Prepare The Way

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.

A Mouth That Agrees With Heaven

Your words are not just describing your life. Many times, your words are directing your life. In Day 7 of Built Different, Pastor James Epperly teaches on the power of bringing your mouth into agreement with Heaven. Faith has a language. Fear has a language. Shame has a language. Victory has a language. If you are going to live built different, you cannot keep speaking from the old blueprint. This teaching will help you recognize what your words have been agreeing with and begin speaking in alignment with the Word of God. You do not have to keep repeating what God never said. You are not hopeless. You are not abandoned. You are not condemned. You are not defined by shame, fear, pressure, or your past. The Word of God has the final word. Your mouth belongs to God. Your words can agree with Heaven. You were built different.

A Mind Renewed By The Word

You can be saved and still think like the old you. In Day 6 of Built Different, Pastor James Epperly teaches from Romans 12:2 on what it means to be transformed by the renewing of your mind. If you are going to live built different, you cannot keep thinking from the old blueprint. Many believers have been made new in Christ, but their thought patterns are still shaped by fear, shame, condemnation, comparison, insecurity, offense, or the culture around them. But the Word of God gives us truth strong enough to cast down every lie and renew the way we think. This teaching will help you recognize thoughts that do not agree with God, stop letting every thought build a house in your mind, and begin meditating on what is true, pure, lovely, noble, and of good report. You do not have to be conformed to this world. You can be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Your mind belongs to Christ.
