He was converted at a Methodist revival meeting.
He and his wife, Jennie Shirk, were actively involved in the Brethren in Christ Church. They together began an evangelistic work in Illinois and Iowa over the next two years. In 1890 they felt that God was calling them to the Pacific coast. They opened an evangelistic mission in San Diego and also worked in Los Angeles and held tent meetings up the coast. In 1893 Byers wrote a book, the "The Grace of Healing" to describe his conversion.
Byers taught divine healing for the body as well as the soul and published a magazine called "Tidings of Healing". In 1899 he published a book on the subject called "The Grace of Healing".
