Eric Thomas: Stop Talking Yourself Out of Your Own Life | What God Removes Before He Rebuilds Jun 27, 2026

You keep praying for change. But the thing standing between you and the life God promised you isn't your past, your enemies, or your circumstances. It's the words coming out of your own mouth.

In this message from the 52 Day Challenge, Eric Thomas breaks down what God removes before He rebuilds your life — and why the demolition has to come before the construction. You can't build a new life on yesterday's foundation. Before God adds, He subtracts. Before He builds, He demolishes.

This is Week 1: DEMO. The deliberate removal of everything that's been tearing you down — starting with how you talk about yourself.

You Don't Have to Be Whole to Be Healed | Eric Thomas Jun 21, 2026

You don't have to be whole to be healed.

You've been waiting. Waiting to get your life together before you come to God. Waiting to fix yourself before you ask for help. Waiting to be perfect before you step into the pool. But God doesn't require wholeness to heal you. He requires honesty.

In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers one of the most transparent, grace-filled sermons of the year, using the story of the man at the pool of Bethesda to expose the real reason you're still stuck. It's not because God hasn't shown up. It's not because you're too broken. It's because you won't admit you're impotent.

The pool was filled with impotent folk. Blind folk. Lame folk. Withered folk. Nobody at the pool was whole. And the angel didn't come for the whole. He came for the broken. The ones who were willing to say, I can't do this on my own. I need help. I'm ready to be made whole.

God is stirring the water right now. This is the season. 52 days. Not 52 months. Not 52 years. God is inviting you to jump in. But you can't jump in when you're still blaming your mother, your father, your ex, your past. You can't be healed when you're still rehearsing the pain. God is asking you one question: Will you be made whole?

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why the pool was made for the impotent, not the perfect
→ How to stop blaming others and start taking ownership of your healing
→ Why God doesn't wait for you to be ready, He prepares the pool in advance
→ The difference between those who jump in first and those who make excuses
→ What it means to accept the invitation and rise immediately
→ Why 52 days with God is all it takes to rebuild what's been broken for 38 years
→ How to stop fighting the people God sent to help you
→ The real reason you stay stuck: you're comfortable being impotent

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
John 5:2-9 — The pool of Bethesda and the man healed after 38 years
Romans 12:2 — Be transformed by the renewing of your mind
2 Corinthians 5:17 — If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation
Isaiah 43:18-19 — Forget the former things; I am doing a new thing

[DELETED ON YOUTUBE] Eric Thomas: What If The Thing You Gave Up On Is Only 52 Days From Fixed? Jun 14, 2026

What if the thing you gave up on is only 52 days from fixed.

Not 52 months. Not 52 years. 52 days. That's how long it took Nehemiah to rebuild walls that sat in ruin for 140 years. And God is saying the same thing is possible for you.

In this message, Eric delivers one of the most direct, faith-filled sermons of the year, about the gift of 52 days. Using the story of Nehemiah, raw personal testimony about fitness, family, and faith, and a declaration that will shake you out of survival mode, ET breaks down what it really takes to rebuild what's been broken in your life. Not more motivation. Not more programs. Commitment. Consistency. And a willingness to show up for 52 days with God.
You didn't knock your own walls down. You didn't ask for the trauma. You didn't choose the betrayal. But 140 years later, you're still standing in the rubble. And God is asking you one question: when are you going to rebuild?

This isn't about what you destroyed. It's about what God can do. It's about closing the gap between where you are and where God called you to be. Pick one wall. Name it. Pray over it. Take one rep. Tell somebody. The wall won't build itself — and God isn't asking you to build alone. He's asking you to build with Him.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why 52 days is all it takes when you stop making excuses and start building with God
→ The four steps to closing the gap: Name it, pray over it, take one rep, tell somebody
→ Why you must change your language from victim talk to rebuild talk
→ How God can restore the years the locust has eaten in less than two months
→ The 52 Day Declaration: a commitment between you and God
→ The testimony of what God's already doing in 14 days
→ How to surrender the one area you can't seem to fix

He Offered Free Money and Nobody Took It | Why You Stay Stuck in Old Patterns Jun 07, 2026

He offered free money. And nobody took it.
Not because they didn't need it. Not because they didn't want it. But because they were stuck in the same pattern of thinking they've been stuck in for years. Analyzing. Waiting. Watching everyone else move while they stayed frozen.
Pastor Tyus uses one of the most convicting illustrations of the year to expose the real reason you stay stuck in old patterns. It's not your circumstances. It's not your resources. It's that you've been conditioned to accept what's broken. And until you interrupt that pattern, nothing changes.
Using the story of Nehemiah, the rope climb that humbled him, and the $20 bill that sat unclaimed, he breaks down what it really takes to rebuild what's been broken in your life. Not more motivation. Not more programs. Conditioning. Training. And pattern interruption.
The wall in Jerusalem was broken for 141 years. Nehemiah rebuilt it in 52 days, because he stopped accepting what everyone else had normalized. God is calling you to do the same.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why training is the activity, but conditioning is the result
→ The difference between analytical, automatic, and engaged thinking, and which one gets breakthrough
→ Why you keep losing to people who shouldn't even have power over you
→ How neuroplasticity works and why one sermon won't change your life
→ The three beliefs required for real transformation: something must change, I must change, I can change
→ Why Nehemiah spent 30 to 40 years being built before he rebuilt the wall in 52 days
→ The formula: Awareness + Honesty x Correction minus Excuses = Pattern Interruption
→ How to lay one brick today and start rebuilding what's been broken

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
1 Timothy 4:7 — Train yourself to be godly
Romans 12:2 — Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind
Nehemiah 1:3-4 — The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and I sat down and wept
Nehemiah 6:15 — So the wall was finished in 52 days
2 Corinthians 5:17 — If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation

Eric Thomas: What If The Life You Want Is Only 52 Days Away? May 31, 2026

What if the life you want is only 52 days away?
Not 52 months. Not 52 years. 52 days. That's how long it took Nehemiah to rebuild walls that sat in ruin for 140 years. Not because he had more resources. Because he stopped normalizing the ruin and started building.

In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers one of the most direct, no-excuses sermons of the year. Using the story of Nehemiah, the reality of financial freedom, and raw testimony about structure, systems, and standards, ET breaks down the real reason your life is still broken. It's not because it's too hard to fix. It's because you've normalized it.

You didn't ask for the trauma. You didn't choose the betrayal. You didn't knock your own walls down. But 140 years later, you're still standing in the rubble. And God is asking you one question: when are you going to rebuild?

