The Mountain Top Experience Podcast - Ep. 25 - From Gridiron to Glory: The Barry Perez Story

Episode Description: On this episode of The Mountain Top Experience Podcast, hosts Kevin, Carlos, and Dave sit down with rapper, musician, preacher, and youth pastor Jay Thomas. An independent Christian hip-hop artist from York, Pennsylvania, Jay has built a reputation for his dynamic sound that fuses raw street energy with powerful messages of faith, hope, and victory in Christ.

Together, the group dives into Jay's story—how faith pulled him from destructive paths, shaped his music, and fuels his ministry. Jay shares about his singles like "Amen" and "Victory," his work with artists such as Shakayla Mitchell and 4TK, and his passion for building up his community.

A recurring theme throughout this conversation is the reminder that faith is not passive—faith is an action word. From stepping into new opportunities, to trusting God in uncertainty, to using his platform to uplift others, Jay embodies a faith that moves.

Whether you're a hip-hop fan, a believer seeking encouragement, or someone wrestling with how to live out your faith in the real world, this episode will inspire you to put belief into motion.
