- What To Do When It's Not Workingby The River on August 3, 2025 at 4:00 pm
In today's message, Pastor Jack encourages us to examine whether we’re not just doing the right things but doing them in faith. He shares the story of the woman with the issue of blood, who was healed after 12 years because she acted in faith, believing that touching Jesus’ garment would bring her wholeness. Pastor Jack reminds us that faith comes by hearing God’s Word and that we must speak His promises over our lives, especially in challenging areas like marriage, careers, or personal struggles. He emphasizes that combining faith with action unlocks God’s power, breaks bondage, and brings consistent victory. Whether it’s giving, serving, or persevering, we’re urged to expect God’s rewards and trust that He will never let us be put to shame when we walk in faith. Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to reveal where we need to replace routine with faith-filled obedience.Tune in now!Join us for service every Sunday at 9 and 11am (PST) and Wednesday at 7pm (PST)If you received Christ through this message, text JESUS to (253) 859-0832We would love to hear how God is touching your life through this ministry!

- Bigger On The Insideby The River on July 31, 2025 at 2:00 am
In today's message, Pastor Jack encourages us to become "bigger on the inside" so we can overcome the mountains in our lives through faith in Christ. He reminds us that as believers, we are seated with Christ in heavenly places and have authority in His name to pray boldly and expect God's manifestations—whether healing, provision, or breakthroughs. Using Scripture from John 16, Zechariah, and Exodus, Pastor Jack emphasizes that our joy is made full when we see God move in our circumstances. He urges us to incubate God's promises through meditation and imagination, trusting that what we start in faith, we will finish. The message closes with a call to stand firm, see what God is saying to us, and step into the greater works He has prepared for us, knowing that no obstacle is a match for Christ in us.Tune in now!Join us for service every Sunday at 9 and 11am (PST) and Wednesday at 7pm (PST)If you received Christ through this message, text JESUS to (253) 859-0832We would love to hear how God is touching your life through this ministry!

- Excitement That Won't Quitby The River on July 27, 2025 at 4:00 pm
In today's message, Pastor Jack encourages us to reignite the excitement and fire of our faith, just as we experienced when we first encountered God's love. He reminds us that staying energized in our faith is key to receiving God's best in our lives—abundant provision, joy, and purpose. Using the example of the church at Ephesus, he warns against losing our 'first love' and urges us to prioritize our relationship with God above all else, as this impacts every area of our lives, including marriages, careers, and friendships. Pastor Jack challenges us to live with holy expectation, believing for miracles, and to draw close to God rather than settling for a distant relationship. He closes by calling us to repentance, renewed passion, and a commitment to bear fruit in our lives, so we can fully experience the transformative power of God's presence.Tune in now!Join us for service every Sunday at 9 and 11am (PST) and Wednesday at 7pm (PST)If you received Christ through this message, text JESUS to (253) 859-0832We would love to hear how God is touching your life through this ministry!

In today’s message, Pastor Jack encourages us to break free from lukewarm faith and embrace a life of passion and dominion in Christ. He challenges us to trust God fully, whether in times of abundance or need, and to prioritize His Word above all else. Pastor Jack shares how the church in Laodicea lost its fervor but highlights God’s call to repentance and renewal, reminding us that true repentance changes our priorities. He inspires us with the promise of overcoming and sharing in Christ’s throne of earthly dominion, emphasizing that God’s power is available now to transform our lives, marriages, and communities. The message concludes with a powerful call to believe for the impossible, as Pastor Jack prays for God’s healing and breakthrough to overshadow every challenge we face.

- Blessings That Lastby The River on July 17, 2025 at 2:00 am
In today's message, Pastor Jack emphasizes the importance of sustaining God’s blessings in our lives by walking in faith and maintaining fellowship with Him. He explains that while eternal life is a gift received through Christ, our fellowship with God can be hindered by disobedience, which affects the manifestation of His blessings. Pastor Jack highlights that faith must be actively used to remain effective, and we must guard our words and actions, especially during challenges, to avoid disarming God’s work in our lives. He warns against willful sin, particularly rejecting Christ, which can lead to spiritual downfall, but reassures us that as we stay in fellowship, act on what we know, and keep our faith alive, God’s blessings will endure. The message encourages us to remain steadfast, spiritual, and conscious of God’s presence to experience His lasting favor.Tune in now!Join us for service every Sunday at 9 and 11am (PST) and Wednesday at 7pm (PST)If you received Christ through this message, text JESUS to (253) 859-0832We would love to hear how God is touching your life through this ministry!
