our story

A Ministry Built for the Work of the Kingdom

Jesus Makes the Difference was founded by Apostle Nathan R. Byrd in 1986 as an evangelistic ministry with a passion for reaching souls throughout the New York City metropolitan area.

What began as a ministry of energetic, Spirit-filled young believers committed to Kingdom work would grow into a broader apostolic assignment.

What We Believe.

Our faith is rooted in the revelation of YHWH, His redemptive work through Jesus, and the abiding presence and power of the Holy Spirit. These foundational truths shape our worship, our teaching, and our Kingdom assignment.
01

YHWH

YHWH is the Creator and Sustainer of all that exists. He is the Author of the Book of the Covenant. He is love and desires intimate fellowship with His creation through worship and relationship.

02

JESUS

Jesus, the eternal Son of God, is the physical manifestation of YHWH, sent to the earth to redeem mankind from the fall of Adam. His life, death, burial, and resurrection are the only propitiation for the sins of all mankind.

03

HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Spirit is the third representation of YHWH, sent to be the internal witness within the believer of all that Jesus taught and did. He empowers the Church to fulfill its Kingdom mandate.