Your norm determines your outcomes — not your prayers. You can pray all you want, but if your environment, your habits, and your circle are still operating in 140-year dysfunction, nothing changes. God is calling you out of the 140 and into the 52. Out of survival mode and into builder mode. Out of excuses and into execution.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why 52 days is not a timeline, it's an identity
→ The difference between normalizing ruin and normalizing rebuilding
→ Why your norm determines your outcomes, not your prayers
→ How to stop fighting the people God sent to help you
→ The real reason you've been protecting your old normal
→ Why financial, relational, and spiritual freedom all come down to one word: standards

It's Not Your Fault It Broke. It's Your Fault It Stays Broken | Eric Thomas May 24, 2026

It's not your fault it broke. But it is your fault if it stays broken. You didn't ask for the trauma. You didn't choose the betrayal. You didn't plan the divorce, the loss, the abuse, the abandonment. You didn't knock your own walls down. But 140 years later, you're still standing in the rubble. And God is asking you one question: when are you going to rebuild? Using the story of Nehemiah, Pastor Eric Thomas exposes the real reason your life is still broken. It's not because it's too hard to fix. It's not because God hasn't shown up. It's because you haven't owned it yet. Nehemiah looked at walls destroyed for 140 years and rebuilt them in 52 days. Not because he had more resources or a bigger team. Because he stopped blaming, stopped avoiding, and started building.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why power is available but not automatic, and how to activate it in your life
→ The difference between assessing, praying, and finishing, and why most people never get to the third step
→ Why 52 days is all it takes when you stop making excuses and start taking ownership
→ How empty hands don't stay neutral, they either build with you or break what you're building
→ The real reason people who loved you when you were broken start hating you when you start healing
→ Why you can't build with 2 hands anymore, you need one for the work and one for the weapon
→ The electrician story, the credit report testimony, and the Rose Royce revelation that will change how you see God's standard for your life

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
Nehemiah 2:17 — You see the distress we are in; come, let us build
Nehemiah 6:15 — So the wall was finished in 52 days
Ephesians 3:20 — Exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think
Nehemiah 4:17 — Those who built on the wall... with one hand worked and with the other held a weapon

You Don't Need More Truth. You Need This. | Eric Thomas May 17, 2026

You don't need another sermon. You don't need another scripture. You don't need another devotional.

You already know enough truth to be in heaven right now. The problem isn't knowledge. It's that you're not doing what you already know. And that's why you're stuck.

In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers one of the most direct, most convicting words of the year: a message about the real reason your life hasn't changed. It's not more information. It's accountability. And until you stop looking for more truth and start living the truth you already have, nothing will shift.

Using the story of Nathan and David, the analogy of the 8-foot rim, and raw testimony about tithing on his business, Pastor ET breaks down the three levels of accountability that will take your life to the next level: Self. Home. Community. In that order.

Most people skip self and go straight to trying to fix everyone else. That's why it never works. You can't save a drowning person when you're drowning too. You can't hold someone accountable when you haven't dealt with the plank in your own eye.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why your next level isn't coming from more truth — it's coming from accountability
→ The three levels of accountability: Self, Home, Community (and why order matters)
→ Why most Christians know the Word but aren't doing the Word
→ How to be your own Joe Jackson and Joe Clark so no one else has to
→ The difference between butter knife relationships and iron sharpening iron
→ Why you can't dunk on an 8-foot rim and expect 10-foot results
→ What it really means to examine yourself and test yourself (2 Corinthians 13:5)
→ The hospital analogy: why the church isn't full of just sick people
→ Why God had to tell Pastor ET to tithe on his business, not just his personal income

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
2 Corinthians 13:5 — Examine yourself, see whether you are in the faith
Matthew 7:5 — Take the plank out of your own eye first
Joshua 24:15 — As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord
1 Timothy 5:8 — Anyone who does not provide for their household has denied the faith
Proverbs 27:17 — Iron sharpens iron

Your Whole Family Is Waiting on You to Finally Say 'No More' | Eric Thomas May 10, 2026

Your whole family is waiting on you. They just don't know how to ask

There's a "no more" sitting in your spirit right now. A line you should've drawn months ago. A truth you've been carrying alone because saying it out loud feels too costly. So you've stayed silent. You've kept the peace. You've prayed about it. You've waited.

And nothing has changed.

In this message, Eric Thomas breaks down what happens to a home, a marriage, a family — and a calling — when the person who sees the problem won't open their mouth. And what happens the moment they finally do.

What you'll walk away with:
- Why "I'll just pray about it" can be the most damaging response you give
- The difference between keeping the peace and keeping the problem alive
- The 8 reasons we stay silent — and the truth that breaks each one
- Why temporary discomfort is the price of preventing permanent damage
- A direct word for the people who've been punished for telling the truth

Why Your Prayers Don't Have Your Name on Them May 03, 2026

You've been asking God for something. Maybe for years. Maybe you gave up asking because nothing changed.

But what if the problem isn't that God isn't listening? What if the problem is that your prayers don't have your name on them?

In this powerful message, Pastor Eric Thomas breaks down the real reason why so many prayers go unanswered, and it has nothing to do with God's ability or your worthiness. It has everything to do with responsibility. Using the story of Jabez, the electric bill principle, and raw personal testimony, ET reveals the missing ingredient between asking and receiving: you have to be willing to pay for what you pray for.

God isn't holding back your blessing because you're not good enough. He's waiting to see if you're willing to be responsible enough.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why power is available but not automatic, and what activates it
→ The four things Jabez asked for, and why God granted every single one
→ Why your prayers don't have your name on them, and what that really means
→ The electric bill principle: if it's not in your name, you can't call and make changes
→ How to stop waiting for a reward you're not willing to be responsible for
→ Why some of the most gifted people never walk in their anointing
→ The difference between getting paid and being loyal
→ What it really means that "God so loved the world that He gave"
→ Why you have to die before you can live in the next level
→ How being responsible in three areas, yourself, your family, and your community, unlocks everything God has for you

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
1 Chronicles 4:9–10 — Jabez cried out to the Lord
John 3:16 — For God so loved the world that He gave
Acts 8:20 — Your money perish with you because you thought the gift of God could be purchased with money
Matthew 6:33 — Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness
Romans 12:1 — Present your bodies as a living sacrifice

You're Not Trying To Heal. You're Rehearsing The Pain Apr 26, 2026

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

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
Romans 4:17 — God calls those things which do not exist as though they did
Ephesians 1:4-6 — He chose us before the creation of the world
Isaiah 43:18-19 — Forget the former things; see, I am doing a new thing
Galatians 6:9 — In due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart

ET Was Homeless at 16 — Here's What He Had to Give Up to Get Here Apr 19, 2026

ET was homeless at 16. No bank account. No plan. No way out.
So how did he get here?
It wasn't hustle. It wasn't talent. It wasn't connections. It was something most people aren't willing to do — and in this message, he breaks down exactly what it cost him, why God required it, and why the same thing is required of you.
The formula has been in John 3:16 the whole time. Most people read it for comfort. ET reads it as a blueprint.

You Keep Losing to People Who Shouldn't Even Have Power Over You | Eric Thomas Apr 12, 2026

There's a moment in the Bible where a group of religious men tried to use Jesus' name as a trick, and the demon looked at them and said, "Jesus I know. Paul I know. But who are YOU?"
That's the question this message answers. Not who you say you are. Who you actually ARE, in power.
Dr. Eric Thomas, breaks down why so many people have the knowledge of God, the church attendance, the vocabulary, and still keep losing. The problem isn't your faith. It's that you haven't activated what God already gave you.

