosperity and technological advancements, and their prophetic implications, delving into the urgent reality of these times.
As we journey deeper into these prophetic insights, our conversation shifts to the anticipated spiritual awakening and cleansing within the church—an essential precursor to the end-time harvest. Reflecting on the parable of the wise and foolish virgins, we underscore the importance of spiritual readiness. The discussion extends to the manifestation of the Obadiah War and its connection to prophecies in Psalm 83 and Isaiah 17, contemplating potential events like the destruction of Damascus. We also provide a glimpse into future episodes where we will tackle post-rapture events, including divine judgments. The episode closes with a heartfelt priestly blessing, emphasizing the vital need for peace and grace in these tumultuous times.

Fresh off the heels of Donald Trump being reelected as President of the United States, the Pastor to Pastor Podcast asks the question, "Does politics have a place in the pulpit, or does it create unnecessary division and distraction from our true mission?" Join Pastors Seth Odom and Jason Waston, as we tackle this challenging question head-on in our latest episode. We passionately argue that our sermons should transcend political affiliations and focus on the eternal kingdom of Jesus Christ. By guiding our congregations with biblical truth, we can encourage informed decisions rooted in scripture rather than political bias, thereby fostering unity and spiritual growth. Our discussion reiterates the transformative power of the gospel, which surpasses any earthly political system and calls us to shepherd souls towards Christ.
Throughout our conversation, we emphasize the critical role pastors play in leading their flock according to biblical principles not popular political views. By preserving the integrity of our message and avoiding worldly agendas, we set a powerful example for unity within the church. We also delve into the significance of accountability in Christian speech and actions, reminding ourselves and our listeners of the impact our words can have on others. Drawing from biblical scriptures and personal experiences, we challenge fellow Christians to prioritize their ambassadorship for Christ over personal opinions, ensuring our lives reflect the values we preach. Join us for a thought-provoking and spiritually enriching conversation that challenges conventional views and strives for a deeper understanding of our Christian responsibility.

Ever wondered how a Facebook rivalry could lead to a deeper understanding of faith? Join us, Pastor Jason Watson and Pastor Seth Odom, as we recount our incredible experiences on recent missions trips, from my awe-inspiring voyage down the Amazon River in Peru to Jason's life-changing worship moment that resulted in an unplanned mission to India.
In this episode, we reveal the profound impact of stepping out in faith and the significance of the Great Commission in every believer's life. Hear about Pastor Jason and Seth's extraordinary experience raising over $8,000 in just two months with the help of supportive friends and fellow believers, illustrating God's wondrous provision. We also discuss True Christ Life, our missions ministry that is making strides in India, Peru, and beyond, as we prepare to train new team members for the work ahead. Our dialogue underscores the necessity of missions in strengthening one's faith and spreading the gospel.
We shift our focus to living missionally and emulating Christ-like behavior in our daily lives. From sharing simple acts of kindness to engaging in meaningful conversations about Jesus, we explore how every day presents opportunities for mission work. Reflecting on cultural receptiveness to the message of Christ, especially noting the openness of many Americans to prayer, we emphasize the importance of living a purpose-driven life. Inspired by the blessings from Numbers 6, we encourage you to take actionable steps towards embracing a missional lifestyle and sharing this journey with others to build a community centered around faith and mission.

09/30/24 • 30 min
What happens when two pastors unite their efforts to share the gospel, inspiring hundreds across continents? We reconnect after a brief hiatus and dive straight into the episode with Pastor Seth and Pastor Jason as Seth shares his recent experiences from his mission trip to India, shedding light on the trials and triumphs that come with spreading the gospel in unfamiliar lands. Through personal stories and heartfelt reflections, we explore the dynamic nature of mission trips and the profound impact they have on both the missionaries and the communities they serve.
The episode takes an emotional turn as we celebrate extraordinary outcomes from our mission work, including 877 salvations, confirmed healings, and deliverance from demonic possession. We emphasize the importance of planting spiritual seeds and allowing the Holy Spirit to move in people’s hearts. Highlighting that true faith extends beyond Sunday services, we call for Christians to be active doers of the Word. This chapter serves as a poignant reminder of the power of prayer, community, and a genuine pursuit of Christ.
Finally, we tackle a pressing issue: the urgent need for preaching repentance and the unfiltered truth of the gospel. Drawing from New Testament examples, we discuss how the early apostles boldly grew the church by emphasizing repentance. We critique the modern church’s tendency to dilute the gospel message, stressing that true transformation comes from preaching the full gospel, even if it means facing persecution. As we wrap up, we encourage listeners to engage with the podcast, share their faith, and connect with others. Thank you for tuning in; we look forward to continuing these meaningful discussions.

