Thank God for Fathers

Thank God for Fathers

In this Father's Day message, Pastor Jack explores the biblical concept of spiritual fatherhood and the profound impact fathers have on those around them. Drawing from his own life, he shares stories of his biological father and two spiritual fathers—Vincent Byrd and Maurice Toll—illustrating how ordinary men, despite their imperfections, can become anchors of faith and generosity through God's redemptive grace. Pastor Jack calls the congregation, especially the men, to embrace the spiritual maturity and steadfast influence that comes from knowing "him who is from the beginning."
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.
God’s Famithfulness to the Work of His Hands, Nehemiah #11

God’s Famithfulness to the Work of His Hands, Nehemiah #11

Pastor Jack concludes his series on Nehemiah by exploring the Holy Spirit's insistence that what He begins in us must be followed up. Drawing from Nehemiah 13, Pastor Jack shows how Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem after an absence and found the people had drifted into disobedience—violating the Sabbath, withholding tithes, and intermarrying with unbelievers. Pastor Jack teaches that just as Nehemiah took direct action to correct these violations, the Holy Spirit lovingly but firmly disciplines believers to complete the work of restoration in our lives, preparing us as a bride without spot or wrinkle for Christ's return.
