In this message, Pastor Jack explores how God sometimes alters our plans and circumstances in ways we don’t understand at the time. Drawing from his experience of having his wife’s purse stolen while traveling in Beirut, and examining Jesus’ interaction with his brothers in John 7, Pastor Jack reveals five principles explaining why God adjusts details in our lives: for our safety, to teach us to wait on His timing, to focus us on becoming rather than doing, to move us from chronological time to God’s perfect timing (kairos), and ultimately to bring His purposes to fulfillment.
