  1. Stay Plugged In — Pastor Tim Brannon

    Stay Plugged In — Pastor Tim Brannon

    At Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came exactly as Jesus promised. The Church was born, fearful disciples became bold witnesses, and the gospel began spreading throughout the world. But Pentecost was never intended to be merely an event we celebrate—it was intended to be a lifestyle we live. In this message, Pastor Tim Brannon explores a powerful truth found in Acts 2 and Acts 4: the same disciples who were filled with the Holy Spirit at Pentecost were filled again when they faced opposition and new challenges. Why? Because God never intended His people to live on yesterday’s encounter. The Christian life is lived through continual dependence upon the Holy Spirit. Pentecost was not the finish line—it was the starting line. The same Spirit who filled the Upper Room still fills surrendered believers today. Stay connected. Stay empowered. Stay on mission. Scriptures: Acts 2:4, Acts 4:8, Acts 4:23-31, John 15:4-5, Ephesians 5:18, Zechariah 4:6, Acts 1:8 Liberty City Methodist Church | May 31, 2026

    Power Up — Pastor Tim Brannon

    Many believers celebrate Christmas and Easter as the defining moments of the Christian faith. But what if the story doesn’t end at the empty tomb? In this Pentecost message, POWER UP, Pastor Tim Brannon explores why the resurrection was never meant to be the final destination of redemption—it was the doorway into a Spirit-empowered life. Through Acts 1–2, we discover that Jesus instructed His disciples to wait, not because they lacked knowledge, but because they lacked power. Using powerful illustrations, biblical teaching, and historical examples from the Moravian revival, John Wesley, and the Welsh Revival, this message reveals the life-changing difference the Holy Spirit makes in ordinary people. Peter’s transformation from fearful denier to fearless preacher reminds us that God’s mission is never accomplished through human effort alone—it requires the power of God’s Spirit. Whether you feel spiritually stalled, weary, or hungry for more of God, this message will challenge and encourage you to move beyond simply admiring salvation and begin living in the fullness of the Spirit’s power. Join us as we discover what it means to POWER UP and become Spirit-filled witnesses in our homes, communities, and throughout the world.

  3. The In-Between — Pastor Tim Brannon

    The In-Between — Pastor Tim Brannon

    What do you do when God has given a promise… but the fulfillment hasn’t arrived yet? In this Ascension Sunday message, Pastor Tim Brannon explores the sacred space between resurrection and Pentecost—the “in-between” season where the disciples were called not to strive, but to wait upon the Lord. Drawing from Luke 24 and Acts 1, this message speaks directly to anyone living between prayer and breakthrough, calling and commissioning, promise and fulfillment. In a culture that demands immediate results, Jesus teaches His disciples something countercultural and deeply spiritual: sometimes the assignment is simply to stay, trust, pray, and position yourself for what only heaven can send. This message reminds us: • The in-between is often the immediate destination • The in-between reveals who we really trust • The in-between is where God prepares us for power If you’ve been weary in the waiting, discouraged by delay, or tempted to force doors open ahead of God’s timing, this message will encourage you to trust that silence is not absence—and that God is still working in the waiting.

  4. How Far Will You Go? — Pastor Tim Brannon

    How Far Will You Go? — Pastor Tim Brannon

    In this message, Pastor Tim Brannon takes us to John 6:66–69, where the crowd that once followed Jesus in awe of His miracles begins to walk away when His teaching becomes difficult to accept. Thousands who had seen the bread multiplied and the sick healed are now faced with a decision: stay with Jesus when it costs something—or turn back. At the center of this message is a piercing question: How far will you go in your pursuit of Christ? Through Scripture, real-life illustrations, and a sobering look at Israel’s journey in the wilderness, Pastor Tim challenges believers to move beyond convenience and comfort into a deeper, surrendered relationship with Jesus. Salvation is not just a moment of decision—it is a lifelong call to discipleship, transformation, and pursuit. This message confronts complacency and calls the Church to rediscover the fullness of life found in Christ here and now—not just the hope of eternity later. Jesus did not just pay for partial devotion; He gave everything for our complete surrender. Whether you are questioning your faith, feeling stagnant in your walk with God, or hungry for more, this episode invites you to examine your limits—and consider what it truly means to follow Jesus all the way.

