Learning to Walk in the Dark

Learning to Walk in the Dark

Pastor Jack draws from the life of Abraham in Genesis 15 to explore what happens when God leads believers into deeper understanding through seasons of darkness and uncertainty. He teaches that God often allows periods where we can't see how His promises will unfold—not to abandon us, but to deepen our trust and reveal more of His character. Through Abraham's experience of sacrifice, spiritual attack, and a "horror of great darkness," Pastor Jack shows that settled faith in God's word—even when nothing seems to be happening—becomes the very power that guarantees transformation.

Testimony of Learning Obedience (Pastor Jack Hayford’s personal testimony)

On the occasion of his 39th birthday, Pastor Jack shares his personal testimony for the first time in 18 years of ministry, tracing God's faithfulness from childhood miracles through to the founding of The Church on the Way. He recounts how the Lord healed him as an infant from a birth injury and from polio at age two, called him to ministry at age eight, and taught him through years of learning obedience to surrender position and trust God's vision. Pastor Jack concludes by encouraging the congregation that the same principles of obedience, brokenness, and faith that shaped his life can work in theirs as they embrace God's vision for the church as a ministering body.
New Testament Giving

New Testament Giving

In this message, Pastor Jack explores the biblical principles of New Testament giving, demonstrating that tithing remains foundational—not as legalistic obligation, but as a platform for entering the measureless freedom and joy of giving out of God's abundant provision. He teaches from Acts 2 and Luke 12, showing how God invites believers to move beyond the basic tithe into generous offerings that flow from hearts transformed by grace. Pastor Jack emphasizes that we cannot out-give God, and that learning to give liberally opens the floodgates of His bounty toward us.
I Wish You a Mary Christmas

I Wish You a Mary Christmas

Drawing from the story of Mary in Luke chapter 1, Pastor Jack teaches about God's power to bring life into the barren and impossible places of our lives. Through Mary's virgin conception, Pastor Jack reveals how the Holy Spirit can penetrate the "dark pockets" of our circumstances and birth the life of Jesus within us, no matter how hopeless things may appear. He encourages believers to move beyond human reasoning and open themselves to God's miraculous work through simple faith and surrender.
Problems in the Exercise of Spiritual Language, Pt. 1

Problems in the Exercise of Spiritual Language, Pt. 1

In this message, Pastor Jack explores the practical dimensions of Spirit-filled life, focusing on problems that can arise with the spiritual language. He draws from Peter's walking on water in Matthew 14 to illustrate both entering into the baptism of the Holy Spirit and learning to walk in it. Pastor Jack addresses common misconceptions about speaking in tongues, emphasizing that it's a volitional act involving the believer's mind and vocal equipment—not an ecstatic trance—and encourages believers to develop this gift as part of their devotional life.
