Podcast - Grace Life

In this opening message of our June series, we step into a powerful rediscovery of the person, power, and presence of the Holy Spirit. Far from a mysterious force or an abstract idea, Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity—eternal, intelligent, emotional, and deeply personal. Using Jesus' own words in John 16, we're introduced to the Spirit as our Advocate, Comforter, and Revealer. He's not an “it”, but a “He”—the very mind and heart of God made present and active in our lives. Holy Spirit is not here to confuse or conceal, but to guide, clarify, empower, and uncover the hidden treasures of the Kingdom already given to us in Christ. This episode will stir your faith to not just learn about Holy Spirit—but to encounter Him. From the Scriptures to your quiet time, in worship or even standing in line at Starbucks, He is speaking. The question is: Are you listening? Prepare for a fresh unveiling of spiritual truth as we allow the Author of Scripture to illuminate the mysteries of grace, truth, and your divine inheritance.

On this Memorial Day weekend, Pastor Jamie delivers a powerful message of freedom, healing, and identity in Week 4 of May, Loosed By Love. Drawing from the story of the bent-over woman in Luke 13, we explore how Jesus looses us from a life of limitations—whether caused by religion, circumstance, or past wounds. Many today are living like abused dogs who've been set free but still remain stuck inside invisible boundaries. But the Kingdom of God isn't about limitation—it's about relationship. In this message, we confront the dangers of religious tradition that bind, restrict, and disqualify, and we lean into the truth that love looses us to live without limits. Jesus not only saw the woman. He spoke to her. He touched her. And He defended her. What He did for her, He longs to do for each of us today.

Shake It Off in the Fire, Pastor Jamie dives deeper into the refining fire of God—not a fire meant to destroy us, but to purify, heal, and set us free. Drawing from Acts 28, we look at Paul's shipwreck and snakebite on the island of Malta. While others watched, expecting his downfall, Paul shook the viper off into the fire—and kept moving toward his purpose. The same fire that burns off what tries to harm us is the fire that purifies and empowers us. This message is a reminder that: - What attaches itself to you doesn't define you. - Your past doesn't disqualify you. - Your current trial is not your final destination.

In this special "May the 4th" kickoff to our May sermon series, we dive deep into the heart of the Gospel: God is not distant—He is WITH you, IN you, and FOR you. Using the cultural touchstone of Star Wars' “the Force,” Pastor Jamie reminds us of the true sustaining power of the universe—the presence of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit living in union with us. From the fiery furnace in Daniel to the promises of Isaiah and the Gospel of John, this message is rich with encouragement for those walking through fear, sorrow, confusion, or weakness. You'll discover how our seamless union with Christ changes everything—your identity, your emotions, your decisions, and your daily life. This is not about a fleeting visitation; it's about habitation. So today, we're not saying “May the Force be with you.” We're declaring “May you KNOW that the Father IS with you!”

This week, we continue the journey beyond Resurrection Sunday, diving deep into the revelation of our co-resurrection with Christ. We explore the powerful truth that the Cross wasn't just where our sins were dealt with — it was where the Kingdom was inaugurated, victory was won, and where we were immersed in Holy Spirit and Fire. Looking at Hebrews 12:29 and Luke 3, we confront a crucial question: Did Jesus come to bring a fire that burns us up or a fire that burns off everything that keeps us from living in the fullness of our new life? Through the stories of Elijah, John the Baptist, and Jesus' own words, we uncover the true purpose of God's consuming fire — not to destroy, but to purify, to cleanse, and to set hearts ablaze for Him. Get ready to see the Cross — and the Fire of God — in a whole new light.

In this powerful message, we are reminded that the revelation of Christ's resurrection is not just a historical event, but a present reality that transforms our lives. Without proclaiming our co-resurrection with Christ, the Gospel loses its power and purpose. We are called to relocate our thoughts to the throne room — to see ourselves co-raised, co-seated, and victorious with Jesus. The Resurrection is our invitation to walk in the newness of life, leaving the graveyard behind. Victory is not just a promise; it's a present possession for every believer. Through the Resurrection, death is defeated, and we live as more than conquerors, empowered to carry off victory in every area of life.