In this message you'll discover:
→ Why David didn't pray Goliath down — and what he actually did
→ The difference between a form of godliness and real power
→ How a single phone call saved $15,000 (and what that has to do with your spiritual authority)
→ Why "playing small" isn't humility — it's robbing the Kingdom
→ What it looks like to stop letting people with no authority rule your life
The power belongs to you. This message will show you how to pick it back up.

They Taught You The Wrong Definition of Power, Here's The Real One | Eric Thomas 2026 Apr 05, 2026

Most people spend their entire life chasing power and never actually get it — because nobody ever showed them what real power looks like.
It doesn't look like the loudest person in the room. It doesn't look like the biggest title, the biggest stage, or the most followers. And it definitely doesn't look like domination.
In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas breaks down one of the most overlooked moments in scripture, John 13, the foot washing, and reveals that Jesus gave His most powerful lesson not from a pulpit, not in a temple, but at a dinner table. With His enemies sitting right there.
The message? There is a POSTURE to power. And until you understand it, you'll keep performing power instead of actually walking in it.
ET covers:
→ Why everything most people were taught about power is backwards
→ The foot washing — why Jesus did it outside the church and what that means for you
→ The difference between Meek = Weak, Strong = Pride, and Power Under Purpose
→ Why real authority shows up in hospital rooms, school districts & neighborhoods, not just pulpits
→ How Joseph didn't just forgive his brothers — he saw it the way God saw it
→ Why meekness is not passivity — it's the tool that activates everything
→ The posture that makes the first last and the last first
This message will change how you define power forever.

You Have 2 Choices This Year. God is Waiting to See Which One You Pick. Mar 29, 2026

You have 2 choices this year. And God is waiting to see which one you pick.
Pastor Eric Thomas (ET The Hip Hop Preacher) breaks down the only decision that actually matters this year — using the story of Jonah to show why every time you try to handle it in your own strength, your ship starts breaking up. Your relationships. Your finances. Your peace. All of it.
But when you operate in divine strength? Alignment. Obedience. Consistency. Long-term fruit.
The choice sounds simple. But most of us keep picking the wrong one, and wondering why nothing is working.
This sermon will tell you exactly why. And exactly what to do instead.

You're Not Suffering. Here's What's Really Happening. Mar 23, 2026

You've been calling it suffering. You've been calling it surrender. Pastor Eric Thomas says it's neither — and what's actually happening might be the most important thing you hear all year.

In Part 3 of the Royal Airlines series, Pastor ET delivers a message that will challenge everything you thought you knew about obedience, people pleasing, and following God's plan. Using the story of King Saul in 1 Samuel 15, he exposes the real reason most Christians stay stuck — not confusion, not weakness, but two competing wills. Yours and God's.

If you've ever people-pleased your way out of a blessing, let people's voices drown out God's direction, or found yourself wondering why obedience and people pleasing feel identical — this message is for you.

The flight plan is already written. The question is whether you'll follow it.

In this message you'll discover:

Why "surrender" isn't a real problem — and what the real issue actually is
The dangerous difference between people pleasing and true obedience to God
How to stop people pleasing when it feels like the right thing to do
What King Saul's biggest mistake reveals about our own relationship with God
A practical tool to help you know whether you're obeying God or just people pleasing
Why people pleasing is actually hurting the people you're trying to help

You're Not Weak, You're Just in Control. Here's Why That's the Problem Mar 14, 2026

Are you doing all the right things, working hard, staying committed, putting in the effort, but still not getting the results you know you should have? The problem might not be your effort. It might be your need to be in control.

In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers one of the most raw and personal sermons of the Royal Airlines series, a message about what's really standing between you and everything God has for you.

The formula is simple: surrender. Not weakness, surrender. Because the same way you board a plane and hand your life to a pilot you've never met, God is asking you to trust Him with everything you've been white-knuckling on your own.

Pastor Eric shares the real story behind his books, from selling 5,000 copies while fighting for control, to 300,000 copies the moment he surrendered the process. Then going back to control. Then failing again. The full cycle — nothing held back.

In this message you'll discover:

Why motion without progress is a sign you're in control — not God
The real reason control feels safe — and why it's actually destroying you
Why control is a spiritual problem, not just a personality trait
How the book story reveals a pattern that shows up in your relationships, finances, and family
What it actually looks like to surrender — not as a feeling, but as a decision
The formula: unless a grain of wheat falls and dies, it remains alone

You're Not Tired of Trying, You're Tired of Giving In Mar 07, 2026

Most people don't quit because God told them to move. They quit because something invisible made them uncomfortable.

In this message, Pastor TJ Tyus breaks down the one principle that determines whether you drift through life or stay rooted in what actually matters:

Priority over Preference = Stability.
When preference wins, you drift. When priority wins, you remain.

You'll learn:
→ Why you keep making the right moves for the wrong reasons
→ How invisible "music" (pressure, comparison, feelings, culture) pulls you out of your assignment
→ The real reason you can't stay committed — and it's not willpower
→ How to decide before the pressure shows up
→ Why staying seated is not passive, it's the most active thing you can do
Rosa Parks didn't stay seated because she was tired physically. She said: "I was tired of giving in."

This message will challenge you to stop giving in to preference and start living from priority — in your health, your relationships, your faith, and your future.

🏛️ ABOUT A PLACE OF CHANGE MINISTRY

A Place of Change Ministry (APOC) is a Spirit-filled, Bible-based church located in Grand Ledge, Michigan, founded and led by Pastor Eric Thomas — widely known as ET The Hip Hop Preacher — and Associate Pastor TJ Tyus. APOC exists to help people discover purpose, develop discipline, and walk boldly in their God-given assignment. We believe the church is not just a place you attend — it's a community you belong to, a family that serves together, and a launching pad for everything God has called you to become. Every Saturday at 11AM, we gather in person and online to deliver messages that are rooted in Scripture and built for real life — messages that challenge you to grow mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. Whether you're a longtime believer or you're just starting to explore faith, there is a seat here for you.

You're Struggling Because You're in the Wrong Seat | Get Into Your Assigned Seat Feb 28, 2026

Are you stressed, stuck, or constantly comparing yourself to everyone else? The problem might not be your circumstances — it might be that you're sitting in a seat that was never assigned to you.

In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers a word that will shift how you see your life, your purpose, and your next season. Drawing from his own story — homeless at 16, a high school dropout eating from trash cans — Pastor Eric shows what happened when he stopped chasing everyone else's seat and got into his own. Everything changed.

God didn't assign your seat by accident. Before you were born, He factored in your gifts, your history, your capacity, and your calling. He said — this seat. This flight. This moment. Your job isn't to find the best seat in the room. It's to get into the one that already has your name on it.

