Pastor Jack draws from the story of the wise men bringing gifts to Jesus and connects it to the theme of spiritual gifts in believers’ lives. He teaches that every person is born with spiritual gifts from God the Creator-not just those born again-and that these gifts are meant to glorify God and serve others. Using both Matthew 2 and Romans 12, Pastor Jack encourages men to recognize and open the treasure chest of their God-given abilities, refusing to let the world system manipulate them, and departing from this Christmas season as changed men who partner with Christ in authority and purpose.