Welcome to Week 2 of our Easter Series: The King Is Here! On this Palm Sunday, Pastor Jamie takes us deep into the powerful meaning behind Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem — a moment charged with prophecy, passion, and purpose. From John 12, we explore how Jesus, fresh from raising Lazarus and facing opposition from the Pharisees, arrives not with sword and army, but with peace and humility, riding a donkey. This wasn't just a moment — it was a divine declaration: The King is Here. This message unpacks: The symbolism of Palm Sunday and Lamb Selection Day Why the fragrance of Mary's worship lingered into Jerusalem The contrast between Jesus' peace-filled entry and Rome's show of power The prophetic fulfillment of Zechariah 9:9–10 How you carry the fragrance of Christ today From the sounds and smells of ancient Jewish worship to the spiritual significance of the Roman victory parade, this episode paints a rich picture of how Christ's Kingdom turns expectations upside down.

Welcome to Week 1 of our powerful new Easter series, The Great I Am. This week, Pastor Jamie launches us into a deep revelation of who Jesus truly is—not just a man from history, but the eternal "I Am" who steps into our brokenness with power, grace, and presence. Drawing from Exodus 3:14 and John 8, we explore how Jesus boldly declared, "Before Abraham was, I AM." That same divine presence that spoke to Moses from a burning bush showed up in the temple courts—stooping down into the dust of human failure to rescue a woman caught in adultery. What does it mean that God stoops down, writes in our dust, and lifts us up with no condemnation? What if the Great I Am is not here to accuse you, but to redeem you? In this message, you'll discover: ✔️ The connection between God's name and His manifest presence ✔️ Why Jesus is greater than Moses and how He fulfills the law ✔️ How grace empowers us beyond performance and shame ✔️ The deep symbolism behind Jesus' actions in John 8 ✔️ Why you can walk in light—free from condemnation This is more than a sermon—it's an invitation to encounter the One who is present in your pain, your questions, and even your mess. He is here. He is enough. And because of Him—so are you.

Join us for the final week of our powerful series, Am I Enough?, where we dive into the truth of our identity in Christ. This episode unpacks Galatians 2:20-21, revealing that our worth and value do not come from our own efforts but from the finished work of Jesus. We'll explore the transformative power of awakening to who we truly are—co-crucified, co-alive, and fully embraced in God's grace. Are you still striving for identity through performance, approval, or self-effort? It's time for a defining moment—a breakthrough where you step into the freedom of knowing you are enough. Tune in as we discuss:

In this message from Bishop Jamie, we dive into The Prodigal Father, a powerful message based on Luke 15:18-32. Often, we focus on the prodigal son, but what about the heart of the father? This sermon unpacks the overwhelming love, grace, and compassion of our Heavenly Father—a love that welcomes us home no matter how far we've strayed. Whether you've felt distant, lost, or unworthy, this message reminds us that the Father is always running toward us with open arms.

We hear and see on social media constant reminders of the crimes taking place, illnesses on the rise, the political fights, and the economic downfall. It is the constant bombardment of negativity we hear subconsciously or consciously every day. And what we hear ripples into what we believe… what we say… and how we behave. Our ability to speak the healing language of affirmation in a negative world is one of our God given superpowers. Affirmation reinforces our God given identity, worth, and potential. Extra Verses: Proverbs 10:22 Genesis 12:1 Acts 9:17-18 Deuteronomy 28 Romans 8:31

God did not create us to where masks and hide our identity. Performers wear masks. Masks vary in style and features, but every mask is designed to do two things: Hide weaknesses… or deficiencies. Project strengths. We are accepted in the beloved and must learn to live a life beyond performance. You are fully known and fully loved by Him. You are "enough!