In this message you'll discover:

Why your struggle may have nothing to do with your effort — and everything to do with your seat
How social media comparison is keeping you out of your assignment
What it really means that God chose YOU before you ever chose Him
Why some seats are seasonal — and how to trust the transfer
The leadership principle: every seat has a function, not everyone is called to the mic
The formula for your clearance: Calling + Confirmation + Character

📖 Scriptures Referenced: Ephesians 2:10 · Psalm 139:16 · John 15:16 · Romans 12:4–5 · 1 Corinthians 14:40 · Luke 12:48 · Ecclesiastes 12:13

✈️ Royal Airlines Declaration: "At Place of Change Ministry, we will not compete for seats. We will not self-promote into instability. We will not abandon our assignment because another seat looks better. We will stay where God placed us — until He moves us."

You're Not Stuck Because You're Lazy. You're Stuck Because You Keep Picking It Back Up. Feb 21, 2026

You're working hard. You're showing up. You're doing everything right.

So why does it feel like you keep ending up in the same place?

Pastor Eric Thomas breaks down the real reason, and it's not your effort, your discipline, or your faith.

It's what you keep picking back up every time God tries to free you from it.

Not the bad stuff.
The good stuff.
The comfortable stuff.
The stuff that used to work, but is quietly holding you back from what's next.
This message will change how you see your season.

📖 KEY SCRIPTURES:
Hebrews 12:1-2 — "Let us throw off everything that hinders…"
John 15:2 — "Every branch that bears fruit He prunes…"
Galatians 5:1 — "It is for freedom that Christ has set you free…"
1 Corinthians 10:23 — "Not everything is beneficial."

💡 WHAT YOU'LL TAKE FROM THIS:
— Why 2026 demands a different kind of letting go
— The difference between sinful and out of season
— Why God prunes what's actually working
— How to stop making good things your god
— What it really means to fix your eyes

ABOUT APOC MINISTRY

A Place of Change (APOC) Ministry exists for one reason — transformation. Not just showing up to church, but actually becoming someone different when you leave.

Founded by Dr. Eric Thomas — globally recognized speaker, author, and motivational force — APOC is built on the belief that the anointing changes what willpower can't. Pastor E.T. didn't grow up in church. He grew up in the streets of Detroit. And that's exactly why his message cuts through — he's not preaching theory, he's preaching his life.

Alongside him is Associate Pastor TJ Tyus, whose leadership and pastoral heart help shape the culture of APOC from the inside out — equipping the church to grow not just in numbers, but in depth.

Together they are building a ministry that meets you where you are and refuses to leave you there.

Why Do You Keep Taking the Crown Off When God Called You Royal? Feb 07, 2026

The Real Reason You Don’t Live Royal Every Day Feb 01, 2026

Why do you feel strong in one moment…
and small in the next?

Why do you get encouraged, confident, clear then shrink in familiar places, around familiar people, or under familiar pressure?

This message exposes the real reason many of us don’t live fully in who God called us to be every day.

It’s not a lack of information.
It’s not motivation.
It’s not effort.

It’s unhealed wounds shaping how we think, react, and repeat patterns we swore we were done with.

In this message, you’ll discover:

Why confidence fades in certain environments
The difference between freedom and true royalty
How unhealed wounds distort identity
Why repetition shapes belief more than truth
How to stop shrinking without pretending or performing

This isn’t about wearing a crown at church or when you feel good, It’s about understanding why you take it off in specific moments — and how healing restores what was already yours.

You don’t earn royalty.
You remember it.

This Is What Happens When You Forget You’re Royalty Jan 25, 2026

Most people don’t lose their power overnight—they slowly forget who they are.
This message reveals what happens when identity is stolen… and how it gets restored.
Most people don’t lose their power in a dramatic moment.
They adapt. They adjust. They survive.
And over time, they forget who they were always meant to be.

In this message, Eric Thomas exposes what happens when people forget they’re royalty—how identity gets robbed quietly, how survival replaces authority, and why remembering who you are changes everything.

This isn’t about hype.
It’s about identity, responsibility, and living from who God intended you to be—not beneath it.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re living below your potential, shrinking to fit environments, or settling for less than what you know you’re capable of… this message is for you.

God Already Fixed It — You Brought It Back Jan 18, 2026

God already healed it.
God already fixed it.
So why does it keep coming back?

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Eric Thomas exposes a truth many believers overlook: sometimes the problem isn’t that God didn’t move—it’s that we reintroduced what He already removed.

Using a simple but unforgettable illustration, Eric explains how healing can fail to last when the source stays the same. Just like getting sick again because you kept using an old toothbrush, many of us unknowingly return to the habits, mindsets, and environments God already freed us from.

The miracle was real.
The healing worked.
But the mindset didn’t change.

You Won’t Use a Dirty Cup—So Why Would God Pour Into You? Jan 11, 2026

Most of us wouldn’t drink from a dirty cup —
but we still expect God to pour fresh blessings into unclean vessels.

In this message, Eric challenges a hard truth:
freedom doesn’t remove contamination — instructions do.

God isn’t withholding His presence.
He’s protecting it.

This sermon unpacks why so many people feel free but still stuck,
how impatience, insecurity, overthinking, jealousy, and strife quietly contaminate our lives,
and why immediate obedience is often the reset we’re praying for.

If you’re asking:

“Why am I still stuck?”
“Why does it feel like God isn’t answering?”
“What am I missing in this season?”

This message is for you.

👉 This sermon continues a series on moving from another year to a new year by learning how to prepare for what God wants to pour.

Don't Carry Last Year Into This Season Jan 03, 2026

This year won’t change just because the calendar did. If nothing shifts internally, this season will look exactly like the last one, same stress, same patterns, same outcomes. Not because you’re cursed… but because you’re carrying what was never cleaned.

In this message, Eric breaks down why a new year isn’t automatic and why preparation, not intention, determines whether this season becomes your best or your hardest. Drawing from Exodus 19, he unpacks the idea of washing your own clothes—identifying the internal contamination, habits, and responses that quietly sabotage progress.

This isn’t about starting over. It’s about stopping the transfer of last year’s weight into this season. If you’re ready for real change, not just motivation, this message is for you.

Key themes:
• Why “another year” and a “new year” are not the same
• How unresolved habits contaminate finances, relationships, and peace
• What it actually means to reset before you rebuild
• Why some cycles require more than a quick fix 👉

You Don't Have Burnout. Here's What You Actually Have Dec 27, 2025

You don’t have burnout.
Burnout is the symptom — not the root.

If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and constantly “needed,” this message challenges the story you’ve been telling yourself. The real issue isn’t laziness, weakness, or even stress. It’s distraction, misplaced responsibility, and carrying burdens God never assigned you.

In this message, we unpack:

Why busyness often disguises itself as faithfulness
How inheriting other people’s anxiety steals your rest
Why Jesus repeatedly withdrew — even when people needed Him
The biblical rhythm for real rest that restores focus and alignment

If you’ve been running on empty, this isn’t a message about doing less — it’s about doing what actually matters.

Your Burnout Has Nothing to Do With Stress Dec 20, 2025

Stress isn’t the cause of burnout — it’s the warning sign.
What part of your life feels out of alignment right now?

