God’s Predestined Plan for You

God’s Predestined Plan for You

Pastor Jack draws from the setting of Paul writing Ephesians while chained in a Roman dungeon surrounded by darkness, dampness, and the stench of Rome's sewers, yet declaring "Blessed be God." In this message, Pastor Jack explores God's predestined plan written for every believer in Christ?not a fatalistic destiny, but an authored inheritance where God Himself has "inherited" us into His victory program. He teaches that when we understand we've been written into God's will through Christ, no circumstance can dominate us, because we're predestined to triumph just as Jesus did.
1977 Abraham and Isaac on Golgotha

1977 Abraham and Isaac on Golgotha

Drawing from Genesis 22, Pastor Jack explores the profound connection between Abraham's offering of Isaac on Mount Moriah and Christ's crucifixion at Golgotha. Through archaeological, geological, and biblical evidence from his recent trip to Israel, Pastor Jack demonstrates how God's sovereign foreknowledge orchestrated these events at the same location two millennia apart, revealing both the Father's heart and His predetermined plan of redemption.
How to Tell Christmas Time

How to Tell Christmas Time

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.
Fundamentals for a Fruitful Life Together

Fundamentals for a Fruitful Life Together

In this message from a 1976 Young Marrieds Retreat, Pastor Jack teaches on fundamental presuppositions for a fruitful marriage. He emphasizes that God's commandments are given out of love to show us how life works best, and he explores the critical foundations every marriage needs: acknowledging the Lord first in all decisions, being committed to your marriage based on God's providence, and embracing mercy and truth in your relationship.
Introduction to Exodus

Introduction to Exodus

Pastor Jack opens the Book of Exodus with a detailed introduction that spans history, archaeology, and chronology. He walks through the dating of the Exodus, placing it at approximately 1441 B.C., and explores the Egyptian dynasties?including the reigns of Thutmose II, Thutmose III, Hatshepsut, and Amenhotep?to illuminate Moses' upbringing in the height of Egypt's glory. Drawing from archaeological finds like the Tell el Amarna letters and excavations at Jericho and Pithom, Pastor Jack shows how extra-biblical evidence corroborates the biblical record and deepens our appreciation for Moses' forsaking of Egypt's splendor to identify with God's people.
