Lance Johnson Ministries

Relevate Church

Lance Johnson comes by way of a life of struggles having been trapped by the unrelenting grip of alcohol and drug addiction and the desperate life style that comes with it. He brings a fresh word that is woven into the fabric of a life that has known the agony of an empty soul. One early fall day in September of 1990 he had an encounter with the King of Kings that not only changed him but has eternally altered the lives of thousands that now proclaim along with him that “When Jesus sets you free you are completely free”. Pastor Lance now reaches into depths of his experience to deliver a starkly real story of freedom by the power of God. Now he only looks back to encourage those that are lagging behind. He has spent almost a quarter of a century rescuing people from a background of death and ruin and introducing them to a life of prosperity and liberty. Lance has pioneered addiction recovery ministries as well as numerous churches. He has planted bible colleges and overseas mission works, thereby reaching people from every walk of life and social background. He has introduced vast numbers of people to a victorious, overcoming lifestyle. He is currently the founder and Senior Pastor of Relevate Church with two locations in Woodstock GA and Ranger GA. He is also the founder and teacher at Lions Gate Ministry Training Academy.

Member or Follower? Finding Your True Path

Episode Overview

Being a follower of Jesus requires full commitment.
Church attendance alone doesn't define your faith.
Miracles serve as evidence of Jesus' divine mission.
Family should not deter your spiritual devotion.

“"If you're not sold out, then you're for sale."”

What makes someone a true follower rather than just a member? Bishop Lance Johnson dives into this question with passion and insight in his latest episode, "Are You A Member Or A Follower? Part 1." Drawing from personal experiences and biblical teachings, Bishop Lance emphasises the importance of quality over quantity in our spiritual lives. He challenges the belief that church success is measured by attendance numbers, instead highlighting the depth of individual relationships with Jesus.

Bishop Lance takes listeners through the scriptures, particularly focusing on Luke Chapter 14, to illustrate how Jesus ministered to the masses but valued deep connections with a few. He points out that being a follower of Jesus means more than just attending church; it's about living a life devoted to His teachings and setting an example for others. In his characteristic style, Bishop Lance weaves in light-hearted anecdotes and powerful messages, urging listeners to evaluate their own commitments.

Are you sold out to Jesus, or are you simply a part of the crowd? This episode is not just a sermon but a call to action for anyone seeking a deeper, more meaningful faith journey. So, are you ready to become a true follower?