To break the cycle of “Not Enough,” Jesus invites us to step into a brand-new way of life…. the cycle of grace. It is the reverse of the cycle of "never enough." It starts with achievement to get acceptance. The cycle of grace starts with acceptance and ends up with achievement! Join us as we begin the journey of I am enough! Extra Verses: Acts 26:18 Gal. 3:2 Rom. 5:17 John 1:12

According to a recent survey, more than three-in-five Americans say they're lonely, with more and more people reporting feeling like they are left out, poorly understood, and lacking companionship. Loneliness is on the rise. A report by the health insurer, Cigna, found a thirteen percent rise since 2018. We must receive our healing, believe the promise that He will never leave us alone, and share your healing with someone else! Extra Verses: Matthew 28:20 John 14:16 2 Timothy 4:17 Psalm 23:4

One of the most common causes of bitterness is past hurts and offenses left unforgiven that cause anger, resentment and ideas/thoughts of vengeance, usually stemming from rejection. We must uproot this and deal with it or before too long it will cause, division, discouragement and even physical difficulties.

The most common symptom of anxiety is GUILT Anxiety is not sin; it is a lack of believing. It is most often portrayed in scripture as an inconsistency in trusting God. Anxiety is a subtle insinuation that God is either unable or unconcerned to see to our well being. This isn't the case. HE IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR ANXIETY!

In the first installment of our new series, In My Feelings, we dive deep into the emotions that shape our lives, focusing on the grip that fear can have over us. This powerful message challenges us to recognize how fear—not circumstances, the media, or even our own doubts—can paralyze our spiritual growth and rob us of the rest and joy God intends for us. Drawing from a wealth of scripture—from 2 Timothy 1:7's declaration of a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind, to the vivid examples in Exodus, Numbers, and Joshua—the sermon reveals how the Israelites' fear kept them from fully embracing God's promises and how we, too, can be held back by the false narratives we tell ourselves. Instead, we are called to shift our focus: to "zoom in on favor" and "zoom out on fear," standing strong in the truth that faith can overcome our deepest anxieties. Join us as we learn to control our emotions rather than let them control us, stepping boldly into the future God has prepared. Let today's message inspire you to fight fear with faith, trust in God's promises, and embrace the courage to move forward into the abundant life awaiting you. Extra Verses!: Isaiah 41:10 AMP

Where we eat from makes a difference. The benefits from eating from the four branches of the Tree of Life. In today's message we look at the principles that set us free from the past and enable us to live a fruitful and flourishing life in the kingdom of God on the earth. Extra Verses: Galatians 2:20

First Things First is the first message of 2025 and the first message in our series. Pastor Jamie will be giving us Kingdom Principles to Live By. Strategies Jesus implemented and modeled for us while on earth that we can follow. First Thing we must realize to walk in SUCCESS is that the CROSS was successful. Everything flows out of that. Pastor will also encourage us to stop making excuses and make going to the Father our First Response not a last Resort.

In Week 3 of our Christmas series A Wonder Filled Life, we dive into the heart of the season with a message titled "The Wonder of the Incarnation." Reflecting on 1 Timothy 3:16, John 1:14-16, and Colossians 2:9-10, we explore the profound mystery and beauty of God becoming flesh through Jesus Christ. This life-changing truth reveals God's love, grace, and fullness dwelling among us, offering hope and salvation to all. Join us as we celebrate the wonder of the Incarnation and its transformative power in our lives today.

In today's message, we explored the comforting truth that Jesus is our Wonderful Counselor, the one who guides us through life's uncertainties with wisdom and grace. Drawing from Isaiah 9:6, we see the prophetic promise of a Savior who carries divine wisdom. In John 8:21-29 and John 14:16-18, Jesus reminds us of His constant presence through the Holy Spirit, offering guidance and peace even when we feel lost. Psalm 42:11 (TPT) encourages us to put our hope in God, even in moments of despair, because our Wonderful Counselor is always near. This sermon invites us to embrace the gift of His wisdom and let Him fill our lives with wonder and purpose.

Paul identifies for us the Good Deposit as a treasure in earthen vessels. It was deposited in us before time began. With help from Holy Spirit we guard it and it is manifested through us in the earth.

We have been called to have dominion over the earth. Watch this amazing sermon & learn how to reign in life now! With Christ! Galatians 3:29

NOW is the TIME; Song of Solomon 2:10 TPT The King is calling out to his bride, "Now is the time, the season has changed"! We are the bride of our King, Jesus. He calls us out of the season of bondage and barrenness. The season of hiding is over. The season for singing has arrived. The dove is cooing and we are enjoying the abundance of our inheritance. Hope deferred makes the heart sick. We aren't sick at heart we are enjoying the NOW SEASON!

