Pastor Jack draws from the Christmas narrative and Isaiah 9 to explore the promise that God’s jealous commitment ensures our fulfillment. He explains that the Hebrew word for “zeal” carries the meaning of jealousy?not the toxic kind, but God’s intolerance of anything that would hinder our mutual fulfillment with Him. Through personal stories of congregants facing discouragement, fear, and loss, Pastor Jack illustrates how we come to know the names of Christ?Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace?only through the very trials that threaten to overwhelm us.