In this message, Eric Thomas challenges one of the most common assumptions about burnout and exhaustion—and reveals what’s actually draining you.

Using the story of Mary and Martha, this message exposes how busyness, overwork, and misplaced priorities quietly rob us of peace, clarity, and spiritual alignment. Stress isn’t the root problem—it’s the signal that something deeper is off.

If you’re doing everything you’re supposed to do but still feel overwhelmed, anxious, or empty, this message is for you.

This isn’t about doing less.
It’s about doing the right thing at the right time.

You’re Stretched Too Thin? Here’s Why Dec 13, 2025

If you feel stretched too thin, it’s not because you’re weak—it’s because you’re carrying weight God never told you to carry alone.

In this message, we unpack why overworking isn’t faithfulness, why burnout is often a warning, and how God’s strategy for rest includes delegation, clarity, and shared responsibility.

Using Matthew 11 and Exodus 18, this sermon exposes a hard truth:
Overworking can be disobedience disguised as responsibility.

If you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, or trying to do everything by yourself—this is your reset.

Key themes in this message:

Why rest is a real strategy, not laziness
“Make your load lighter” (God’s leadership principle)
Delegation without guilt
Why capable people matter
How clarity eliminates confusion

📖 Scriptures: Matthew 11:28–30, Exodus 18:17–23

When God Pulls the Emergency Brake: The Warning Before the Breakdown Dec 06, 2025

What if the thing blocking your breakthrough isn't more hustle… but a lack of rest?

In this powerful message, Dr. Eric Thomas unpacks why God is pulling the emergency brake on your life—not to punish you, but to protect you from a breakdown. Drawing from Matthew 11:28–30 and Luke 5:16, ET reveals that rest isn't optional—it's a spiritual strategy modeled by Jesus Himself.

You'll discover:
- Why rest is the intentional act of stopping work, noise, and pressure so your body can recover, your mind can reset, and your spirit can reconnect with God
- How Jesus often withdrew to lonely places to pray—and what that rhythm means for your schedule, relationships, and purpose
- The difference between resting from people vs. resting with God—and why December is your reset season
- Why 98% of major food chains stay open 24/7, but the one that rests (Chick-fil-A) is the one everybody respects
- How to pause, pray, read, and reset before life resets you the hard way

This isn't about doing nothing. It's about discipline over distraction. It's about pulling away so you don't fall apart. Before God uses you greatly, He wants to restore you deeply.

Key Scriptures: Matthew 11:28–30, Luke 5:16, Genesis 2, Philippians 4:6–7, Jeremiah 29:11

What to do this December:
• Pause – Turn down the noise so you can hear from God
• Pray – Talk to God more than you talk to humans
• Read – One verse, one Psalm, one Proverb daily
• Reset – Drink water, get sleep, clean your space, protect your peace

Rest is not quitting. It's recharging. It's not lazy—it's obedience.

Factory Reset: Rest Is God’s Strategy for Your Next Level Nov 30, 2025

What if the thing blocking your next level isn’t a lack of grind… but a lack of rest?

In this message, Dr. Eric Thomas unpacks God’s strategy for a factory reset — not to punish you, but to restore you deeply so He can use you greatly. Drawing from Jeremiah 29:11 and Jesus’ own rhythm of withdrawing to rest, ET shows why heaven is calling you to stop worshiping hustle and start honoring rest as a spiritual strategy.

You’ll hear:
- Why God told ET to separate accounts and start preparing at the end of the year for the next year
- How a strategy coach put him on “idea punishment” and unlocked a new level of impact
- Why Matthew 11:28–30 reveals rest as a pillar of success, not a reward after success
- How Jesus often withdrew (Luke 5:16) and what that means for your schedule, your ministry, and your family
Why this season at APOC is a factory reset: reset, rest, refresh, restore
This isn’t about laziness. It’s about alignment. Before God uses you greatly, He restores you deeply.

God's Purpose vs. World Programming: The Ultimate Battle for Your Soul Nov 23, 2025

In this powerful youth-focused message, Pastor TJ Tyus teaches why you have to stop clocking their tea and start clocking YOUR tea:

T = Thoughts – the collision of voices in your head
E = Emotions – real, but not your boss
A = Actions – the habits that create your life

Using the stories of Cain & Abel, Adam & Eve, and real-life testimonies of grief, anger, and missed opportunities, Pastor TJ shows how:

Life doesn’t put things in you, it reveals what’s already inside
Two kids in the same house can pick two completely different futures based on the voice they follow
You don’t have to repeat your parents’ pain – you can rewrite the pattern and break generational curses

If you’ve struggled with anger, low self-worth, or just “going with the crowd,” this message will challenge you to:

Clock your thoughts – “As a man thinketh…”
Clock your emotions – Feel them, but don’t let them drive
Clock your actions – Excellence eliminates options

How To Know If It’s God’s Voice… Or Just Your Trauma Talking Nov 16, 2025

You’ve been praying for clarity… but the real battle isn’t around you — it’s inside your ears.
Trauma has a way of becoming a soundtrack: a quiet, constant melody that tells you you’re not enough, you’re not loved, you’re not chosen. And if you don’t confront it, you’ll confuse the noise of your past with the voice of your Father.

In this message, you’ll learn how to recognize the wrong soundtrack, silence the lies, and finally hear God’s voice with confidence, peace, and identity.

God calls you royal. Trauma calls you broken.
This message shows you how to choose the right voice.

How to Win when you're outnumbered Nov 09, 2025

Outnumbered at work, in life, or in your head? This message breaks down a counterintuitive playbook from Gideon: God reduced the team from 32,000 to 300 so the win couldn’t be credited to human strength. Translation: purity over popularity, alignment over volume, covenant over control.

You’ll learn:

Why you can’t defeat what you secretly worship
How God “thins” your circle to protect your destiny
The 1% principle: purity beats numbers in the Kingdom
A practical path to marital & life peace: standards, prayer, order

Key Scriptures: Judges 7; Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 23; Romans 8:1; Job 13:15

Takeaway: Stop demanding a 32,000-man solution. Align with God’s way—and watch 300 be more than enough.

Nobody’s Coming To Save You — God Sent You Nov 02, 2025

Your life should follow the identity you have from God—not your circumstances. Gideon knew about God, but he let problems define Him. When Gideon complained, God didn’t argue with his odds or explain the Midianites; God spoke to his identity: “Go in the strength you have.” (Judges 6) That’s the shift—stop asking your situation who you are. Let God name you, then let life follow.
In this message, Eric Thomas helps you move from survival to assignment:
- Word → Identity → Habits → Results (stop running the loop backwards).
- Identity over insecurity: Royal, chosen, equipped (1 Peter 2:9)—before the results show up.
- Power over effort: No battery, no movement.
- Kingdom motive: Not “bless me” religion—“so there may be meat in My house”
- You’re the answer: God isn’t sending a rescuer for your house—He’s sending you.
Scriptures: Judges 6, 1 Peter 2:9, Malachi 3, Hebrews 11, Psalm 23, Romans 8.

