Alliance Church is a Bible-based church in Wisconsin. What is this church all about? It's simple - our vision is to connect the world with God and one another. We're ordinary people who get to be part of the extraordinary work of connecting the world with Jesus. You matter to Him and because of that, you matter to us. This podcast includes Sunday messages from our campus in Appleton, WI. Our primary teachers are Rev. Brian Episcopo, Rev. Brandon Hilstad, and Dr. Dennis Espiscopo.

How do you read the Bible when two verses seem to contradict each other? It's the question that has quietly divided churches, families, and friendships for centuries, and most Christians have never been given honest tools to work through it. Pastor Brian walks Alliance Church through a crash course on hermeneutics, the study of how we get from what the Bible says to what it means. He opens with a…
What does Romans 8:28 actually mean? A lot of Christians quote it in the middle of pain, but not many of us have stopped to ask if we are using it the way it was actually meant to be used. In the aftermath of the EF3 tornado that hit the Fox Valley, Pastor Brandon takes on what may be the most commonly misapplied verse in the Bible and walks the church through what it really says. This sermon…
What do you do when everything you built is taken from you in a single storm? Almost no one thinks that question will ever land on them personally, and then one day it does. Pastor Brian preached this message to a congregation whose city had just been devastated by an EF3 tornado, and the answer he gave is one every person is going to need at some point. In this sermon, Pastor Brian opens with a…
Why do good people quietly go bad? Almost everyone has watched it happen. Someone who used to be genuinely humble, generous, and grounded starts succeeding, and slowly, in a way nobody can quite name, they become someone their friends and family barely recognize. Pastor Trevor unpacks a 2,800 year old story that names the pattern perfectly. In this sermon, Pastor Trevor walks through the life of…
Why are you so tired all the time even when you sleep? A lot of us have been trying to sleep off, vacation off, or scroll off an exhaustion that no bed can actually fix. It is not physical. It is soul deep. And Pastor Brian says most of us are carrying a weight we were never built to carry. In this sermon, Pastor Brian opens the story of King Amaziah in 2 Chronicles 25. The Bible describes Amaziah…
How do you pass on your faith to the next generation? You can spend a lifetime building something good, a family, a career, a walk with God, and still watch it unravel in a single generation. If you have ever wondered why kids walk away from faith, or why the things that matter most to you do not seem to stick with the people you love, this message is for you.In this teaching, Pastor Brian opens…
Why does your faith get weaker when your life gets better? Most of us have felt it and never said it out loud. When things fall apart, we cling to God. When things fall together, we quietly forget him. And nobody warns you about the second one.In this sermon, Pastor Josiah opens up one of the most sobering stories in the Bible, King Solomon, to teach us why starting strong is nothing like…
Why does God allow suffering when he's supposed to be in control? Most of us have asked it quietly, especially when we hear about Christians around the world losing everything just for following Jesus. The answer is something nobody can give you better than someone who has lived through it.In this sermon, Pastor Job from Burkina Faso (the president of the Burkina Faso Alliance and a partner of our…

No script, no preselected questions, no editing. Just real pastoral answers to the things people are actually wrestling with.Pastor Brian and Dr. Dennis Episcopo open…
Why does your spiritual life feel stuck right now? You know you are supposed to love God with everything you've got, but it feels more like an obligation than a fire. You sing the songs. You show up. You try to want it. And still, something feels distant.In this sermon, Dr. Mark Harris opens our brand new series Counterfeit Kings by walking us through the only person in the entire Bible of whom it…