Part 2 of NOW November Sermon Series- The reality of the kingdom is that we are presently seated with Christ in the heavenly realms. From Now On our perspective must change. Our UNION WITH Christ defines us; this can never again be a distant goal to achieve through religious devotion or striving, but rather a present reality that we believe and receive FROM NOW ON! Extra Verses: Hebrews 10:11-12 Psalm 29:10 Psalm 9:7 2 Corinthians 5:16-17

Today's message focuses on Ephesians 5:8 'For you were once darkness, BUT NOW you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light. Jesus came into the world as Light to reveal to us that we are Light as well. So, we ought to wake up and walk as children of the Light. Because of our union with Christ we illuminate the world with His light everywhere we go. Our minds were full of darkness because we didn't realize our true identity. But Now our minds have been enlightened.

Week two of our prayer series. Pastor continues to encourage us that the basis of prayer is the Finished work. From that perspective we pray from victory not for it. When the disciples ask Jesus to teach them to pray He directed them to go to the Father and make declarations of the realities of the kingdom of heaven. You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. James teaches us that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Extra Verses: 1 Thessalonians 5:17 Jude 1:29

Today Pastor Jamie begins a new series on PRAYER. He will help us discover our position in proximity to the Father through Jesus. From this mindset there is no protocol to gain access to His presence. We participate, in our union with Father/Son/Spirit, through the mind of Christ and make bold declarations. Pastor Jamie encourages us not to deconstruct your legalistic praying but rather be transformed in your prayers. No more begging and pleading but rather declaring and decreeing the promises of God.

Pastor Jamie is back in the pulpit and continues our series on Twisted Scriptures. He has already brought information to us about misused, misinterpreted, and misunderstood passages. In this message he will bring to light about misconceptions of certain passages and concepts that may have caused misconception in our minds. Misconception is a view or opinion that is incorrect because based on faulty thinking or understanding.

In this thought-provoking episode, we explore the concept of the “last days” from a fresh, scripture-based perspective. Using a wide range of biblical passages—Hebrews 1:1-2, Genesis 49:1, Joel 2:28, Matthew 24, and many others—our discussion challenges common interpretations of end times. We begin by addressing how many of us have formed our beliefs from commentaries and popular views rather than studying the Scriptures ourselves. The message emphasizes that judgment in the Bible was directed toward Israel, not nations or individuals today, and that there is no need for fear regarding end times or for a "rapture." Join us as we dive into the Scriptures and re-examine what the Bible really says about the “last days.”

In this sermon, we explore how God's "No" is not a denial but an act of divine love, protecting and guiding us toward the life He has destined for us. Drawing from Titus 2:1-15, we reflect on the call for believers to live lives of integrity, self-control, and godliness, rejecting worldly desires and embracing the grace that teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness. Similarly, 1 Corinthians 13 reminds us that true love—the love God has for us and the love we are called to extend to others—is patient, kind, and sacrificial. God's loving "No" is an invitation to greater purpose, shielding us from distractions and temptations that lead us away from His perfect plan. By embracing God's boundaries, we empower our best life, one grounded in spiritual maturity, love, and obedience.

Pastor Jamie wraps up the series today with a message about things we quote that Jesus/or the Bible didn't say. They have been taken and taught out of context. Pastor' intend is to bring awareness to these types of things so we can avoid them in the future. Other Scriptures To Study: Matthew 10:34 John 12:31

In today's message our Pastor conveys the danger of misinterpreted passages. No wonder we have lived such defeated lives full of fear. Misinterpretation of passages has often led people to question and even doubt the finished work of the cross and their position in Christ. Some of these passages have left believers full of anxiety and worry about the future and unable to enjoy the present realities of the kingdom. Many have found it too difficult to achieve and choose to give up and even quit on Christianity all together.More References To Read:John 17:15Luke 17:25Proverbs 10:30Matthew 24Revelation 21:1-2

Today Pastor Jamie begins a new series called TWISTED SCRIPTURE. In a colorful and conversational look at some controversial scripture passages concerning things like money, the future and even the devil, he will help shatter destructive lies, bring undiluted truth and offer encouragement and freedom. In part one the message conveys the danger of misusing scripture. Misuse can lead to misunderstanding and ultimately destruction. He encourages us to consistently study the Bible in context.

