In this episode, we explore one of the most frequently asked and eternally significant questions: What will heaven be like? Pastor Jay tackles the misconceptions and myths that often surround our view of heaven, no, we won't be floating on clouds or turning into angels! Instead, Scripture paints a rich, hope filled picture of heaven as a real, prepared place where God dwells with His people. We discuss questions like: Will we recognize our loved ones? Will we remember our earthly lives? Will we have responsibilities in heaven? And most importantly—how can we be sure we'll get there?

Have you ever felt overwhelmed trying to do it all, have it all, and hold it all together? You're not alone. In this week's message, Pastor Jay Bauman shares from Psalm 131—a powerful reminder that we don't have to carry the weight of the world. Real peace comes not from striving, but from trusting a God who already holds it all in His hands. Discover the freedom of letting go of pride, discontent, and anxiety as you learn to rest in God's presence like a calm, weaned child with its mother. (08/03/2025)

What does it mean to be saved? By walking through eight key questions, Pastor Jay unpacks what we're saved from, why we need saving, who can be saved, and how we respond to the grace of God. Drawing from powerful Scripture and real-life examples, Pastor Jay explains that salvation isn't just about going to heaven, it's about being rescued from sin, made new by the Holy Spirit, and restored to God's purpose for our lives. Whether you're new to faith or need a fresh reminder of God's saving power, this message will help you understand and clearly communicate the life changing truth of the gospel.

In this week's powerful sermon, Pastor Jay takes us to Judges chapter four, unveiling the dynamic and transformative stories of Deborah and Barak – two imperfect figures chosen by God at a pivotal moment. Pastor Jay draws parallels between their lives and ours, illustrating how our own hesitations can mirror Barak's conditional obedience. Just as Barak faltered when asked to lead, we too often hold back due to fear or uncertainty. However, God calls us to step boldly into our destinies, emphasizing that obedience without conditions is paramount for experiencing His promises. The message resonates as Pastor Jay encourages everyone, particularly women, to embrace their God-given gifts and leadership roles within their families and communities. Joining this conversation is a vital step in your spiritual journey, where you'll discover the importance of stepping out in faith, even when the path seems daunting. We invite you to reflect and engage with your own faith journey, as Pastor Jay challenges you to identify areas of conditional obedience in your life. Don't miss this opportunity – tune in and let this message ignite a new commitment to follow God's call wholeheartedly!

“Wrestling and Blessing”Genesis 32:22-3222 That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female servants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. 23 After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions. 24 So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. 25 When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob's hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. 26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.”But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”27 The man asked him, “What is your name?”“Jacob,” he answered.28 Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”29 Jacob said, “Please tell me your name.”But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed him there.30 So Jacob called the place Peniel, saying, “It is because I saw God face to face, and yet my life was spared.”31 The sun rose above him as he passed Peniel, and he was limping because of his hip. 32 Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon attached to the socket of the hip, because the socket of Jacob's hip was touched near the tendon.CONNECT WITH USIf you have any questions or would like to get to know us further, head over to https://www.triumphlbc.org/connect and fill out our online connection card.ABOUT TRIUMPHTriumph wants to see the life and message of Jesus transform your heart, home, and city.

In this impactful sermon from Pastor Jay Genin, we continue our journey through the book of James and dive into the powerful truth found in James 4. Pastor Jay challenges us to examine the posture of our hearts and confront the temptation to judge others. With clarity and conviction, he reminds us that true spiritual maturity is marked by humility, submission to God, and a deep dependence on His grace. As followers of Jesus, we are called to reflect His love—not to condemn others, but to extend mercy, resist the pull of pride, and live fully surrendered lives. This message speaks directly to anyone searching for a church that prioritizes authentic faith, biblical teaching, and the presence of God over performance or production. This sermon answers these 3 questions: 1. Why is judging others so dangerous for our spiritual health? 2. What does true humility before God actually look like? 3. How can we live in full dependence on God while resisting the world's influence? From Chapel Valley Church in Madison, WI. Join us as our Senior Pastor, Jeremiah Genin, shares the word of God.

Have you ever felt like you were stumbling through life, making the same mistakes repeatedly? In our new series, "Imperfect Heroes," Pastor Jay dives into the Book of Judges, illuminating how the ancient Israelites faced similar patterns of disobedience, consequences, and deliverance that still resonate today. As he explores how a generation rose up that “did not know the Lord,” he challenges us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys. Pastor Jay connects the message to our contemporary struggles, emphasizing the critical importance of modeling faith for the next generation. If we don't actively live out our beliefs, will our children see God's faithfulness, or only the distractions of a culture not centered on Him? With a poignant reminder that God is a just judge and a faithful deliverer, he invites everyone to recognize their need for His grace. This sermon speaks directly to our hearts, urging us to assess whether we allow Jesus to reign as King of our lives.

Most believers today are bothered by the pests of the enemy because the water of God comes to them and gets stuck, unable to flow through like it's supposed to. Listen as Pastor Jay walks through the 10 plagues brought upon Egypt, how each plague challenged a specific Egyptian God, how it compares to the modern American idols, and what God may be confronting again today.

