You think you're healing. But you're not. You're rehearsing the pain. You're replaying the memory. You're decorating the prison cell like it's home. In this message, Pastor TJ Tyus delivers one of the most convicting sermons you'll hear this year, a word about the memories that are holding you back from the destiny God already wrote for you. Using the story of Abraham, the power of an egg, and a raw testimony about his daughter Aries, Pastor TJ breaks down why most people never reach what God has for them — not because they're stuck, but because they keep going back. You're not trying to heal. You're trying to hold on. And what you're holding onto is exactly what's keeping you from breaking through. In this message you'll discover: → Why your pain isn't the problem — your rehearsal of it is → The difference between leaving and going (and why most people only do one) → How memories break you from the outside, but destiny breaks you from the inside → Why God speaks to your destiny while you're still speaking to your history → The adoption principle: your past doesn't matter when God says you're His → A simple 3-step strategy to break the memory loop and start walking in purpose → Why some people had to leave your life — not because they're bad, but because you're in a different season

Pastor TJ teaches that the resurrection is the foundation of the Christian faith, proving Jesus is who He says He is and guaranteeing eternal life for believers. Because the Holy Spirit now dwells in Christians, they are no longer enslaved to sin but are called to actively fight and put it to death. Sin is not something to manage—it is destructive and must be killed. This battle is fought through the Spirit working through God's Word, leading believers to truth and producing the fruit of the Spirit. Ultimately, the message emphasizes that believers fight sin not to earn salvation, but because of their identity as God's children, calling them to live in obedience and holiness.

Pastor TJ explains that Romans 8:1 is the culmination of everything Paul has argued in the first seven chapters of Romans: because of Christ's finished work, believers are completely freed from condemnation. Even though Christians still experience an ongoing battle with sin, their position before God is secure. TJ emphasizes that salvation is not based on our performance but on our union with Christ, who has already paid the full penalty for sin. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, believers are justified, kept, and assured of eternal security. The message encourages Christians to reject the condemning lies of the enemy, rest in the truth of the gospel, and live confidently in the identity and freedom found in Christ.

Matthew 18:23-35 - Forgiveness - Pastor TJ EveMESSAGE NOTES:http://www.calvaryword.com/Topical/a1443.pdf

2/8/2026 - Guest Speaker: Pastor TJ Wilder by Pastor Dennis Fountain

Pastor TJ explains that believers are no longer under the authority or condemnation of the law because they have died to it through the body of Christ. Using the illustration of marriage, Paul shows that death changes relationship and authority—just as death frees a person from marriage law, believers' death with Christ frees them from the law's rule. Blaine emphasizes that the law was never meant to save; it exposes sin and ultimately produces death. Through Christ, Christians are released from the law so they can belong to Him, bear fruit for God, and serve in the new way of the Spirit rather than the old way of external rule-keeping. The message highlights that true transformation comes not from more rules, but from new life in Christ and ongoing sanctification by the Spirit.

This sermon from Pastor TJ sets the tone for the year with a clear call to move forward in faith. Drawing from Philippians 3, TJ emphasizes that knowing Christ is of surpassing worth and that following Jesus requires intentional effort—pressing on rather than living in the past. He challenges the church to avoid a wasted life by building on a firm foundation: trusting, knowing, and storing God's Word. Using personal stories and Scripture, he highlights the authority and reliability of the Bible and calls the church to deeper engagement with Scripture, obedience to Christ, and shared dependence on God as they move forward together.

Pastor TJ preached from Romans 5:6–11, showing how God's love is proven in Christ dying for us while we were weak, sinful, and even His enemies. We didn't clean ourselves up or reach for God — He reached for us. TJ emphasized that Christ's sacrifice secures both our justification and our ongoing salvation, and that reconciliation means we now have peace with God and a new calling as His ambassadors. The core message: if you ever wonder whether God loves you, look at the hands of Christ — His sacrifice is the undeniable proof.

In this sermon, Pastor TJ teaches from Romans 4:1–8 on the doctrine of justification by faith alone, using Abraham's life as the prime example that righteousness is received through belief, not earned through works. He traces Abraham's story from God's call in Genesis 12 to the testing of his faith with Isaac, showing that Abraham's trust—not his deeds—was credited to him as righteousness. Pastor TJ explains that salvation is a free gift from God through Jesus Christ, whose perfect righteousness is imputed to believers. He contrasts this grace with the futility of trying to earn God's approval and reminds the church that justification brings freedom, humility, and joy. Ultimately, Pastor TJ calls listeners to rest in the finished work of Christ, allowing their faith to grow as they more clearly see and trust who God is.

Your life isn't stuck because of what you've been through—it's stuck because of the conversations you've been having. Pastor TJ breaks down why the enemy doesn't create your downfall—he just talks you into it. Eve wasn't destroyed by the tree, she was destroyed by the conversation. This message shows you how to move from living in shame to walking in freedom by turning God's Word from a “suggestion” into your standard. Learn how to guard your self-talk, shift from shame to faith, and finally live the life God created you for. If today's word hit home, drop one sentence you're replacing shame with (ex: “I am who God says I am”). “If this freed you, hit Subscribe and share with one person living in shame.” If this word hit you, don't keep it to yourself — share it with someone who needs freedom today.

Are you praying, hustling, and giving your best effort — but still not seeing your breakthrough? The truth is, it's not about how hard you work or how much you know. It's about one thing: alignment. In this powerful message, Pastor TJ Tyus shares a personal story from his college football days that reveals a deeper spiritual truth: You can know the playbook.  You can have the right attitude. You can even make adjustments…  But if you're out of alignment with God, the breakthrough will be blocked. This sermon breaks down what true alignment looks like—agreement with His Word, walking in His ways, and positioning yourself under His authority. Pastor TJ also exposes the enemy's oldest tactic: planting doubt in your mind to misalign you from God's order.

You keep praying for a better life — more money, a better marriage, peace of mind — but nothing changes. Why? Because prayer won't fix stupid habits. You can pray all day, but if you're still eating like trash, still blaming everybody else, still out of order… don't expect different results. In this episode, CJ, ET, and Pastor TJ break down why your sequence matters more than your intentions — and why God's blessings aren't missing, you're just out of alignment.

Why do you keep starting things you don't finish? In this episode, Pastor TJ Tyus dives deep into The Law of Sustainment — a principle that reveals why we struggle to remain consistent. It's not just about discipline. It's about identity. If your self-image doesn't align with your goals, your efforts will always collapse. Pastor TJ shows how aligning your inner beliefs with your divine calling is the key to sustaining lasting change. He also shares vulnerable moments from his own life — from dealing with road rage to raising his kids — showing how becoming must happen in the dark before you can shine in the light. Takeaways: You can't build what you haven't become Your fruit is suffocating under unhealed roots Becoming like Christ starts with unlearning the lies Until you align with God's image of you, you'll fall short of your calling
