A Letter to a People on the Way, Pt. 2, Romans #2

A Letter to a People on the Way, Pt. 2, Romans #2

Pastor Jack teaches from Romans chapter 1 in this second message from his series on Romans. He explains that Paul's objective in writing Romans was not merely to present doctrine, but to help believers enter into the ministry God has for them as saints. Drawing from Paul's stated purpose of imparting spiritual gifts and establishing the Roman church in ministry, Pastor Jack unpacks how every believer is called to function as a ministering member of the body of Christ, with unique abilities genetically inherited in the spiritual realm through new birth.
The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error, Pt. 5

The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error, Pt. 5

Pastor Jack draws from Deuteronomy 18 and 1 Samuel 28 to expose the dangers of occult practices and familiar spirits in a generation increasingly drawn to darkness. He unpacks the story of Saul and the witch of Endor, explaining why believers must completely avoid necromancy, divination, witchcraft, and all forms of spiritual dabbling—not out of superstitious fear, but out of obedience to God. Pastor Jack calls the church to walk in the light of the Holy Spirit, stay grounded in Scripture, and recognize that true spiritual contact comes only through Jesus Christ and the Spirit of truth.
A Letter to a People on the Way, Pt. 1, Romans #1

A Letter to a People on the Way, Pt. 1, Romans #1

Pastor Jack introduces a year-long study through the Book of Romans, inviting the congregation to see it not as a heavy theological burden but as a personal letter from the Holy Spirit to believers on their journey. He emphasizes that the gospel originates entirely from God—its source, authority, and power all flow from Him—and that the epistle aims not only to establish believers in their relationship with God but also to mature them in ministry. Pastor Jack draws parallels between the Roman church and the Church on the Way, encouraging the congregation to be established in both message and ministry through the study ahead.
Body Ministry: A Need to Exercise

Body Ministry: A Need to Exercise

Pastor Jack teaches from 1 Corinthians 12 on the ministry of the body of Christ, emphasizing that every member has a God-given ministry. He explains how the entire Godhead cooperates in equipping believers: the Father gives grace and faith for ministry, Jesus gives leadership gifts to develop the body, and the Holy Spirit gives gifts to empower each person's calling. Pastor Jack warns against the error of the Nicolaitans—creating a hierarchy that divides clergy from laity—and challenges believers to discover and exercise their individual ministries within the local church.
The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error, Pt. 4

The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error, Pt. 4

In this message, Pastor Jack explores the sources of truth through which God has revealed Himself to mankind. He teaches that truth is manifested in three ways: through creation, through the person of Jesus Christ, and through Scripture. Pastor Jack contrasts the spirit of truth with the spirit of error, emphasizing that Satan seeks to manifest himself through tangible objects and human lives, while God desires to dwell in His people through the Holy Spirit.
