Niki Tyler, now the wife of a respected minister of the Gospel, was once a young woman with a lot of shattered hopes and dreams. Exposed to the destructive patterns of divorce, alcohol, drugs and abuse from the time she was born, she finally came to the decision that if there was nothing more to life than what she had seen, that she just didn’t want to participate anymore. When suicide seemed to be the only way out, God showed Niki a better way… through living a life committed to Jesus Christ. Now almost 10 years later, Niki’s life is a testimony to the transforming power of Jesus Christ. She has changed from someone broken, confused and alone, to a woman filled with power and purpose. Niki has learned that with Jesus as her Lord, life is not only worth living, but it’s something to look forward to! Niki has served faithfully as a founding member of Revival Fires Fellowship for over 9 years, working in various areas of children’s ministry and aiding her leaders wherever else they needed her help. Niki is a 2000 graduate of Kutztown University and a 2004 graduate of Revival Fires Bible Training Center. She continues to be a student of the Word of God who has a heart to teach others what God is teaching her. She has been a Bible School instructor at R.F.B.T.C. since her graduation, and lives with her husband Rich Tyler, and their children, in Allentown, PA.