When Your Life Doesn't Match Your Vision (Do This) Oct 26, 2025

When your internal picture and your actual life don't agree, frustration, doubt, and stagnation creep in. In today's message, ET testifies about a fourth-quarter heart check with God—where the views dipped, pressure mounted, and comparison tried to set the tone. Instead of forcing outcomes, he asked for wisdom (James 1:5), stopped chasing human approval (Gal. 1:10), and watched God confirm direction with undeniable signs.

This talk will push you to pick a side: talkers or builders. Keep that praise on repeat, protect your environment from doubt, and align your plan with God's plan—so the picture in your mind and the life you live finally match.

Key Scriptures: Deut. 11:24 • Josh. 1:3 • Isa. 58:11 • Psalm 1:3 • Mark 5:38–43 • James 1:5–8 • Gal. 1:10 • Prov. 3:5–6 • Matt. 7:7–8

FAVORED: Why Some Believers Walk In It (and Others Don't) Oct 19, 2025

Everyone wants favor—but not everyone walks in it. ET breaks down the difference between being God's favorite and actually living favored. The key? Non-negotiables. Daniel prayed three times a day even when a law said not to (Daniel 6). Ananias and Sapphira said "yes" with their mouths but negotiated the covenant with their hearts (Acts 5). In this message, you'll learn: - Why modifying God's instructions cancels momentum - How to set spiritual non-negotiables (prayer, integrity, obedience) - The trap of "I'll obey…until it costs me" - Why favor follows alignment, not popularity or connections If you're tired of praying without progress, this is for you. Lock in your non-negotiables, and watch God do what men can't. 👇 Drop your one non-negotiable for this week in the comments.

Stuck? It's Not Discipline—It's Dialogue Oct 12, 2025

Description

Wrong words wrote your life. Today, we kill the script and install truth. It's not a discipline problem—it's a dialogue problem. Conversation → conviction → direction.

In this message: • How self-talk keeps you looping the same outcomes • Why "faith comes by hearing" works both ways (truth vs. trash) • Jesus chose standards over suggestions—so can you • Practical steps to end contaminated conversations + start divine dialogue

Scriptures: Romans 10:17, Proverbs 4:23, Proverbs 18:21, Genesis 3 ("Who told you…?"), Matthew 16:21–23, Jeremiah 29:11

Pray & Act This Week:

Mute a source that feeds fear.

When Life Feels Out of Control — Here's What God Says to Do Oct 05, 2025

Your finances are chaotic. Your family's struggling. You're praying but nothing's changing. This isn't a discipline problem - it's a dominion problem. God gave you authority over your life (Genesis 1:26-28), but most believers don't know how to walk in it.

In this message, ET reveals the formula: HI × SI = DO (Human Interaction × Spiritual Influence = Dominion Outcome) - and how to take back control in every area.
You'll learn:
• Why life feels out of control (it's not what you think)
• The authority God gave you that the enemy stole
• How to move from anxiety to dominion starting today
Key Scriptures: Genesis 1:26–28, Luke 10:19, Deuteronomy 28:13, Romans 8:11

Group Thinking vs. God Thinking (How You Lose Ground) Sep 21, 2025

If you feel like life keeps pulling you backwards, this word is for you. Dr. Eric Thomas breaks down group thinking vs. God thinking—why we abandon conviction to keep the crowd happy, and how that one decision puts our life in reverse.

Learn the shift that takes you from blaming to building, from fear to faith, and from stuck… to forward.

We unpack Genesis 3, Romans 12:2, Joshua 24:15, and Luke 22:42 to expose the subtle order shift that derails destinies: replacing God → me → relationships with people → feelings → God.

When you restore God's order, He restores what the locusts stole—double for your trouble.

Stop Cosigning Their Chaos: Why You're Paying for other people's sins Sep 14, 2025

You didn't do it—so why are you bleeding for it?

This message exposes the trap of sharing other people's disobedience in the name of "love" or "loyalty." From Eden to your bank account, ET breaks down why Adam wasn't deceived—but still joined in—and how that same pattern wrecks our finances, families, and faith today. You'll learn a simple two-step standard: Don't share sin. Quarantine the virus. If you've been carrying consequences that aren't yours, this is your exit ramp.

What you'll learn - The difference between support and sabotage (aka enabling) - A boundary rule that protects your marriage & money (the "toothbrush/credit" analogy) - The COVID framework: how to quarantine spiritual viruses before they spread. Scriptures that set the standard (Gen 3:6; 1 Tim 5:22; Prov 1:10,15; 2 Cor 6:14–17)

If this hit home, name one boundary you're setting this week.

The Truth About Shame: Stop Letting It Hold You Back Sep 07, 2025

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.

Stop entertaining the enemy's lies.
Replace shame and insecurity with God's truth.
Take off the old "9 ½" mindsets and step into the "11" God has prepared for you.
Focus on YOUR tree, not someone else's.

The #1 Reason You Keep Missing Your Breakthrough Aug 24, 2025

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.

Praying Won't Fix Your Disobedience Problem Aug 10, 2025

You're doing the work. You're showing up. You're grinding. So why are you still not winning?

Here's the hard truth: God will not bless disorder. Some of the things you've been praying about… you shouldn't be praying about at all. You should be fixing them.

Inside: 🔹 How prayer can become a substitute for obedience 🔹 Why effort without order will always fall short 🔹 The one spiritual principle that turns hard work into breakthrough 🔹 How to get back in alignment so God can finally move

Stop asking God to change what He's already told you to fix.

Why God Is Withholding Your Blessings (Hard Truth) Jul 27, 2025

Are you praying for blessings while ignoring God's blueprint? In this powerful sermon, Pastor Eric Thomas exposes the hidden reason many believers stay stuck—it's not a lack of faith or effort, it's being out of order.

What If the Miracle Is God Saying "No"? Jul 20, 2025

What if the miracle isn't the healing… but how you respond when it doesn't come? What if God's "No" isn't rejection—but resurrection in disguise?

In this deeply personal and heartbreaking sermon, Pastor TJ Tyus shares what it means to believe in miracles, even when God doesn't answer the way you prayed. After losing his daughter, TJ stood before the same God who said "No" and chose to keep going. Chose to keep praising.

This isn't just about loss. It's about a deeper kind of faith—the kind that doesn't die when your prayer isn't answered, but lives on in how you move forward.

Inside this message:

Why "No" doesn't mean God isn't good
What the folded cloth in the tomb really meant
How God's "No" can still be a miracle
Why your comeback might be the only sermon someone else will ever believe
How to go forward when you're grieving what should've been

If you've ever prayed with everything you had and still heard silence… This message is for you. Because sometimes, the greatest proof of God's power is in how you keep going after the pain.

The Law of Sustainment: Why You Fall Off Even When You Start Strong Jul 13, 2025

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

Why You Must Finish What You Started Jul 06, 2025

Too often, we pray, prepare, and speak big faith — but never follow through. Then when life doesn't work out the way we hoped, we blame God for what we abandoned.

