Through the lives of Hannah, Daniel, and Jesus in Gethsemane, we discover that true prayer is honest, consistent, and surrendered; prayer that pours out the heart, shapes our character, and aligns us with God’s will. This message invites you to return to the secret place, draw closer to God, and experience the strength, clarity, and transformation that only prayer can bring.

In this message, Pastor Jay sounds the alarm on one of the most subtle but dangerous threats to a believer’s spiritual life, neglecting prayer and the Word of God. Drawing from Scripture and real-life examples, he reveals how spiritual drift doesn’t begin with rebellion but with distraction. When prayer fades and devotion to Scripture weakens, the fire of our relationship with God begins to cool, feelings start replacing faith, and...

In this powerful message, Pastor Jay sounds the alarm on one of the most deceptive spiritual dangers, pride and self-reliance. Pride doesn’t always appear as arrogance; it often begins quietly, when dependence on God weakens and self-confidence replaces surrender. Yet there is hope, pride ends when we humble ourselves before the Lord. Revival begins not when we rise up, but when we bow down in surrender, declaring, “God, I need You...

In this timely and convicting message, Pastor Jay exposes one of the enemy’s most effective strategies against the church, the danger of division and offense. Using Scripture and practical insight, he reveals how offense is the seed from which division grows, how pride deepens wounds by preventing forgiveness, and how disunity weakens the church’s witness to a watching world. Yet, through humility, forgiveness, and Christlike love,...

In this message, Pastor Jay sounds the alarm on one of the greatest spiritual threats facing the modern church, the danger of lukewarmness. Drawing from Jesus’ words to the church of Laodicea in Revelation, Pastor Jay exposes how comfort can quietly replace commitment, how passion fades into routine, and how purpose is lost when believers grow spiritually apathetic. Discover how to rekindle your spiritual fire, return to your first...

In part two of A Clear and Present Danger, Pastor Jay Tyler sounds the alarm on the danger of moral compromise, the slow erosion of conviction that leads to spiritual decay. Drawing from Daniel’s faith in Babylon and Jesus’ warning to the church at Pergamos, Pastor Jay exposes how compromise begins when conviction weakens, grows when culture becomes our standard, and spreads when sin is tolerated instead of confronted. Yet there is...

In this powerful opening message of the series A Clear and Present Danger, Pastor Jay Tyler sounds the spiritual alarm about one of the greatest threats facing believers today, deception. From the Garden of Eden to our modern culture, Satan’s oldest strategy has always been to twist God’s truth with subtle lies. Pastor Jay exposes how deception often looks like truth, spreads through spiritual neglect, and can only be resisted thro...

In this message, Pastor Jay Tyler concludes the Walking by Faith series by reminding us that faith isn’t a one time decision, it’s a daily lifestyle. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:7, “For we walk by faith, not by sight,” he teaches that true faith trusts God beyond what we can see, obeys Him day by day, endures through life’s trials, and keeps its eyes fixed on eternity. Faith isn’t about ignoring reality, it’s about believing God’s...

In this message from our Walking by Faith series, Pastor Jay explores what it truly means to have “faith that moves mountains.” Drawing from Matthew 17 and Mark 11, we see that Jesus wasn’t calling us to have a giant, flawless faith, but a genuine, mustard-seed kind of faith, small yet powerful when placed in a great God. Pastor Jay reminds us that real faith doesn’t ignore our problems; it confronts them, looks to God instead of t...

In this episode, we’re talking about Faith in the Fire. Walking by faith isn’t just about believing when life feels easy, it’s about trusting God when the heat is turned up. Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, our faith will be tested, but those fiery moments don’t come to destroy us; they come to refine us. Real faith says, “I won’t bow, even if it costs me.” It chooses God over compromise, trusts Him with the outcome, and find...

In this first part of the Walking by Faith series, we explore what true biblical faith really is. The Bible says it’s impossible, not just difficult, to please God without faith (Hebrews 11:6). But faith is more than just belief. Belief acknowledges truth, but faith acts on it. Abraham didn’t just believe God’s promises; he left home and followed. The heroes of Hebrews 11 weren’t remembered for what they believed, but for what they...

In part four of our Come and See, Go and Tell series, we explore what it means to be the light of the world. Jesus has not only saved us but also sent us. Evangelism isn’t optional, it’s the mission of every believer. We are not stuck where we are; we are sent to shine in our families, workplaces, neighborhoods, and communities. Even small acts, like a prayer, a kind word, or an invitation can have eternal impact. Your mission fiel...

When Jesus called Peter and Andrew by the Sea of Galilee, He wasn’t inviting them to a casual belief, He was summoning them to leave everything and follow Him. That same call reaches us today: to drop our nets, burn the ships, and step fully into His mission of being fishers of men. Discover how new life in Christ, the empowering of the Holy Spirit, and total surrender equip us to follow Jesus wholeheartedly and share His gospel wi...

Pastor Jay Tyler continues the series Come and See, Go and Tell with part two: Empowered to Be a Witness. Jesus never intended us to carry out His mission in our own strength. He promised us the power of the Holy Spirit, power to boldly share the gospel starting where we are and reaching to the ends of the earth. Join us as we discover the promise, the purpose, the plan, and the partnership of the Spirit’s power that makes us effec...

In this first message of the Come & See, Go & Tell series, Pastor Jay Tyler challenges us to see people the way Jesus sees them. From Matthew 9:35–38, we discover five key insights into Christ’s heart for the lost: He was among the people, saw their needs, felt compassion, recognized the potential of the harvest, and called His disciples to pray and go. This message reminds us that the gospel begins with an invitation to “c...

In this challenging yet grace filled message, Pastor Jay Tyler confronts a sobering reality: it's possible to identify as a Christian without truly following Jesus. Drawing from Jesus’ words in Matthew 7 and other key scriptures, this sermon calls us to examine our faith beyond cultural labels and outward appearances. Are we carrying Christ’s name without carrying His cross? Are we professing faith without possession, practicing re...
