Pastor Jack draws from Ephesians 1:15-23 to explore God's high hopes for the church?not our ambitions for ourselves, but the Father's expectations for us. He teaches that the same resurrection power that raised Jesus from the dead is available to break the shackles of our helplessness and fear, and that the church is called to be the fullness of Christ, manifesting His life to the world.

Why Some Prayers Don’t Seem to Succeed, Pt. 2

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack teaches on barriers to effective prayer, focusing specifically on the critical role of forgiveness and reconciliation in our approach to God. Drawing from Matthew 5, he explains how harboring unforgiveness?even when we are not the offender?blocks our prayers and worship, and how God calls us to be initiators of reconciliation just as Christ was. Pastor Jack emphasizes that God will not allow us to persist in unforgiveness without consequences, and that learning the spirit of forgiveness is essential to maturity and answered prayer.

Why Some Prayers Don’t Seem to Succeed, Pt. 1

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack explores the question of why some prayers seem to go unanswered, drawing from the disciples' failure to cast out a demon in Mark 9. He teaches that effectiveness in prayer often depends on three foundational disciplines: laying down a foundation of prayer and fasting, persisting in supplication and fasting (as illustrated by Daniel's 21-day struggle), and maintaining right relationships with others. Pastor Jack emphasizes that unanswered prayer isn't always God saying "no"?sometimes spiritual barriers must be broken through consistent spiritual discipline and reconciliation.
God’s Hand in Natural Calamities

God’s Hand in Natural Calamities

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack teaches from the book of Joel, showing how God uses natural calamities to awaken nations to their need for Him. Drawing parallels between ancient Israel's locust plague and contemporary events like the New York blackout and unusual weather patterns, he calls the church to fasting and intercessory prayer as God's means of breaking spiritual bondage. Pastor Jack proclaims that God not only removes the enemy but abundantly blesses, restores lost years, and pours out His Spirit on those who turn to Him.
Praying With an Understanding Heart ? 1977

Praying With an Understanding Heart ? 1977

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack teaches on praying with understanding, particularly focusing on understanding God the Father's heart. He addresses three common misunderstandings that hinder prayer: misunderstanding praise (not everything that happens is God's will), misunderstanding presumption (we can boldly ask according to His will), and misunderstanding persistence (God is ready to answer quickly, not reluctantly). Drawing from 1 Corinthians 14, Luke 11 and 18, and other passages, Pastor Jack emphasizes that God is not a capricious deity but a loving Father who desires to bless His children.
