In 2016 we are raising a banner for freedom. Jehova Nissi means “The Lord my Banner,” hoisted in times of great victory (Exodus 17:15-16). Because the Lord is our Banner,victory is always certain. As long as we are lifting Him up, it is under His presence and power that we are made strong and able to advance.
Unity and strength come to a nation as women step into place without entitlement, bitterness, manipulation, insecurity, malice or pride. Health and wholeness come when a woman links arms with those around her. The cries of the poor, abused and disenfranchised are heard and their needs are met.
When a banner is raised in times of war, it means the front line is still intact and taking ground. When we raise our collective banner, we encourage others to fight for freedom in their personal lives and spheres of influence. It’s time to raise the banner for freedom and stake our claim under God.
We are free to set others free. Let’s fight from a position of victory.
Lead Pastor of Liberty Church & Host of She is Free
We are so happy that Lisa Bevere will be speaking to each of our communities next Sunday. Lisa is a candid speaker and author who is as profound and powerful as she is funny. In her messages and her books, she always draws deeply from her own life and the truth of the Word of God. She will be pouring her wisdom into our women at this week’s sold-out She is Free Conference. But on Sunday, April 26th, you have the opportunity to hear her speak at our services in Brooklyn (9:30am), Soho (11:00am), and Union Square (5:00pm and 7:00pm).
Lisa has written many bestselling books, including The Story of Marriage, Lioness Arising, Fight Like a Girl, Nurture, and Out of Control and Loving it. In 1990, Lisa and her husband John Bevere founded Messenger International, an organization established to teach, reach, and rescue. In over two decades of ministry, their messages have reached millions worldwide and transformed lives. Recognized globally for their boldness and passion for the Lord, John and Lisa have a heart to see believers not only know the Word but also walk in the fullness of its power.
Join us in welcoming Lisa Bevere to Liberty Church this coming Sunday.
Welcome to Liberty! Here are some ways you can get involved.

She is Free is committed to helping women rediscover femininity, and experience true freedom—spirit, soul and body. At the She is Free Conference, April 23–25, in New York City, women will be changed from the inside out and empowered to administer freedom in their sphere of influence.Last year, Andi Andrew announced the She is Free conference to the women of Liberty Sisterhood, and in less than one week from now, we will gather at Gramercy Theater to extend the gift of freedom. Please pray over the upcoming week as women make their way to New York for a life-changing weekend.
The heart of the She is Free conference is to facilitate freedom in the individual lives of women through prayer and worship and to empower them to give that freedom away in their own spheres of influence. In addition to Andi Andrew, the women will hear from other phenomenal speakers:
There will be two breakout sessions offered.
We will also have women sharing their stories of freedom and a guest panel of women speaking “For Freedom,” on how they bring freedom in their world and how to get on board. The panel includes Caitlyn Crosby of The Giving Keys, Stella Reed of the Dream Center, Pastor Kristin Lipscomb, Rebecca Deng, and Emily Kirkendoll.
So many surprises await our She is Free guests, and we’re so excited for them to be spoiled by our sponsors: The Bosco, Red Carpet Manicure, The Giving Keys, and Greater Than Love Bakery.
We’re thrilled to be hosting this sold-out event and we would love for you to join us in praying for breakthroughs and freedom for every woman who comes.

At our Good Friday and Easter Sunday services, we opened a message series on the person of Jesus, called “Jesus Is…” Paul Andrew shared that Jesus was a “funeral crasher” who all through his ministry and leading up to his resurrection, defied death by bringing life everywhere he went. “Many of the circumstances around Jesus’ birth, death, life and resurrection were confirmations of centuries-old prophecies,” says Paul. Yet his identity and his personality are still revolutionary today.
In light of all that has been said about him, Jesus asked the disciples he called to follow him to have a personal revelation of him. “‘But what about you?’ he asked. ‘Who do you say that I am?'” (Mark 8:29). Out of a personal revelation of who he is, anyone can have a relationship with him and understand why his way and his truth and his life are so important in our lives.
Through this series, we can address some of our ideas and misconceptions about who Jesus is. I asked people in our church to share things they used to think about Jesus.
What’s something you used to think about Jesus?
“You mean the hippy-looking geezer with a beard? I used to think of him as a judge with a wig and gown.”—Tim
“I used to think Jesus was frail. And pious.” —Heath
“I used to think Jesus was born on December 25th. And that he was resentful about Santa stealing his birthday.”
“I used to think if I didn’t pray for awhile I’d have to apologize.” —Trisha
“I used to think he was like a Santa Claus. And you didn’t want to be on his bad list, because Jesus could see you and get you. It’s also easy to think of Jesus as victim in the whole crucifixion game. You see the pain that he goes through, but it doesn’t make sense to see it as a victory. You know that he paid the price, but you think of it as something that happened to him when really it was a conquering move. —Matt
“The first thing was that he was skinny. I remember the Stations of the Cross, and you could always see his ribs. But he must have been pretty tough to go through what he went through. My dad always told me that he wasn’t white, and I couldn’t understand that. In every picture I saw, he was blonde, with a lamb as a pet.”—Kristen
“I used to think if I was in a crowd that Jesus wouldn’t see me. But now I know that he would look straight at me. I used to think he was too important. I also used to think he was a very sad person, that we made him sad.”—Mavis
“I prayed the Lord’s Prayer forever. I always felt guilty taking communion, then after I took it I would feel better. When I talk about Jesus, people are often surprised by Jesus’ kindness. I’ve had guys at work that think I’m the only one that keeps them sane, because they don’t expect that Jesus is kind.” —Bob
“I used to think Jesus was too intense for me. Because I’m not an intense person. I always saw him as distant, more distant than God the Father, who sort of looks after you. But now the relational aspects of him are more highlighted.”—Jen
“That’s funny. I thought the opposite. I couldn’t relate to God the Father at all. To me, Jesus was the personal one who knew me. If it wasn’t for Jesus I couldn’t understand God.”—Donna
“I used to think Jesus was vindictive—that if you loved someone or something more than Jesus, God would take it away.”
“I used to think he was really nice, and that’s it. I used to think he kind of cheated the system. He was perfect, but also God. How do I follow that? That’s ridiculous. I used to think he didn’t really know what was going on in the 21st Century. I thought he was very spiritual, but not very smart.”—Parker
“I used to think he was superhuman. He wasn’t really human like me at all. I didn’t realize he was God and he was limited by his humanity, but because he chose to be.”—Daria
“God the Father was a gift giver, like Santa, that I could ask things from and hope to get it. Jesus was there for the emotional stuff like a therapist, because he had been like me and knew what I was going through. The Holy Spirit was like my sassy friend who always set me right.”—Chelsea
“When I was little, I didn’t have a concept of Jesus. I thought if the moon was a crescent, it was God’s fingernail. I thought he was just so big. With Jesus, I just thought of the guy on the cross. It was a hard concept to think about my sins being washed away. I’d think, ‘What if tomorrow I sin again?’ I couldn’t understand that I had a clean slate. And he did that for me.” —Dee
