A Wise Father?  Advice

A Wise Father? Advice

Pastor Jack draws from Joshua's charge to the people of Israel, calling fathers? and all believers? to make a decisive commitment: "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." He shares a personal story of how his own father returned to the Lord in 1948 and placed a plaque with this verse in their living room, a commitment that shaped Jack's entire family. Pastor Jack challenges men to write their commitment on paper and raise a physical stone as a monument to their decision, urging the congregation to reject the gods of heredity, captivity, and society, and instead incline their hearts toward the living God.
The God Who Makes All Things Whole

The God Who Makes All Things Whole

Pastor Jack officiates the wedding of Art Jones and Lee Murray, two individuals who had both been through divorce and found healing in Christ. Through their testimony shared via media presentation, Pastor Jack explores how God's redemptive power can restore broken lives and make room for wholeness, even in situations where past failures and divorce have occurred. He challenges traditional church positions on remarriage, emphasizing that Jesus came to heal and restore, not to condemn those who have been broken by life's circumstances.

What in Heaven? Name Can a Woman Do?

In this message, Pastor Jack explores controversial passages about women in the church, particularly 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and 1 Timothy 2:11-12. Through careful examination of the original Greek text and biblical context, Pastor Jack teaches that women have full access to all ministry offices except apostle, challenging common misconceptions while emphasizing God's order of authority. He demonstrates that the "silence" commanded refers to appropriate speech timing rather than absolute prohibition, and shows biblical evidence for women serving as pastors, teachers, evangelists, and prophets.
Arising to Possess the Land

Arising to Possess the Land

Pastor Jack draws from the opening chapter of Joshua to launch a series on possessing the land God has promised. In this foundational message, he teaches that just as Joshua led Israel to conquer and possess their inheritance, Jesus? our true Joshua? leads believers into ongoing victory and conquest in their personal lives and as a congregation. Pastor Jack calls the church to take a stance, to arise from passivity and move forward into all that God has ordained, emphasizing that wherever the sole of our feet tread, God has already given it to us.

He emphasizes that biblical headship is not about suppression but protection, leadership, and release.