    All In — Pastor Tim Brannon

    What does it really mean to be all in? In this throwback message from May 11, 2025, Pastor Tim Brannon challenges us to move beyond casual Christianity into a life of complete surrender. Drawing from Jesus’ words in Matthew 16:24–25, this sermon confronts the tension between holding on and letting go—between saving your life and truly finding it. Through compelling stories—from the relentless pursuit of innovation by Thomas Edison to the radical, no-retreat mindset of Alexander the Great and Hernán Cortés—this message builds a vivid picture of what total commitment looks like. But the heart of the message goes deeper: Jesus isn’t calling for admiration or convenience—He’s calling for surrender. Why do we follow Him? Is it for what He can do for us, or because of who He is? Exploring moments like the feeding of the 5,000, the response of the disciples in John 6, and the sobering account of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 4–5, Pastor Tim exposes the danger of half-hearted devotion and the illusion of being “all in” while still holding back. This sermon draws a clear line between commitment and surrender—reminding us that while commitment keeps us in control, surrender gives everything over to God. Echoing the words of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, “When Christ calls a man, He bids him come and die,” this message invites listeners to lay down their lives in order to truly live. This isn’t just a message—it’s a call to examine your heart. Are there areas you’re still holding back? Have you “burned the ships”? Are you truly all in? Discover the freedom, purpose, and power that come from full surrender—and step into the life you were created to live. All in. No retreat. No halfway.

  6. I Will Be Confident (Ain’t Nothing Gonna Back Me Down)

    I Will Be Confident (Ain’t Nothing Gonna Back Me Down)

    What does real, unshakable confidence actually look like? In this powerful message, “I WILL BE CONFIDENT (Ain’t Nothing Gonna Back Me Down)”, Pastor Tim Brannon challenges the difference between talking about faith and living it—especially when life gets hard. Rooted in Romans 8:28–31, this sermon declares a bold truth: confidence isn’t based on circumstances—it’s anchored in who God is and what He has already done. From Paul’s unshakable conviction to the fiery stand of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, this message reveals a kind of faith that doesn’t compromise under pressure, doesn’t bow to fear, and doesn’t back down—even when the outcome is uncertain. This isn’t confidence built on comfort. It’s confidence proven in confrontation. If you’ve ever felt your faith shake under pressure… If you’ve been trying to follow Jesus with a divided heart… If you’re ready to move from hesitation to bold declaration… This message will call you higher. It’s time to cut out compromise, settle your identity in Christ, and step into a life fully surrendered to Him. Because when you know who you believe, and you’re convinced He is faithful— you can stand firm and say with confidence: “AIN’T NOTHING GONNA BACK ME DOWN.” 🎙️ Liberty City Methodist Church | April 19, 2026

    Hungering For More - Pastor Tim Brannon

    What are you really hungry for? In this message from Liberty City Methodist Church, Pastor Tim Brannon challenges us to look beyond surface-level faith and ask a deeper question: Are we seeking Jesus for what He can do—or for who He is? Drawing from John 6:26–36, this sermon explores the tension between temporary satisfaction and eternal fulfillment. Just like the crowd that followed Jesus for bread, we can find ourselves pursuing Him for what meets immediate needs while missing the greater invitation—to know Him as the Bread of Life. This message also unpacks the purpose of Jesus’ parables, revealing how they both uncover truth for the hungry heart and conceal it from the complacent. The difference isn’t in the message—it’s in our response. If you’ve ever felt spiritually stagnant, comfortable, or curious about going deeper in your faith, this episode is an invitation: Are you content with hearing… or are you willing to pursue more? “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7–8) Lean in. There is more. Liberty City Methodist Church - April 12, 2026

    The Risen King (Resurrection Sunday)

    Celebrate Resurrection Sunday with this powerful message, The Risen King, from Liberty City Methodist Church, as Pastor Tim Brannon walks through the breathtaking account of the empty tomb in Gospel of Matthew 28:1–10. This message captures the emotional journey of Holy Week—the soaring expectations of Palm Sunday, the crushing disappointment of the cross, and the heavy silence of Saturday. In those moments when hope feels buried and God seems silent, we are reminded of a life-changing truth: just because it looks over doesn’t mean God is finished. Through Scripture and compelling teaching, Pastor Tim reveals how what appeared to be defeat was actually God’s greatest victory. The resurrection of Jesus is not just a historical event—it is a present reality. The Risen King has defeated sin, conquered death, and now invites us to live in the power of that victory. If you’ve ever wrestled with disappointment, doubt, or the silence of unanswered prayers, this message will meet you there—and lead you to the hope found in the risen Christ. The tomb is empty. The King is alive. And His victory… is now your reality. Liberty City Methodist Church – Resurrection Sunday | April 5, 2026
