In his last sermon at First Baptist Church of Cape Girardeau, Tyler says good bye.

First Baptist Church of Cape Girardeau : The Podcast

Thank You (Philippians 1:1-11)

In this sermon, Tyler explores the struggle of understanding just how to tackle "what comes next".  Perhaps we feel lost in life, unsure of our place or what good we can do.  The model of good--we continue to discover--has already been laid out for us in Christ.  Work together in His name, and see what blessings we can bring to the world.

Work Together For Good (Romans 8:28-30)

In this sermon, Tyler discusses the role of a nameless slave girl in a powerful general's life.  Though this general had power and prestige, he was also trapped in a situation he had no knowledge of how to navigate out of.  It was by listening to the sideline voice in his life that he was able to find healing and restoration.What voices are we not hearing in our own life?  What is God trying to tell us through them?

Sideline Voices (2 Kings 5.1-17)

In this sermon, Tyler continues through the Revised Common Lectionary.As we observe the ascent of Elijah we must also come to terms with change in our own lives.  There are times in our life where we are separated from the people close to us.  Though it can be difficult--sometimes even painful--we must also look to God's guidance and see the new direction we are headed.There is always room for hope amidst the change.

Crossing Over (2 Kings 2:1-14)

In this special sermon brought to us by Dr. Jeff Long, we examine the ways God uses events in our lives to shape the church and it's people.  Though things may seem distressing, our shepherd watches over us, guiding us to where we are called to be.Have strength.  Have courage.

Strong and Courageous (Joshua 1:1-9)

In this Pentecost sermon, Pastor Tyler explores the coming of the Holy Spirit to the apostles. He points out how the Spirit got them outside of what was comfortable to them and put them in the midst of their community. That same Spirit is available to us and is the only hope for the future of the church.

A Spirit-Filled Resurrection Church (Acts 2:1-21)

Practicing Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15.50-58)

As Pastor Tyler continues the "Resurrection" series, we explore the beautiful, transformative power of Resurrection.  At the very core of the Resurrection is hope.  It is within this hope that we are asked to become a changed people, a people with the knowledge of what is and what will be.  We too, are promised transformation: both in this life and the next.

Transforming Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:35-49)

 In this sermon, Pastor Tyler explores how Paul wants the Corinthian church to understand that the resurrection serves as the reason for both ministry and missions. Tyler is then joined by Becky Gentry, Laura Meece, and Ron Winstead as they share about how the resurrection fuels them for the kingdom-work they are doing. 

Living Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:29-34)

As we continue to explore the bizarre beauty of the resurrection, we are challenged to recognize just what exactly our identity as Christians truly is. We are a people who stand totally exposed before evil and death. We declare them powerless against love and hope. We have a message to share with the world; the unending love and power of Christ has defeated all evil that stands against us. Even death, the final enemy, has no say any longer. 

Victorious Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:20-28)

This message is a part of our series called Practice Resurrection. In this sermon, Pastor Tyler Tankersley explores why there are some people in the Corinthian church who might be denying the resurrection of Jesus Christ.He argues that they are in fact threatened by the very idea of resurrection. And he wonders if we too are sometimes threatened by resurrection.

Threatened by Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:12-19)

 As we explore the aftermath of Christ's resurrection, we see schools of thought try to downplay or explain away the miracle that the Christian faith hinges upon.Paul writes the truth; truly Christ died for our sins, was buried, and was raised.This Gospel propels us forward and changes our story for the better.We worship a risen Christ, how could we ever possibly be the same? 

Experiencing Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15: 1-11)

As we explore the story of the resurrection, we find confusion and hope.  We read an ending that isn't quite an ending, and yet perhaps God is calling us to continue the new story he wrote those thousands of years ago.This is the heart of the Gospel.  Christ has risen, and now we must tell the world just how wonderful that truly means.

The First Day of a New Week (Mark 16:1-8)

This Sunday before Easter, we observe the crucifixion.  The crucifixion of Christ is painful to read, it hangs heavy in our hearts as we contemplate the painful torture and death of our savior.  Yet--at the very center of this story--we see love unparalleled by anything else.