In this powerful message, Pastor Eric Thomas challenges you to stop pointing fingers and start taking ownership. God is a finisher — and if you're made in His image, so are you. Whether it's your calling, your marriage, your business, or your spiritual growth, this message will inspire you to align your actions with your faith and complete the work God gave you.

Stop blaming God. Finish what YOU started.

You're Starting Things You'll Never Finish… And It's Costing You Everything Jun 29, 2025

You've been praying. You've been showing up. You've been making moves... but nothing's changing.

In this week's episode, Eric Thomas drops a masterclass that will challenge everything you thought you understood about progress, blessings, and breakthrough. The truth is—God can't bless what you won't finish. Most of us start strong but never complete the assignment. And then we wonder why the favor isn't falling.

Dr. Thomas goes deep on:

Why starting isn't the same as being obedient
How unfinished business is blocking your blessing
The role of accountability in transformation
What God's real standard is—and why "average" is not in His vocabulary
How Genesis reveals the system for lasting impact: Start. Complete. Rest.

This isn't just a sermon—it's a wake-up call. It's time to build your life, your relationships, your finances, and your calling… with infrastructure, not just inspiration.

God's Standard Is Perfection... Why You Keep Falling Short Jun 22, 2025

In this life-changing message, Pastor Eric Thomas shares a raw and honest word about what's really holding us back: our unfinished business and our excuses for living below God's standard. He exposes the street philosophies and manipulative mindsets we carry into our faith, relationships, finances, and everyday habits.

Through the powerful reminder from Genesis, Pastor Eric reveals that God doesn't just start things — He finishes them perfectly — and calls us to do the same. If you've been stuck starting and stopping, or lowering your standard to feel comfortable, this sermon will convict you to embrace God's perfect standard and let your trials work for you, not against you.

Being Fire Resistant Isn't Enough... Become Fire Proof Jun 15, 2025

In this week's powerful Sunday sermon, Pastor TJ Tyus breaks down what it really means to thrive through life's toughest fires, not just survive them.

Listen in as he unpacks the difference between faith that holds up for a season and faith that stands firm no matter how hot it gets. You'll hear practical truth about training when no one's watching, finding courage when you're misunderstood, anchoring your life in purpose, and staying disciplined when your mood says quit.

If you've ever felt like giving up because the heat was too much, this message will remind you: the mission must be greater than your mood.

Be encouraged, be challenged, and be transformed — then share your story with us.

You're Exhausted Because You're Trying to Do What Only God Can Do Jun 08, 2025

You're tired. Stressed. Discouraged. And you're wondering why life still feels so heavy—even when you're doing "all the right things."

In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas challenges you to stop just coming to church and start using what God gave you. God is not just powerful—He's personal. The same God who created the galaxies created you… and He has features you're not tapping into.

Stop fighting with your own strength. Let the Good Shepherd carry you.

You're Not Covered… And It's Costing You Everything Jun 01, 2025

In this powerful episode, Dr. Eric Thomas breaks down the difference between being connected and being covered. Using the story of Samson and Delilah, ET reveals what happens when we fall in love with people who don't protect our purpose—and how operating in transactional relationships leaves us vulnerable, distracted, and off our divine assignment.

You'll also learn how agape love—like the kind Jonathan had for David and Ruth had for Naomi—can transform your life when you're truly under the right covering.

If you've been doing life alone, loving without being loved back, or showing up for others who wouldn't do the same for you… this is your wake-up call.

It's time to stop being exposed. It's time to get covered.

In this soul-stirring message, Dr. Eric Thomas unpacks the spiritual consequences of being disconnected—from your purpose, your people, and your covering.

God's Not the Problem… You're Just Out of Alignment May 11, 2025

In this powerful, transparent, and Spirit-led message, Candis Quinney shares her personal journey of learning the difference between doing "good things" and doing God's will — God's way.

You'll laugh, reflect, and be challenged as she uses real-life stories — from a midnight run-in in Detroit to corporate burnout and spiritual resistance — to reveal how misalignment can show up even when you think you're doing the right thing.

Inside the message:

A lock and key demonstration that visually shows what happens when we try to unlock God's will with the wrong alignment.
The story of February 1st — the night God gave her a literal warning after she broke alignment with her fiancé's (now husband's) wise counsel.
How being CJ Quinney's wife taught her the value of covering, submission, and walking in borrowed authority.
The moment God asked her: "That celebration you planned… is that what will really make him happy?"
A powerful two-day sabbatical that shifted everything — when she stopped striving and learned to press in.

She weaves these with scriptures like Isaiah 53 and Galatians 5, teaching that lasting refreshment doesn't come from rest alone — it comes from realignment.

🙏🏽 4 Steps to Realignment

Be Honest – Admit where you're off-track
Accept Covering – Don't reject the people God sent to protect you
Submit – Even Jesus submitted to John
Press – You can be near God and still not get the breakthrough until you reach intentionally

📲 Let this be your moment to get back in alignment. Your peace, clarity, and purpose are waiting on the other side.

You Got Everything…Except Peace! Apr 28, 2025

This message is not just for the lost — it's for the faithful who've drifted.

You didn't rebel. You're not out in the streets. You've just been doing life your way… and it's taken you farther from God than you realized.

In this powerful word, Eric Thomas reminds us: You can be productive… and still disconnected. You can be blessed… and still broken.

Like the prodigal son, you've moved away from the Father — not through rebellion, but through self-reliance.

This is your moment to stop running, stop fixing, stop pretending — and come home.

Have you ever felt like you're doing all the right things — praying, showing up, reading your Bible — but still not seeing real change?

In this Resurrection Weekend message, Pastor TJ dives into the real reason people stay stuck even when they're trying their best. Sometimes the breakthrough isn't about doing more… it's about dying to more.

We're unpacking:

The spiritual danger of "grave clothes"
Why submission comes before resistance
What it really means to walk in the abundant life Jesus died for
How to push past your threshold and resurrect a new you

Your Emotions Are Sabotaging Your Destiny Apr 13, 2025

Some of us aren't stuck because God isn't moving—we're stuck because we won't let go. In this powerful message, Pastor Eric Thomas challenges us to face the truth: you can't step into your divine assignment while clinging to what God already buried.

Whether it's grief, emotional wounds, toxic relationships, or habits we've justified too long… it's time. God said move, but we're still mourning.

Through the life of Moses and the charge to Joshua, this episode reveals the call to not only be spiritually strong, but physically and emotionally sound to fulfill God's purpose.

💡 God isn't calling you to survive. He's calling you to be amazing—in your health, your emotions, and your leadership.

🎙️ Listen now and ask yourself: Am I still camped at the grave when God's trying to lead me to the promise?

Why You Can't Be Average and Anointed! Apr 06, 2025

You can't be average and anointed. Period. In this week's powerful message from APOC Ministries, Dr. Eric Thomas delivers a straight-up challenge: stop blaming the devil for what your laziness, procrastination, and lack of execution are causing. Average is not God's standard, and it's certainly not His love language.

