The Power of Connection: Recharging Your Spiritual Life This message, titled "Soul Reset," is a timely and vital call to action for anyone who feels their faith is running on fumes. Pastor Ryan Kramer opens with a relatable analogy: the frustrating experience of a phone that's fully equipped but not charged. He connects this to the Christian life, highlighting a common struggle: we can have all the right "apps"—Bible study, worship, and community—but if we're not plugged into our power source, God, our spiritual lives will feel dry and underpowered. Drawing from Ephesians 6, Pastor Kramer explains that the Apostle Paul's instruction to be "strong in the Lord and in his mighty power" has two essential parts. The first is putting on the armor of God, which equips us for spiritual battle. The second, and often overlooked, is connecting to our power source—God's mighty power. He likens this to a soldier in battle: equipped with all the gear, but vulnerable and exposed without communication from their command. This teaching emphasizes that our spiritual disciplines, while good and necessary, are not enough on their own. They must be empowered by a deep, relational connection with God. Pastor Kramer provides a practical, 10-minute prayer framework to help listeners reset their souls and turn on the "faucet" of living water: -- Return in Worship: Begin with a time of worship, using a vertical song to focus on who God is, not just what you need from him. -- Express Gratitude: Shift your focus from what's missing to what matters by thanking God for His blessings. -- Ask for a Heart Check: Humbly ask God to reveal any unpleasing attitudes or sins, and ask for His forgiveness. -- Extend an Invitation: Invite the Holy Spirit to guide your steps, words, thoughts, and actions throughout the day. -- Take a Moment to Just Be: End with a moment of silent stillness, allowing yourself to simply be in God's presence and listen for His voice. Pastor Kramer concludes by sharing a personal conviction he experienced during a sabbatical: he was so busy doing things for God that he had neglected being with God. He explains that while the living water is available, it is not automatic—we have to turn on the faucet. This message is a powerful reminder that true spiritual vitality comes not from religious activity, but from an intimate, intentional, and consistent connection with the living water of Jesus Christ.

Send us a textIn this episode, Pastor Ryan teaches us about the principals of patience. Isaiah 40:3131 But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.Galatians 5:2222 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,James 1:3-43 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.Romans 5:3-53 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces [a]perseverance; 4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.2 Peter 3:8-98 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.Isaiah 40:1-21 “Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” Says your God.2  “Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, That her warfare is ended, That her iniquity is pardoned; For she has received from the Lord's hand Double for all her sins.”Isaiah 40:10-1110 Behold, the Lord God shall come [a]with a strong hand, And His arm shall rule for Him; Behold, His reward is with Him, And His [b]work before Him.11He will feed His flock like a shepherd; He will gather the lambs with His arm, And carry them in His bosom, And gently lead those who are with young.Isaiah 40:29-3129He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength.30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall,31 But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.

Hope is critical in the process of healing and in this episode Pastor Ryan and Corryn talk about this essential part hope plays in freedom and healing.

"The Cost of Being a Disciple" Pastor Ryan Myers 8.3.25

This sermon delivered by Pastor Ryan Neer at Tampa Life emphasizes faith and perseverance amid life's unexpected trials. He starts by recounting the Biblical story of Joseph's coat of many colors, focusing on how unplanned events can introduce unforeseen 'colors' or challenges into our lives. Using personal anecdotes, including the powerful testimony of his own mother, Pastor Neer underlines how these challenges can cause us to create enemies and declare death over God's promises. He encourages the congregation to embrace their destiny, release their grief, and allow the community to support their healing, ultimately reinforcing that God's plan is larger than any adversity faced.00:00 Opening Invocation and Worship00:51 Introduction and Personal Reflections02:30 Scripture Reading: Genesis 37 and 4506:17 Sermon Introduction: A Coat, A Context, and A Color08:19 The Story of Jacob and Joseph16:34 Life's Unexpected Colors19:29 Personal Anecdotes and Lessons27:35 Declaring Death Over Dormant Dreams28:07 The Story of Lazarus: A Lesson in Faith29:22 Don't Bury Your Destiny30:48 The Struggle of Jacob and Israel33:50 Living Beneath Your Potential39:13 The Power of Community and Healing41:57 Lorna's Story: From Pain to Redemption51:15 A Call to Reconnect and Heal

We all have a choice to make: Will we live a life that follows God, or will we go our own way? Psalm 1 lays it out clearly. There's the path of the godly — rooted, steady, fruitful. And then there's the path of the ungodly — unstable and leading to destruction. This isn't just about big life decisions, but the everyday choices we make that shape who we are.Pastor Ryan breaks this passage down verse by verse so that we can grow in our walk with God, and stay on the narrow path He has called us to.
