Pastor Jack teaches from Revelation's letter to the church at Ephesus, focusing on three key themes: maintaining first love for Jesus, bearing up faithfully in works and labor, and rejecting Nicolaitanism?anything that lets others be spiritual in our place. He applies these principles practically by leading the congregation in worship, receiving a special offering for a growing church in earthquake-devastated San Francisco, Guatemala, and emphasizing personal ministry development.

The Problem of the Sabbath

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack draws from Isaiah and Genesis to explore the often-misunderstood principle of the Sabbath. After a seven-week season away from ministry, he shares how God redefined the concept of Sabbath in his own life?not as a legalistic day of religious observance, but as a spiritual principle of resting from our own labors so the Lord can work in us what He desires. Pastor Jack teaches that Sabbath is God's gift to free us from the bondage of busyness and to remind us that we can never accomplish everything by our own hands.

How to Make Right Decisions

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack explores the process of making right decisions through integrity, dependence on God, and wise counsel. Drawing from Philippians 1:9-11, he teaches that God desires believers to abound in knowledge and discernment so they can approve what is excellent and bear spiritual fruit. Pastor Jack emphasizes three core principles: seek and believe God fully, fear neither the godly nor the ungodly in seeking counsel or standing firm, and act in complete integrity of heart without making provision for the flesh.
