The Church that Jesus Builds

The Church that Jesus Builds

Drawing from his very first sermon as pastor at the Church on the Way, Pastor Jack explores the foundational passage where Jesus declares, "I will build my church." Preaching now at the beginning of his fifth year, he unpacks four earmarks of the church Christ builds: a church that knows the whole Christ (not a fragmented view), a church where believers discover their true identity in Him, a church built by Jesus Himself (not human effort), and a church that conquers the gates of hell through kingdom authority.
Spiritual Worship

Spiritual Worship

Pastor Jack teaches on the priority and pattern of spiritual worship, anchoring his message in Romans 12:1-2. He emphasizes that true worship involves the whole person—spirit, mind, and body—and that presenting our bodies to God is not merely rational service but spiritual worship. Drawing from both Old and New Testament practices, Pastor Jack challenges cultural and aesthetic reservations about physical expressions of worship, urging believers to embrace wholehearted worship as their primary calling and the key to fulfillment in God.
A Day in the Life of a World-Heir, Pt. 2, Romans #13

A Day in the Life of a World-Heir, Pt. 2, Romans #13

Pastor Jack explores the believer's response to tribulation, teaching from Romans 5:1-5. He explains how trials are not meant to be endured through gritted teeth, but rather understood as God's process for producing patience, proven character, and hope in our lives. Drawing from personal illustrations and a prophetic word, Pastor Jack encourages believers to lift their eyes even in darkness, confident that God's timing is perfect and His victory is certain.
Learning to Receive God’s Word Without Condemnation, Nehemiah #10

Learning to Receive God’s Word Without Condemnation, Nehemiah #10

Pastor Jack teaches from Nehemiah chapter 8 on how to receive God's Word with joy rather than condemnation. When the law was read to the restored community, the people wept under guilt—but Nehemiah and Ezra redirected them to rejoice because the Word came to set them free, not condemn them. Pastor Jack emphasizes that God's truth is given not to crush us with shame, but to lead us into liberty and strength through the joy of the Lord.
A Day in the Life of a World-Heir, Pt. 1, Romans #14

A Day in the Life of a World-Heir, Pt. 1, Romans #14

In this message, Pastor Jack explores Romans chapter 5, focusing on what believers possess in their daily walk as heirs of God's kingdom. He teaches on the distinction between peace with God (which requires our abiding) and access to God (which is secured permanently through Christ's blood), showing how these two realities sustain us through the challenges of faith-filled living. Pastor Jack also addresses how faith comes through the Word, hope through tribulation, and love through the Holy Spirit's infilling.
