Maintain the Flame with Keith Collins

The Role of the Church

The role of the Church is to be light in the midst of darkness. She is not to conform to the world but to reflect the purposes of the Lord in a culture that resists Him. Join me this week as I share some important truths about the role of followers of Jesus and how that we must be willing to be different in the world that we are in.

God's Heart for the Nations

Join me this week live from Italy as my dear friends Ken Pounders, Eric Miller, and myself discuss God's love for the nations as well as share about the incredible time of ministry we have had in Gela, Sicily (Italy) over the last several days. Prepare to be blessed and stirred!

Embracing & Stewarding a God-Birthed Vision

A vision from the Lord instilled into the heart of an individual is more than a noble idea or endeavor. When the Lord instills His mandate into our hearts, we are never the same again. As we study the lives of those who impacted their generation with the Gospel, we behold those who faithfully fulfilled their holy calling. Join me on "Maintain the Flame" this week as I share on the subject of "Embracing & Stewarding a God-Birthed Vision."

The Joy of Holiness

There is a direct connection between a life of holiness and joy. Despite the fact that many misunderstand and even misinterpret the Biblical definition of holiness, the fact remains that we are called to live a life of righteousness, obedience, and holiness. Join me on "Maintain the Flame" this week and prepare to be deeply encouraged and challenged as I share on the theme, "The Joy of Holiness."

Grace through Transparency

There is a trap that many believers fall into. This place is one of living a life void of transparency. When we cease to be transparent before the Lord, others, and even ourselves, it is then that the enemy can get a foothold and eventually cause destruction. However, there is divine grace available to those who chose to live open before the Lord. Join me this week on "Maintain the Flame" as I share some vital truths that will help you to live in freedom and to walk in righteousness.

Beholding Jesus

When Jesus is rightly seen in His glory, it is then that hearts are set ablaze. The great need of this generation is to have God's people know Him and make Him known. Join me on "Maintain the Flame" this week as I share an important message that is sure to stir your heart and cause you to yearn for a deeper experience with the Lord.

We Need Another Great Awakening

Please join me this week on my "Maintain the Flame" podcast as I share with Brian Guerin some key elements related to our desperate need for another Great Awakening in America. It is no secret that our nation continues to spiral downward and the only real hope is for the church to get revived and for the nation to be awakened. Be prepared to be stirred by this timely episode.

A Divine Interruption

The life of Samuel was one of divine interruption. He shows up on the scene in Israel during a season of darkness, compromise, tolerated perversion among the high priest Eli's sons, etc. His very presence represented the Word of God, and his prophetic calling was one based on righteousness, the worship of the God of Israel alone and an adherence to the requirements of God's precepts among His people. This week on Maintain the Flame I share Part 1 of a message recently preached at a Church in Charlotte, NC entitled, "A Divine Interruption." Be prepared to be challenged and encouraged by what you hear.

Full Grown Sin

The Bible is very clear in James the first chapter that sin has a cycle to it. The fact is that when one acts on their lustful desires there is a door that opens that many times leads to bondage and even death. This is clearly true for people who do not follow Jesus. However, even among those who profess Jesus as Lord, there is still a pathway that can lead to sin, which when matured can even cause spiritual shipwreck as the Apostle Paul mentions. This week be prepared to be challenged by what you hear in this message entitled, "Full Grown Sin."

Living in the Light of Eternity

To be a follower Jesus means that our lives must consist of a mindset that is eternal. Our passion, focus, and agenda must consist of a view that is altogether eternal. We must refuse to become intertwined with the spirit of this age and do as Paul instructs in Colossians 3:2 by "setting our minds on things above..." Be prepared to be challenged and encouraged this week as you listen to a message entitled, "Living in the Light of Eternity."
