Finishing Your Race - Tyler Moon

Finishing Your Race - Tyler Moon

Tyler Moon was running his first 10 mile race on October 19, 2019 in the Twin Cities 10 Miler.  Shortly after logging the first mile, Tyler collapsed from heart attack…

Two years later, he was back, lined up to complete the race that nearly killed him. He not only finished the race, he started his own ministry called “Moon Family Ministries.”

His story is one that will definitely inspire you to not let the devil keep you down. Amen!

Now, other than that brief information I just shared, tell us in your own words, “Who is Tyler Moon?”

Tyler, take us back to that day, October 19, 2019.  Have you had any heart related issues prior to that date?

Were you married at that time? October 2019?

I’ve read where you only remember the first mile of the race. How far did you actually run before collapsing?

You do not remember having chest pains or anything during the race?

Were you born again on that day?

From simply running the race to – what? What is the first thing your remember after the first mile of the race?

Was your family at the race on that day?

What was the diagnosis (and can you explain it in layman’s terms)?

Did they do any surgeries or medical procedures to fix what was wrong?

What kind of physical therapy did they put you through and how soon did you have the dream of returning to running?

What did your doctors say to that idea?

How long did you train before entering your first race – post event?

You did the 10 mile race with, Jesse (Jesus), one of the people who performed CPR on you, correct?

The two of you have become fairly good friends, right?

Was there some kind of testing or medical testing you could have taken that would have found this medical issue before that day in October 2019?

Obviously, you’ve probably given your testimony “a few times” over the years. Have you been doing any public speaking on what happened, like TEDx talks or anything like that?

You’ve started “Moon Family Ministries,” in response, obviously, because the Lord is leading you to do so, not so much in response to your story of what happened. You are also in the “young adult ministry.” Is this in and through your local church?  Tell us about that…

Tyler, this has been so interesting. If someone has a question or would like to find out more information, or possibly do an interview such as this… How can they do that? How can they get in touch with you?

I’ll put links to that in the show notes below.

Folks, this is a very serious issue. I’ve been witness to two young men die, while running, with this same issue. Both were while I was in the military, way back in the 1980’s. Technology was not as good back then as it is now. But, Tyler is an example, this is still prevalent, even today.

I urge you, if you feel anything at all is not “normal,” get checked out – especially before any taxing event on your body and heart.

Next, the most important thing, is knowing Jesus is your Savior. There is no guarantee for tomorrow. There is no guarantee for the next hour or the next five minutes. What is guaranteed, is that “it is appointed unto every man once to die – then the judgement.” That’s it! You need to make sure that Jesus is your Lord BEFORE something happens!

Imagine if Tyler would not have been born again and thought, “I’ll just wait until Sunday to make Jesus the Lord of my life.” The race was on SATURDAY, folks!  If he would not have been born again and those people that helped him by performing CPR and keeping him alive until the medics arrived and all that happened after that – he would be suffering eternally right now!

Good intentions don’t do it. You need Jesus. If you have not received Him as your Savior, I urge you to do so right now!

Tyler Moon leads you in a prayer of salvation…

Folks, if you prayed that prayer with Tyler Moon right now, contact him! Drop down into the show notes, click the link and let him know! Praise God!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
