This is not a brand. This is not a ministry of comfort and compromise. This is a battlefield.

This is not a diluted, sugar-coated, watered-down message designed to stroke your flesh. This is not a place where you’re told you’re fine while you’re still a slave to sin.

If you came looking for soft words to justify a dead life—you’re in the wrong place. If you came looking for a feel-good gospel that lets you keep your idols—you will be wrecked here. If you came looking for truth that burns hotter than compromise—you’re home.

This is the front line where dead religion dies, and real faith rises. Where the cross isn’t a slogan—it’s a death sentence to the flesh. Where Jesus isn’t an accessory—He’s the King who demands your life.

You must die to your flesh—or Christ will not live in you. There is no resurrection without crucifixion. Die now to your flesh—so that you can truly live in Jesus Christ.

Choose where you stand. Awaken. Arise. Burn.

Who I Am

My name is Daniel Stone. I was raised in church, but I never knew Jesus. I knew how to say “Amen,” how to dress the part, how to play the Sunday role—but inside I was hollow. Lost. Drowning.

At 15, I stopped pretending. I walked away. I didn’t want religion. I didn’t want rules. I wanted the world. By 17, church was a joke to me. I ran with the streets. I lived in rebellion. I chased pleasure and violence and whatever felt good in the moment. And hell clapped while I destroyed myself.

I landed in prison—and even then, I didn’t change. I picked up the Bible, but I still lived in the flesh. I knew the words, but not the God who wrote them. It wasn’t until a man named Brother Taylor looked me in the eye and told me the truth that something began to shake. He didn’t hand me a soft gospel. He didn’t offer me a motivational speech. He warned me. He told me I was headed to hell, and I believed him.

But even after I got out—I went right back. Right back to the vomit. Right back to the darkness. The truth didn’t change me because I hadn’t surrendered. I still wanted control. I still wanted comfort. I still wanted Jesus on Sunday and sin the rest of the week.

And it almost killed me.

But then one day—everything broke. It was like the Red Sea moment in reverse. I wasn’t walking through the miracle. I was standing in the middle, and the LORD let the waters crash down. He drowned me in Himself. And I’ll never be the same.

Now I don’t live for money. I don’t live for praise. I live for fire. I live to burn for Jesus Christ.

Not the watered-down version the world made up. Not the churchy Jesus you only worship when life is good. I’m talking about the real Jesus. The consuming fire, the Lamb who is also the Lion, the King who is coming with judgment and glory.

That’s the Jesus who saved me. And that’s the Jesus I preach. No compromise. No games. No half-truths.

If you’re looking for cute, I’m not your guy. But if you’re desperate for the real thing—the raw, unfiltered truth that will wreck your comfort and set your soul on fire—then welcome. Because I’m not here to entertain. I’m here to awaken.

What It Means to Be Awakened

Because the church is asleep in the middle of a war.
Because too many who call themselves by His name are living in compromise.
Because Jesus came to save that which is lost—
but in today’s church, the lost stay lost because no one dares to tell them the truth.
Instead of calling people out of sin, pastors are telling them how to feel better about yourself while staying in it.
They’re preaching peace where there is no peace.
The pulpit has gone quiet.
The fear of man has replaced the fear of the LORD.
We have leaders more afraid of offending people than offending God.
They tiptoe around truth.
They avoid the word “sin.”
They preach a gospel that doesn’t save—because it doesn’t confront.
And most of these pastors?
They’re not shepherds.
They’re motivational speakers in suits—feeding the flesh with self-help sermons and calling it faith.
They say, “You’re good, you’re great, you’re wonderful.”
They preach, “Live your best life now.”
But the Gospel of Jesus Christ is not a feel-good message.
It’s not about feeling better—
It’s about dying.
Dying to sin.
Dying to self.
Dying to the flesh.
Because you cannot please the LORD in the flesh.
And if you’re doing anything in yourself—then you are not walking in Him.
The true Gospel calls you to pick up your cross—not your dreams.
It calls you to crucify your flesh—not celebrate it.
It demands repentance, not self-esteem.
It calls you to lose your life—so that you can finally live.
But that message?
It’s been replaced.
Twisted.
Commercialized.
The message has been watered down.
Sugar-coated.
Diluted.
They’ve stripped the Gospel of its power—
Traded conviction for comfort,
Repentance for relevance,
Holiness for hype.
Yes, Jesus says, “Come as you are.”
But today’s church has stopped preaching what comes next:
Let Him change you.
Let Him burn away the sin, the pride, the lies, the rebellion.
Let Him crucify your flesh and raise you up in resurrection power.
But that’s not the message being preached.
What’s being preached today is a lie dressed in Christian language—
A message that says, “Stay the same, God understands,”
Instead of:
“Be transformed—He is holy.”
This is why Awakened in Christ exists.
To confront this lie.
To break the silence.
To wake the Bride.
To call out the wolves.
To feed the sheep.
To declare with unshakable boldness:
The time of playing games is over.
The time for judgment is here.
And the time is NOW.
The shaking has already begun.
And judgment will not start in the world.
It begins in the house of God.
It is time for the church to WAKE UP.
It is time to cast down the idols.
It is time to call sin what it is—SIN.
No more dancing around it.
No more justifying it.
No more disguising rebellion with religious language.
We’re not here to entertain goats.
We’re not here to sugarcoat rebellion.
We’re not here to keep people comfortable while they drift into hell.
We’re here to preach what Jesus actually said—
not the sanitized version the culture tolerates.
Because Jesus is not returning for a lukewarm church.
He’s not coming back for a people who blended in with the world.
He’s coming for a Bride that’s been washed, purified, awakened, and set on fire.
So we cry loud.
We spare not.
We confront the comfortable.
We comfort the repentant.
We expose the counterfeit.
We call the broken into real deliverance.
Awakened in Christ exists to:
Call the lukewarm out of slumber
Call the compromised out of comfort
Call the religious out of self-righteousness
And call the broken into the fire of true freedom
This isn’t a brand.
It’s not a platform.
It’s not a ministry built for man.
It is a call to war.
It’s a trumpet blast in the middle of a sleeping generation.
It’s a firestorm forged in the secret place—
and unleashed to tear down every false altar.
Because the time is short.
Hell is filling up.
And eternity doesn’t care how many followers you had
Or how many people liked your church page.
It only asks:
Were you holy?
Were you His?
Were you awake?
This is why we exist:
To prepare the Bride.
To confront the lie.
To preach the real Gospel.
And to make war on everything that dares to stand against the LORD.
Awakened in Christ is not an option.
It’s a call from Heaven.
And the time is NOW.
