Taking Inventory on His Name

Taking Inventory on His Name

Pastor Jack draws from the closing chapters of Malachi to encourage a spirit of gratitude rooted not in circumstances, but in who God is. He highlights a remnant who "thought upon His name"—taking inventory of God's redemptive character revealed through names like Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Rapha, and Jehovah Shalom—and shows how each finds its fulfillment in Jesus. In a season marked by thanksgiving, Pastor Jack calls believers to count their blessings in Christ and speak often to one another about His faithfulness.
The Husband-Wife Relationship, 1973

The Husband-Wife Relationship, 1973

Pastor Jack draws from Ephesians 5 to explore the husband-wife relationship as a reflection of Christ's commitment to the church. He emphasizes that husbands bear the full responsibility for the success of their marriage, just as Christ pours Himself out for His bride, and challenges men to learn from Jesus' example of sacrificial love, patience, and understanding. Pastor Jack also addresses the broader issues of marriage, divorce, and God's unchanging commitment to His people.
The Purpose of Fasting

The Purpose of Fasting

Pastor Jack draws from Isaiah 58 to teach on the spiritual discipline of fasting, calling the congregation to a week-long corporate fast beginning the next day. He outlines four biblical purposes for fasting: receiving divine direction, preparing for spiritual battle, enabling deliverance and miracles, and breaking regional spiritual bondage. Pastor Jack emphasizes that fasting is not earning God's favor, but humbling oneself to seek His face and prepare for greater spiritual authority and ministry expansion.
Rebuilding the Walls of the Redeemed Personality, Nehemiah #1

Rebuilding the Walls of the Redeemed Personality, Nehemiah #1

Pastor Jack draws from the book of Nehemiah to illustrate how the Holy Spirit comes to rebuild the broken areas of the redeemed believer's life. Using the historical account of Nehemiah returning to Jerusalem to rebuild its walls, Pastor Jack shows how the temple represents our reborn spirit, the city our soul, and the walls our defense against the enemy. He teaches that just as the temple was restored but the walls remained broken down, many believers are saved and Spirit-filled but still carry emotional wounds and broken defenses from their past that leave them vulnerable to spiritual attack.
The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error, Pt. 6

The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error, Pt. 6

Pastor Jack concludes his series "The Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error" by examining what the Bible says about astrology, divination, and other occult practices. Drawing from Romans 6 and multiple Old Testament passages, he warns believers to avoid dabbling in spiritual darkness—not as a legalistic requirement for salvation, but as wisdom for walking in freedom. Pastor Jack emphasizes that both God and Satan seek physical expression through human bodies, and believers must yield themselves to the Spirit of truth rather than error.