Are you feeling the weight of waiting for something that seems just out of reach? In this powerful sermon, Pastor Jay delves into the closing verses of Ephesians 3 and offers profound insights on finding hope even in the midst of uncertainty. He challenges us to shift our focus from our immediate circumstances to a deeper reliance on God, drawing from his own experiences of waiting and wavering in faith during difficult times. The message is clear: while waiting can often feel isolating and hard, it is also a transformative process where God is actively producing resilience, helping us abide in Him, and growing our faith in the process. Pastor Jay encourages the congregation to embrace the church community as a source of strength, emphasizing that we are not meant to journey alone. This sermon perfectly connects with our ongoing church initiatives aimed at fostering genuine relationships and support among members.

Don't miss out on this invitation to deepen your faith—watch or listen to this uplifting sermon today!

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.

Are you feeling heartsick as you wait for God to come through in your life? As Pastor Jay launches the two-part sermon series "Hope in the Waiting," he invites us to rethink our expectations while we anticipate God's intervention. Using the powerful words of Isaiah 40:31, he reminds us that while we detest waiting, it's during these times of anticipation that our faith can be renewed. Through a deep dive into Ephesians 3:14-19, Pastor Jay articulates a poignant truth: true hope isn't just a feeling—it's rooted in knowing who we seek. Hope, defined as "expectation," calls us to place our faith in God, who is trustworthy and consistent in His love for us, even when our circumstances seem bleak. As Pastor Jay shares a personal testimony about grappling with faith amidst uncertainty, he emphasizes that our focus should be not on what we desire but on being strengthened, rooted, and grounded in love. This message speaks volumes to anyone facing delays or disappointment, encouraging them to lift their eyes from worldly measures and grow in spiritual depth. Join us in exploring how we can find true hope in our waiting—watch or listen to this inspired message now!

This is the weekly message from Thrive Church Online with Pastor Jay.

“The Trouble With Camels”Mark 10:17-2717 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.'”20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.”21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”22 At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”26 The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, “Who then can be saved?”27 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.”CONNECT WITH USIf you have any questions or would like to get to know us further, head over to https://www.triumphlbc.org/connect and fill out our online connection card.ABOUT TRIUMPHTriumph wants to see the life and message of Jesus transform your heart, home, and city.

Pastor Jay focuses on the theme of wholeness in Jesus and addresses the question of whether God feels distant. He explains that while, apart from Christ, we are indeed separated from God, Jesus' sacrifice has removed this distance and reconciled us to the Father. Pastor Jay outlines two main problems that contribute to the perception of God's distance: failing to fully expose ourselves to Him and giving our devotion to other things instead of God. He encourages us to examine our lives, confess our struggles, and draw closer to God through prayer and community, emphasizing the importance of vulnerability and genuine relationship with Christ.

In this powerful message from John 5, Pastor Jay Austin challenges us to reflect on how we perceive Jesus by asking: “Have you ever been wrong about someone's identity?” Focusing on the story of the man healed at the Pool of Bethesda, Pastor Jay unpacks the compassion, authority, and divine identity of Jesus.Through the lens of this miraculous healing, we are reminded that Jesus sees and knows our struggles—our pain, addictions, disappointments, and sin—not with condemnation, but with deep compassion. As Jesus calls the man to rise and walk, Pastor Jay emphasizes that true healing comes not from tradition or performance, but from trusting in Jesus' mercy and power.The message concludes by answering the question, “Who is this man?”—revealing Jesus as the Healer, the Lord over the law, the Giver of life, and the Savior who offers eternal hope. We are invited to respond in faith: to rise from our paralysis, walk in obedience, and follow the way of Jesus with renewed purpose and holiness.

In this powerful message, Pastor John Leathers walks us through John 4 and the life-changing encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. What begins as a simple request for water becomes a deep revelation of truth, grace, and identity.Jesus breaks barriers of culture, gender, and shame to offer the woman something far greater than physical water—living water that satisfies the soul and leads to eternal life. As He reveals her past and offers her a future, we see the heart of Christ as the Savior who sees us fully and loves us completely.Drawing from Jeremiah 2:13, Pastor Jay reminds us that many of us are still drinking from broken cisterns—empty pursuits that leave us dry. But Jesus offers something better: Himself.This message will stir your heart to worship in spirit and truth, and to share the hope of Jesus with boldness, just like the woman who ran to her town declaring, “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did.”Discover what it means to be known, loved, and transformed by the Savior of the world.

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 from the parable of the talents, we are reminded that each of us will one day stand before Christ's judgment seat to account for how we stewarded the life and mission He entrusted to us. Are we living for our own plans, or are we fully invested in God's mission? Pastor Jay challenges us to examine our hearts, get ourselves out of the way, and commit fully to the eternal work of making disciples — the true evidence of a church living with vision.

Pastor Jay resumed our series on The Minor Prophets today with an exploration of the book of Joel. Covering all three chapters, we see how God used Joel to bring judgment to Israel but that this judgment was not without an option of escape and capacity for hope.

Then suddenly, she locked eyes with him! "Hey, aren't you part of those freaks?" she accused. Pete felt like he swallowed a rock. What could he say?