Brace yourself for a thought-provoking exploration of the Great Tribulation and the anticipated reign of Christ alongside the insightful Pastor Michael Edds.

This episode challenges the way we perceive technology's role in the end times, examining AI soldiers and laser-equipped satellites, while urging us to reflect on the impact of these innovations on our spiritual journey.
As the anticipation builds, we paint a vivid picture of the prophesied return of Jesus Christ and the liberation of Israel's remnant. Through references to Micah, Isaiah, and Zechariah, we traverse the chaotic battle of Armageddon, the ultimate defeat of the Antichrist, and the symbolic events marking Jesus’ triumphant second coming. Witness the transformation from his humble beginnings to a victorious reign, where the church assumes its role as co-heirs in a thousand-year era of peace and justice—a restoration likened to Eden itself.
Our journey concludes with a reflection on the prophetic alignment of nations and the preparations for the third temple in Jerusalem. As we stand on the cusp of these monumental events, we emphasize the duty of winning souls and spreading hope in anticipation of Jesus' return.

What if embracing change could unlock a deeper connection in your personal faith journey? Join me, along with Pastor Jason Watson, as we explore the compelling dynamics of change in our lives and churches. Together, we confront the discomfort of resisting, resenting, and retreating from change, and urge you to consider how staying stuck in the past can hinder growth. By opening ourselves to the new possibilities God has in store, especially when traditions shift, we can transform division into opportunity for renewed worship and community.
Pastor Jason and I also dive into the transformative power of faith in Jesus Christ, challenging the limiting belief of "that's just who I am." Through scripture and personal reflection, we illustrate how a renewed mind, anchored in God's word, can guide us through life’s inevitable changes. The unchanging nature of God’s love, purpose, and word offers a foundation of hope and assurance, especially as we navigate cultural shifts. Romans 8:28 shines as a beacon, reminding us that all things work together for those who love God, providing a lens to focus on the unseen and eternal.
In our concluding conversation, we examine the themes of repentance, holiness, and spiritual maturity. We use biblical teachings to highlight the necessity of a life dedicated to God, drawing parallels with modern life and common misconceptions about God's presence. Embracing a lifestyle of continual spiritual renewal, we emphasize the importance of preparing ourselves for God's presence, just as Esther did before meeting the king. Through candid discussions, we hope to inspire you to reject the misleading notion of following your heart, urging reliance on God’s guidance for true transformation and readiness.

Forgiveness isn't just a command; it's a transformative journey that can radically change your life. Imagine breaking free from the chains of unforgiveness that have held you back, preventing you from truly experiencing spiritual freedom. In our latest episode, we promise to guide you through the profound teachings shared at the Lion Church, where we unravel the intricate relationship between forgiveness, accountability, and spiritual well-being.

Through the captivating parable of the unforgiving servant and the compelling story of Joseph, we illustrate how forgiveness can serve a greater purpose in our lives, particularly amidst betrayal and hurt. Discover how prioritizing your love for God over personal grievances can lead to profound personal growth and spiritual restoration, and how embracing the scars of our past is a testament to healing and redemption.
In a world where unforgiveness can imprison us spiritually, this episode invites you to reflect deeply on your heart's condition.

Unraveling Deliverance: Steps To Spiritual Freedom Ep. 3
Pastor to Pastor
08/26/24 • 25 min
What if the key to breaking free from your deepest struggles is simply being honest with yourself and God? Join us to explore the critical first step towards spiritual deliverance. Together, we unpack the transformative power of confession and repentance, supported by scriptures such as James 5:16, Psalms 32:5, and 1 John 1:9. This isn't just about admitting faults; it's about allowing God's light to shine into the darkest corners of our lives, exposing and eliminating what holds us back.
Honesty, humility, and genuine repentance—these are the cornerstones of true spiritual freedom. Pastor Jason and I dive into the importance of acknowledging our pride and embracing humility, drawing wisdom from James 4:6-7. We differentiate between superficial repentance and the heartfelt change that mourns sin and seeks real transformation. Through personal experiences and insights, we reveal the futility of living a double life and stress that true liberation comes from sincere obedience to God's will, not mere lip service.
Finally, we discuss the empowering role of the Holy Spirit in achieving spiritual freedom. We emphasize the necessity of choosing between freedom and spiritual chains, using vivid imagery and personal anecdotes to illustrate this life-changing decision. The conversation touches on the emotional and spiritual impact of sin, the importance of genuine repentance, and the necessity of forgiveness, referencing Matthew 6:14-15. We wrap up with an open invitation for those seeking deliverance to reach out for support, offering a blessing and expressing our gratitude for your dedication to this journey towards spiritual freedom.
