Episode Title: A Fractured World: Why the World Needs the Church

Description:

This week’s events reminded us just how fragile our world is. From violence in schools to tragedy in our cities, we are daily confronted with fear and brokenness. But Jesus has already given His answer: the Church, shaped by the Holy Spirit to look and sound like Him.

In this Grand Opening message from Living Free Church, Pastor Ty Crowder unpacks:

• Why the world desperately needs the Church (Matthew 5:14–16; 2 Corinthians 5:17–20)
• How the Holy Spirit forms both our character and our courage (Acts 1:8; Galatians 5:22–23; 1 Corinthians 12:4–7)
• What it means to reflect Christ’s peace in our conversations (Colossians 4:6; Ephesians 4:29)
• How moving from Restoration to Living Free reflects God’s call for His people (Colossians 3:12–15)

💡 Reflection Question: What changes do you need to make in your conversations to reflect Christ’s peace?

Living Free Church is more than a new name—it’s a new calling. We’ve been restored by grace, and now we live free in Christ to shine His peace to the world.

Perfect Peace to Defeat Anxiety — Pastor Taylor Wiley

Most people don’t need THERAPY—they need COMMUNITY.

In this timely and transparent message, Pastor Taylor Wiley speaks directly to the heart of anxiety and the pathway to God’s perfect peace. Some of us need to shift from ISOLATION to INVITATION, because no one can share IN what you don’t share OUT.

If you want to defeat anxiety, you need peace.

If you want peace, you need ORDER.

And order begins with OBEDIENCE.

When all else fails, PRAYER and SUPPLICATION are the catalyst that lead to obedience and trust in the God who gives peace beyond understanding. It’s time to stop asking “Is it PROBABLE?” and start believing “Is it POSSIBLE?”

This message is more than encouragement—it’s a spiritual reset. Don’t miss it.

Podcast Episode: Filling the Gap – People of Prayer (Week 2)

Speaker: Pastor Ty Crowder

Series: People of Prayer

Location: Living Free Church – Franklin Campus

In Week 2 of our People of Prayer series, Pastor Ty Crowder delivers a compelling message on Intercessory Prayer,  and what it means to stand in the gap for others before God.

From Matthew 6:5–6, we learn how intercession is birthed in the secret place. In Luke 5:15–16, we see how Jesus withdrew to pray before ministering to the crowds. In John 17:9, 20–21, Jesus prays for His disciples and future believers, showing us how intercession shapes unity and protection. And in Luke 22:31-32, we watch Jesus pray for Peter’s faith before his failure.

Along the way, you’ll hear inspiring stories from prayer warriors in history like Rees Howells, Susanna Wesley, Hudson Taylor, Jonathan Edwards, and Corrie ten Boom — each demonstrating the power of standing in the gap.

Whether you’ve been praying for someone for years or you’re just starting, this message will challenge and inspire you to pray faithfully, persistently, and selflessly for others.
