Pastor Jack continues his eight-part series on ministry by exploring the sealing work of the Holy Spirit from Ephesians 1:13-14. He draws from Old Testament prophecies in Ezekiel, Isaiah, Joel, and Zechariah to show that being filled with the Spirit is not an endpoint but a down payment?qualifying believers not just to receive eternal life but to become agents of God's kingdom. In a transparent conclusion, Pastor Jack shares two personal struggles with fear and pride, modeling the confession and cleansing needed for wholeness.

Pastor Jack teaches on the sealing work of the Holy Spirit, emphasizing that being sealed with the Spirit is distinct from being saved by the Spirit. Drawing from Ephesians 1:13 and Acts 19, he explains that the baptism with the Holy Spirit is a subsequent experience that authorizes believers for ministry and releases the gifts of the Spirit. Pastor Jack urges the congregation to be filled with the Spirit, not out of fanaticism, but to become dispensers of God's miracle power and life to others.
Knowing Who We Are

Pastor Jack launches a new series on the book of Ephesians, focusing on discovering our identity in Christ as the foundation for authentic ministry. He emphasizes that God has specifically chosen, adopted, and accepted each believer for unique purpose, and that ministry flows not from activity or effort, but from understanding who we are in Him. Using vivid illustrations about keys and adoption, Pastor Jack challenges the congregation to move beyond survival thinking and step into their God-given calling during what he calls the "Summer of Ministry Availability."

Saint, Be Filled, Pt. 2

Pastor Jack teaches on the necessity of being filled with the Holy Spirit in order to carry on the ministry that Jesus began. Drawing from Acts 1, he emphasizes that while the indwelling of the Spirit produces character, purity, and fruit in believers, the infilling of the Spirit releases power, authority, and gifts for effective ministry. Pastor Jack challenges the congregation to be obedient and open to receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, including the gift of tongues, so that Jesus can continue His work through them.

Pastor Jack continues his series in Revelation, examining the letter to the church in Pergamos. He reveals Jesus as the "legislator of the church"?the one who speaks the precise, balanced word of truth. Drawing from Christ's commendation and correction of this persecuted congregation, Pastor Jack warns against the twin dangers of Nicolaitanism (spiritual hierarchy that stifles ministry) and the doctrine of Balaam (libertinism that dismisses holy discernment). He challenges believers to reject both legalism and license while embracing the hidden manna and true identity Christ offers to those who overcome.
