The Ghost of Christmas Past

The Ghost of Christmas Past

Pastor Jack explores the theme of hope in the midst of trials, drawing from the Old Testament prophecies of the coming Messiah. He teaches that in seasons of difficulty, God speaks promises that seem impossible?like a virgin conceiving or a branch springing from a stump?to sustain His people through darkness. Pastor Jack emphasizes that just as the Holy Spirit gave Israel hope through prophecies of Emmanuel and the Branch, believers today can stand firm in trials by declaring the name of Jesus.
Genesis 25-30

Genesis 25-30

Pastor Jack teaches through Genesis chapters 25-30, exploring the lives of Isaac, Jacob, and Esau. He examines how God's covenant promises require faith and prayer to possess, the sovereignty of God in human affairs, and how God works through imperfect people who trust Him. Pastor Jack emphasizes that while these patriarchs had flawed character and operated in a time of limited revelation, God honored their heart attitude toward Him and faithfulness to His invisible promises.
How to Draw Near to God

How to Draw Near to God

Pastor Jack teaches on seven biblical principles for drawing near to God, using James 4:1-10 as his anchor passage. Against the backdrop of life's struggles?striving, unanswered prayer, and worldliness?he explores practical ways to experience intimacy with God. Pastor Jack emphasizes that these aren't sequential steps but different means of approach, including praise and thanksgiving, earnest request, cleansing through the blood of Christ, and quietness of soul, reminding listeners that when we draw near to God, He promises to draw near to us.
Quick and Certain Justice Through Prayer

Quick and Certain Justice Through Prayer

Pastor Jack draws from Luke 18 to teach on the nature of persistent, faith-filled prayer and the promise of quick and certain justice from God. Through the parable of the unjust judge and the widow, he contrasts the sluggish, selfish judge with the righteous, responsive Heavenly Father who speedily avenges His people. Pastor Jack challenges believers to lift their faces toward God in prayer whenever injustice arises, trusting that He?unlike the unjust judge?is fully committed to His elect and will bring about righteousness through their intercession.
The Economics of the Kingdom: The Principle

The Economics of the Kingdom: The Principle

Pastor Jack draws from Malachi and the teaching of Jesus to address the often-avoided subject of tithing and giving. Convicted by the Lord to teach what God's people need to hear, he explains that the structure of the physical realm is such that disobedience in the spiritual realm disrupts it?and that tithing is a principle woven into the fabric of creation. Pastor Jack emphasizes that God's commands are not grievous but protective, and that learning to give opens us to the abundance God longs to release.