In today's message Pastor puts in the effort to redefine, restore and reimplement these beautiful revelations of who Jesus is, so that humanity might experience the tangible Goodness of God as quickly as possible! Scriptures to seek out: Colossians 1:26-27 1 Corinthians 15:22 Ephesians 2:4-5

Our series is nearing its conclusion, before it does, Pastor Jamie encourages us with the fact that Jesus is a Strong Anchor for our souls. Only Jesus can keep us grounded in the storms of life. As His disciples we can be confident in the anchor of His promise, provisions, protection, and His presence! Hebrews tells us that we can have confidence that it cannot slip and it cannot break down under whatever pressure bears upon it! That's Jesus.

In week 11 of our series Just Jesus, Pastor Jamie Wright shares with us that Jesus is Greater in Everyway! Greater than angels and the prophets. Greater than Moses and Jonah. He offered a better blood and a better covenant with better promises. And he encourages us to realize Greater is He who is in us than he that is in the world.

Jonathan Dupee from Tulsa Oklahoma speaks on how Jesus wants to be our friend. HE told his disciples no longer do I call you servants, but friend.

Today Pastor Jamie returns to the pulpit to continue our summer series as he speaks on the subject of Jesus, Our redeemer. As Boaz was a kinsman redeemer in the Old Testament showing us a picture of Christ. We will see in the New Testament how Jesus has redeemed all things. Everything about the cross and the Finished Work is redemptive, and that should be every believers filter.

Pastor Seth Fleming from Charleston Church of God Prophecy. Continues in our series sharing a message from his heart. Pastor Seth will help us keep our gaze on the Lord as our Good Shepherd.

In week 7 of our summer series, Just Jesus, Pastor Jamie brings a life-giving message about the Life Giver. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the LIFE". He also declared, "I am the Resurrection and LIFE." His words give LIFE, and as we fix our gaze on Him and listen to His voice it is evident, He gives LIFE!

As we continue our summer series, Pastor Jamie will teach on Jesus our deliverer. From the Old Testament we see a type of Christ as Israel is delivered from their state of bondage. In the New Testament we see God come to rescue His children once and for all from the bondage of sin. Jesus has delivered us from the penalty of sin and set us free to righteousness. Let's enjoy and celebrate that freedom.

What is your perspective of others? Today, Pastor Jamie Wright will illustrate to us from gospel of Mark, how Jesus can and wants to change our perspective of others. How we see and treat others is our kingdom assignment. Our grip might slip, but He has a hold of us.

Whatever you need, Jesus is the provider, & multiplier! When we see a problem - Jesus sees POTENTIAL When we see a desert place - He sees a place of OPPORTUNITY When we operate in the natural - He is working SUPERNATURALLY When the grace of God is ministered it will EQUIP & EMPOWER

This message Pastor Jamie discusses the importance of Jesus assignment to reveal the Father to all humanity!

In Week two of our Summer series, JUST JESUS, Pastor Jamie draws our attention to Jesus as the Healer. During our time together this summer we are focusing our gaze on Jesus and Him alone. Throughout the series Pastor Jamie will guide us to different aspects of who JESUS was and still is! Jesus is still our HEALER! What does that mean exactly. We trust you will join us as we learn together.

Today we kick off our Sumner Sermon Series: Just Jesus with a message titled Behold the Lamb. When we look at Jesus we see the Father. When we behold, gaze upon him we see the lamb God provided (Himself) to lift off the sin of the cosmos. The mirror translation says, He lifter the anchor off so we could sail in freedom.

We live in a culture that says one thing & does something else. A culture that says they believe one way, & acts differently. Justin challenges believers & non-believers to do their own research & study!
