In this episode, we’re looking at one of Jesus’ most intimate and powerful “I Am” statements: “I am the true vine.”
Spoken just hours before His arrest, Jesus shares this image with His disciples as He prepares them for life without His physical presence. Jesus isn’t giving a lecture, He’s giving them a lifeline. The vine and branches paint a picture of deep, daily dependence. Jesus is saying, “Stay connected to Me, and My life wil...
In part six of the I Am series, Pastor Jay Tyler unpacks one of Jesus’ most exclusive and powerful claims: “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6). Pastor Jay explains how Jesus doesn’t just show us the way—He is the way, offering direction, clarity, and hope in a confused world. This message invites listeners to anchor their faith in the person of Christ, who alone leads us into relationship with God.
In this episode of Life in the Spirit, Pastor Jay Tyler continues the I Am series with Jesus’ powerful words from John 11:25, “I am the resurrection and the life.” Pastor Jay unpacks how Christ brings life in the midst of loss, hope in the face of death, and victory over the grave. This encouraging word reminds us that eternal life begins the moment we believe and that in Jesus, even what seems dead can live again.
In this episode of Life in the Spirit, Pastor Jay Tyler continues the I Am series by exploring Jesus’ powerful declaration, “I am the good shepherd” (John 10:11,14).

In this episode of Life in the Spirit, Pastor Jay Tyler continues the I Am series by focusing on Jesus’ declaration, “I am the door” (John 10:9).

T...
In this second message of our "I Am" series, we're diving into one of Jesus’ most powerful declarations: "I am the light of the world."

In this first message in the series, we begin with Jesus’ bold declaration: “I am the Bread of Life.” What did He mean by that? Why did He say it to a crowd hungry for more than just food? In this episode, we’ll uncover how Jesus meets our deepest spiritual hunger and why only He can truly satisfy our souls. Let’s dig in and discover what it means to feed on the Bread of Life.
The resurrection, a present reality, offers seven powerful benefits: forgiveness, victory over death, Christ’s lordship, eternal life, daily living power, living hope, and new life. Pastor Jay Tyler challenges us to see resurrection power beyond the future. In John 11, Jesus declares, “I am the resurrection and the life,” offering new life now through the Holy Spirit. Are you experiencing newness of life?
In this episode, Pastor Tyler challenges us to confront the excuses that keep us from fulfilling God's vision for our lives. Drawing from the life of Moses, we explore how fear, comfort, and past failures can hold us back—but how God's call always comes with His presence and power. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a season or unqualified to serve, this message will inspire you to step out in faith and into God’s purpose for your life.
...Proverbs 29:18 reminds us that without divine revelation, people live without restraint — doing what is right in their own eyes rather than following God's direction.
We explore how our sinful nature often distorts our spiritual vision, leading us away from faith and into self-centered living. Pastor Jay emphasizes the urgency of the Great Commission, the calling to "go and make disciples," empowered by the Holy Spirit. Drawing fro...
Welcome to Life in the Spirit! In this episode, we continue our series, Where There Is Vision, by exploring how God’s plan and purpose for our lives align with the mission of the Great Commission. Jesus didn’t just give us a task—He gave us a vision for transforming the world through the gospel. When we embrace His call, we discover that His mission is our purpose.
In this episode of Life in the Spirit, we continue our series Where There is Vision by reinforcing the truth that God has a plan and a purpose for our lives. Vision is more than just seeing—it’s understanding and aligning ourselves with God’s divine direction. However, our flesh, distractions, and other influences can distort our spiritual vision, making it difficult to fully grasp God’s plans. Join us as we explore how to overcome...
In this episode of Life in the Spirit, we continue our series by exploring the importance of having a vision for those lost in sin. God is no respecter of persons—His salvation is for all. We look at the powerful story of Peter and Cornelius in Acts 10, where Peter, led by the Holy Spirit, breaks through cultural and religious barriers to bring the gospel to a Gentile household. This moment not only transformed Cornelius and his fa...
In this message from our "Where There is Vision" series, we explore Paul's vision of the man from Macedonia in Acts 16. This pivotal moment wasn't just about direction—it was about divine calling and obedience to God's mission.
God has a plan and purpose for your life, but the biggest obstacle is often ourselves. When we surrender our own desires, we can see, understand, and walk in God’s preferred future. Vision is the ability to perceive His plans and step forward in faith. It all begins in Christ—where we truly get out of our own way.
In this powerful episode of Life in the Spirit, Pastor Jay Tyler explores one of the most profound moments in Scripture—the prayer of the criminal on the cross. As Jesus hung between two criminals, one chose to mock Him while the other humbly recognized his need for salvation. With just a few simple words, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom” (Luke 23:42), this man demonstrated repentance, faith, and a revelation of...
In this episode of Life in the Spirit, we explore the incredible power of corporate prayer as seen in Acts 12, where the early church interceded for Peter while he was imprisoned. This passage reminds us that when the church prays together, miracles happen, strongholds are broken, and God’s purposes prevail.
Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane stands as a powerful example for all believers. In the face of overwhelming pressure and distress, He prays with deep humility and complete submission to the Father’s will, showing us the heart of true surrender.
