Who Has Your Ear

The Adventure Of Surrender

In Day 4 of this Good Morning LIVE series through the Gospel of Mark, Pastor James Epperly teaches on Jesus calling His first disciples and the powerful truth that surrender is where the adventure begins. When Jesus called Simon, Andrew, James, and John, He stepped into their ordinary workday and invited them into an extraordinary purpose. This teaching reminds us that God often calls ordinary people in ordinary moments — and if we will follow Him, He will form us, shape us, and make us become everything He has called us to be. If you’ve been waiting for all the details before you obey, this message will encourage you to take the next step. You don’t need the whole map when you trust the One giving the direction.

Small Beginnings, Big Assignment

In this Good Morning LIVE teaching, Pastor James Epperly continues through the opening of Mark’s Gospel with a powerful reminder: **do not despise small beginnings when God is the One breathing on them.** Jesus’ public ministry began in places many people would have overlooked — the Jordan River, the wilderness, and Galilee. Yet those small beginnings carried the greatest assignment in history. In this message, you’ll be encouraged to trust God in hidden seasons, stand firm in your identity in Christ, overcome temptation with the Word, and believe that your next step of obedience matters. The Gospel may begin like seed, but when God is in it, it carries a future bigger than what you can see right now.

Prepare The Way

In Day 2 of this Good Morning LIVE series through the opening of Mark’s Gospel, Pastor James Epperly teaches on the ministry of John the Baptist and the call to prepare the way of the Lord. John was not trying to be impressive — he was trying to be obedient. He knew who he was, he knew who he was not, and his whole life pointed people to Jesus. This teaching will help you clear spiritual clutter, respond to the Word, stay tender to the Holy Spirit, and let your life become a signpost that says, “This way to Jesus.” If you’ve been feeling distracted, stuck, cluttered, or spiritually dull, this message is a reminder that God prepares hearts before He moves through them. Repentance is not the end of joy — it is the doorway back into it.

The Real Jesus

In this Good Morning LIVE teaching, Pastor James Epperly brings us back to the simplicity and power of following Jesus. Based on Mark 1:1, this message reminds us that Jesus is not just a teacher, example, or religious figure — He is the Christ, the Son of God, the Savior, the Anointed One, and the One revealed throughout Scripture. Following Jesus was never meant to be complicated. The Gospel is good news, and every believer is called to respond to Jesus with faith, obedience, and the next step He is asking us to take. If your view of Jesus has been shaped by religion, culture, fear, or confusion, this teaching will help you see Him again through the Word.

Who Has Your Ear

What if the miracle is not delayed because Jesus is unwilling—but because the room is filled with the wrong voices? In this powerful message from Mark 5, Pastor James Epperly teaches from the story of Jairus’ daughter and reveals how Jesus cleared the room before He spoke resurrection life. Wrong voices can carry fear, doubt, unbelief, and discouragement, but the Word of God has the final authority. This sermon will encourage you to guard your atmosphere, recognize voices that weaken your faith, and make room for Jesus to speak life over what feels dead. If you have been battling fear, confusion, negative reports, or voices that keep pulling you away from faith, this message will help you stand on the Word and believe again. When the room gets clear, the Word gets heard. And when the Word gets heard, dead things get up.