If you've been wondering why you're not seeing breakthrough, favor, or elevation—it might be time to look inward. ET reminds us that being amazing at what God already told you to do is often the only thing standing between you and your next level.

Then, Pastor TJ Tyus takes us deeper, breaking down how Jesus' life shows us the path to anointing: dark development, submission, consistency, and excellence.

🔥 This episode will:

Challenge the mindset keeping you stuck
Call out the weapons you've formed against yourself
Help you shift from mediocrity to mastery
Remind you that favor follows faithfulness

📖 Scriptures referenced: Romans 12:2, Luke 2:46-52, 1 Samuel 16 & 17, Isaiah 54:17

➡️ Ready to stop being average and start walking in your anointing? Press play.

AI Is Winning Because We Stopped Being Excellent Mar 30, 2025

What if every single day was your Pro Day… and you didn't even know it?

In this passionate and prophetic message, Dr. Eric Thomas (ET the Hip Hop Preacher) breaks down what it truly means to be indispensable in a world that's replacing average with AI and mediocrity with machines. Drawing from Luke 2:46 and the example of Jesus at 12 years old, ET reminds us that the standard isn't "good"—it's amazing.

📌 Are you operating in excellence… or just getting by? 📌 Are you showing up like the opportunity depends on it… or assuming grace will cover your lack of effort?

Just like athletes only get one shot to prove themselves on Pro Day, you don't get unlimited chances to show the world—and God—who you really are. If you want to be indispensable, you've got to stop blending in and start standing out.

👉 This isn't about hype. It's about heavenly accountability. 👉 You were built to be amazing. Not replaceable.

So the question is… If today was Pro Day, would you make the cut?

God Never Told You to Get a Job — That Was You! Mar 23, 2025

Let's be clear — God never called you to clock in. He called you to carry out a command. In this unapologetic sermon, Dr. Eric Thomas exposes the lie too many believers are living: calling it a "career" when it's really disobedience in disguise.

You're burnt out because you're building your life around a job God never gave you. You're stressed because you're answering to man instead of walking in your divine assignment. ET breaks down the difference between working for a paycheck and walking in purpose — and why one drains you while the other transforms you.

This isn't just a sermon — it's a spiritual intervention.

🔥 Still praying for clarity? God already gave it — you're just too busy chasing comfort. 🔥 Tired of starting over? Maybe it's time to finally obey, fully. 🔥 This word will either offend you or free you.

You can't quit a divine assignment. And you can't fake obedience.

It Costs NOT to Be the Boss! 🔥 Stop Living in Mediocrity Mar 16, 2025

🚨 Listen to me—it costs NOT to be the boss! 🚨

Look at David—if he had stayed a shepherd, if he had let fear stop him, if he had let Goliath do all the talking, Israel would have stayed in defeat! But David knew the cost of not stepping up was greater than the cost of facing the giant.

When you refuse to lead, when you shrink back, when you let fear run your life, you're not just losing money—you're losing destiny! God called you to be the head and not the tail, above and not beneath (Deut. 28:13)! But if you don't move in faith, you forfeit the blessing.

David ran to the battle because he understood: IT COSTS NOT TO BE THE BOSS! And that's exactly where so many of us are—stuck in mediocrity, waiting for someone else to lead, afraid to take control of what God has already promised.

🔥 Are you active in your faith, or are you sitting back, reserved, waiting for the "right time?" 🔥 Are you settling for good enough when God called you to EXCELLENCE? 🔥 It's time to get up, get active, and walk in your purpose!

This sermon is a gut check! Stop living in the bare minimum and step into the greatness God has for you. God doesn't do average—neither should you!

The Power of Humility: Why Your Strength is Holding You Back! Mar 09, 2025

Are you relying on your own strength to push through life's challenges? What if the very strength you pride yourself on is the barrier to your breakthrough? In this transformative sermon, Pastor TJ Tyus reveals why humility—not strength—is the key to unlocking true growth and significance.

We often cling to our own ways, stubbornly refusing to change. But as Pastor TJ shares through powerful stories and scripture, God is calling us to humble ourselves, learn, and immediately apply His truth. True hunger for a life of purpose begins with letting go of our pride and embracing humility.

🛑 Key Takeaways:

The difference between strength and true power: Why God uses your weakness.
How form and obedience lead to greater effectiveness.
The secret to moving from success to significance.

✨ Scripture Highlights:

Matthew 23:12 — "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."
Philippians 2:8 — "He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."

The Battle Within: Breaking Free from the Old You Mar 02, 2025

🔥Are you stuck in outdated habits, resisting change, and wondering why your breakthrough hasn't come? In this dynamic sermon, Dr. Eric Thomas and Pastor TJ Tyus break down the battle between the old you and the new you—the war between staying comfortable and stepping into your destiny.

🚨 Eric Thomas reveals the truth: Your biggest enemy isn't external—it's the "inner me." The version of you unwilling to train, unwilling to develop, and unwilling to let go of old ways is what's holding you back from God's plan for your life.

⚔️ TJ Tyus takes it deeper, exposing how pain, pressure, and progress are the keys to your **next level. Using David's journey to defeating Goliath, he shows that you can't walk into a new season with an old mindset. 💡 Key Takeaways: ✅ Why training and development are non-negotiable for growth ✅ How to get rid of "old wineskins" and step into a new you ✅ The connection between discipline and destiny ✅ How to perform at peak level when your opportunity of a lifetime arrives If you're tired of the same cycles and ready for transformation, this is the message you need to hear!

Winning the Battle You Can't See: Trusting God Through Tough Times Sep 22, 2024

Are you facing tough times? Maybe you're struggling with a difficult financial situation, dealing with a broken relationship, or battling an illness that feels overwhelming. In moments like these, it's easy to focus solely on your plans—what you need to do next, how you'll fix the problem, or what you can change. But there's something we often forget: the enemy also has a plan.

📖 Key Scripture: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour." – 1 Peter 5:8

In strategic warfare, we don't just think about our own moves—we anticipate what the enemy might do. The same goes for spiritual battles. While you're planning for a breakthrough in your career, the enemy might be working to plant seeds of doubt and fear. As you're rebuilding a relationship, the enemy could be whispering lies of insecurity or mistrust. When you're trying to recover from illness, he might attack your faith, making you question if God is truly with you.

But here's the truth: God's strategy is greater than the enemy's. The enemy may have a plan, but it's no match for what God has already planned for your life. That's why you must stay vigilant, pray for God's will, and shout in faith before the walls come down. Trust that God is working, even when you can't see it.

🔥 Takeaway: In every tough time, don't just focus on your own plans—stay aware that the enemy is also strategizing. But know this: God's plan always prevails. Your victory is already won.

👉 If you're feeling overwhelmed, this message is for you. Press play and be encouraged. #Faith #TrustGod #Victory

This is not just about attending services or following rituals; it's about embodying a living faith that permeates every aspect of our lives.

Join us on a journey of spiritual awakening where we learn to invest more time with the Giver than the gift, and in doing so, unlock God's boundless grace for the year ahead.
