The Letter That Kills, Romans #18

The Letter That Kills, Romans #18

Pastor Jack teaches on the destructive nature of legalism and the liberating power of walking in the Spirit rather than being bound by the letter of the law. Drawing from Romans 7:1-6, he explains that believers have died to the law through Christ's death and are now married to the resurrected Christ, who produces spiritual fruit in their lives. Pastor Jack emphasizes that while we cannot fulfill God's law through our own efforts, Christ's life in us brings genuine obedience and transformation, freeing us from condemnation and enabling us to serve in the newness of the Spirit rather than the oldness of the letter.
How to Minister the Love of God to Others

How to Minister the Love of God to Others

Pastor Jack draws from the account of Jesus washing His disciples' feet in John 13 to teach on how believers can minister God's love to one another. He emphasizes that the power and blessing of a church flows not from particular practices or traditions, but from the authentic flow of God's love among His people. Walking through Jesus' deliberate actions—rising from supper, laying aside His garments, girding Himself as a servant, pouring water in a basin, and washing their feet—Pastor Jack unpacks practical principles for loving ministry that goes beyond superficial interaction to genuine, humble service.
Spirit, Soul, and Body

Spirit, Soul, and Body

Pastor Jack draws from 1 Thessalonians to teach on the threefold nature of the human person—spirit, soul, and body. He explains how the spirit is our God-consciousness, the soul comprises our intellect, emotions, and will, and the body is our world-consciousness. Pastor Jack emphasizes that wholeness and healing flow from the inside out when Christ brings light and life to the darkened human spirit, and that true deliverance and transformation require understanding how we are put together and how the life of God penetrates every dimension of our personality.
Testimony of Learning Obedience  (Pastor Jack Hayford’s personal testimony)

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.
