  • Holiness Through Worship (Part 1) | Eric Upton | Year of Holiness
    May 19 2025

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.


    Worship, what does it mean and why is it important?

    This weeks episode emphasizes that worship is not just a ritual or performance, but a deep, heartfelt response to encountering the living God. True worship comes from understanding who God is and what He has done through His deliverance, grace, and presence. Worship must be spirit-filled, unified, and intentional. It is both personal and communal, and it pleases God when it flows from a place of holiness and reverence.


    🔑 Key Takeaways:

    Worship is a Response to God’s Presence:

    • It's not about music or emotion alone—true worship is a response to encountering God's nature and deeds.

    Scripture: Exodus 15:1-2 – Moses and Israel worshipped after experiencing God's deliverance.

    Worship Must Be Spirit-Filled:

    • The Holy Spirit enables deep and sincere worship.

    Scripture: Acts 2:1-4 – The outpouring of the Spirit brought unity and bold worship.

    Worship Reflects Our Knowledge of God:

    • The more we know God (His grace, love, provision), the deeper our worship becomes.

    Unity is Essential in Worship:

    • God is pleased when His people worship together in unity.
    • Disunity can hinder worship and its spiritual impact.

    Worship is Holy:

    • Holiness is key. Worship that pleases God comes from pure hearts set apart for Him.

    Scripture: Revelation 15:3 – The song of the redeemed is a song of holiness and awe.

    Worship is Both Individual and Communal:

    • You worship God in your personal life, but corporate worship brings powerful expressions of unity and praise.

    Worship is Overflow, Not Obligation:

    • It’s not about duty; it’s about overflow—letting what’s in your heart pour out in response to who God is.

  • Stand Firm | Eric Upton | The Year Of Holiness
    May 13 2025

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.

    This week at Kingdom Culture, Pastor Eric brings a bold word from Exodus 14: Stand Firm! When resistance shows up, it’s not always a sign to retreat—it’s often God’s invitation to trust Him deeper.

    In one of the most iconic moments in Scripture, God doesn’t lead His people around the sea—He makes a way through it. This message will challenge you to drop the habits of control, blame, and escape and embrace a new way of standing: with confidence, clarity, and the fire of God’s presence.

    🔥 Key Takeaways:

    ✅ Resistance doesn’t mean retreat—it’s time to stand firm.

    ✅ You don’t need clarity—you need obedience.

    ✅ The enemy may chase, but the Lord goes before you.

    ✅ Glory follows obedience—always.

    ✅ Revival requires resistance… and a people who won’t back down.

  • Holy Is The Lamb | Eric Upton | The Year Of Holiness
    Apr 21 2025

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.

    Easter isn’t just a holiday—it’s a holy collision of justice, mercy, and redemption.

    In this episode, Pastor Eric takes us to Exodus 12 and the cross of Christ, revealing the powerful parallel between the Passover lamb and the Lamb of God. Sin separated us—but Jesus, the Holy Lamb, stepped in.

    From the garden to the upper room, from Egypt to Calvary—God has always made a way for His people through the blood of the Lamb. This isn’t just a rescue story. It’s a resurrection story.

    🔥 Key Takeaways:

    ✅ Sin separates—but Jesus reconciles

    ✅ Every home in Egypt had either a dead lamb or a dead son

    ✅ Jesus was both the Son and the Lamb

    ✅ Faith that obeys leads to freedom

    ✅ You can’t cover your sin—but the Lamb’s blood can

    The Lamb was slain. The tomb is empty. You are invited in.

  • Pride Kills Holiness | Eric Upton | The Year Of Holiness
    Apr 14 2025

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.

    What’s the fastest way to block holiness in your life? Pride.

    In this episode, Pastor Eric unpacks Exodus 10 and calls out the sneaky ways pride creeps in and chokes out your ability to walk in surrender, intimacy, and the presence of God.

    From Pharaoh’s stubbornness to our own modern-day resistance, this message hits hard—and calls us higher.

    Humility isn’t just a virtue; it’s a requirement for holiness. Pride says “I’m the main character.” But holiness starts when we get off the throne and give God His rightful place.

    🔥 Key Takeaways:

    ✅ Pride blocks holiness by making you think you’re the main character

    ✅ Humility is submitting to God—even when it seems foolish

    ✅ Compromise is pride in disguise

    ✅ The fear of the Lord leads to surrender

    ✅ Pride leads to darkness—humility leads to light

    It’s time to let pride die, so holiness can rise. Let Jesus increase and let us decrease.

  • The Fear of The Lord | Eric Upton | The Year of Holiness
    Apr 7 2025

    Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.

    What does it really mean to walk in the fear of the Lord? In this episode, Pastor Eric unpacks Exodus 9 and shows us that fearing God isn’t about terror—it’s about reverence, awe, and obedience.

    The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom—and it’s what separates casual belief from deep, transformative intimacy with Jesus. Pharaoh’s hardened heart shows us what happens when we resist God’s voice, but those who fear the Lord respond with surrender, worship, and holiness.

    💥 Key Takeaways:

    ✅ Fear of the Lord = honor, not horror

    ✅ Reverence brings you closer to God, not further

    ✅ Stubbornness blocks the fear of the Lord

    ✅ Radical obedience flows from a tender conscience

    ✅ Fearing God means choosing His voice over every other


    🔥 The fear of the Lord leads to intimacy, not distance.

  • Set Apart For God | Eric Upton | The Year of Holiness
    Apr 2 2025

    What does it mean to be truly set apart for God? In this episode, Pastor Eric takes us through Exodus 8–9 and reveals how redemption isn’t just about rescue—it’s about being repositioned for worship, presence, and purpose.

    God makes a clear distinction between His people and the world. And through the blood of Jesus, we’ve been called out of captivity and into a life marked by holiness, freedom, and daily obedience.

    🩸 Redemption has a purpose, a place, and a promise.

    But don’t get it twisted—freedom without obedience is just another form of compromise.


    🔥 Key Takeaways:

    ✅ You don’t pay the price of redemption—but you get all the rewards

    ✅ God doesn’t just call us out of Egypt—He calls us into His presence

    ✅ Holiness isn’t perfection, it’s surrender

    ✅ Being “set apart” isn’t optional—it’s part of your Kingdom identity

    ✅ Don’t compromise your freedom just to stay comfortable
