- Passing Through To The Other Sideby The River on October 6, 2024 at 4:00 pm
In today's message, Pastor Jack reminded us of the importance of not letting our trials define us. He shared that just as Jesus instructed His disciples to go to the other side of the storm, God wants us to come through our challenges victorious, not stuck in them. Using powerful examples from scripture, including the Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace and Joshua leading the Israelites through the flooded Jordan, Pastor Jack emphasized that God can protect us and bring us out of difficult situations without the trials sticking to us. He encouraged us to deal with emotions like anger and grief quickly, lest they turn into bitterness and overwhelm our faith. Pastor Jack urged us to accept what we cannot change, trust God for a new vision, and believe that no matter the loss, God still has great things ahead for us. Through faith in Christ, we can come through anything stronger and more blessed. Tune in now!

- Power Of Passing Throughby The River on September 29, 2024 at 4:00 pm
In today's message, Pastor Jack talks about "The Power of Passing Through" and how as believers, we often carry emotional and spiritual baggage from hardships, preventing us from fully entering the blessings God has for us. Drawing from the stories of the Israelites' journey to the Promised Land and the trials of figures like Jacob and Jesus, Pastor Jack encourages us not to let the pain of past experiences linger in our lives. Instead, we are called to cling to God, trust Him through the challenges, and emerge without the weight of our struggles, stepping into the fullness of His blessings. Pastor Jack reminds us that, like Christ passed through suffering for our salvation, we too can pass through our trials with hope and victory, leaning on God's promises and the support of our church community.

- Don't Stop Seeing Yourself Blessedby The River on September 22, 2024 at 4:00 pm
In today's message, Pastor Jack encourages us to never stop seeing ourselves as blessed, regardless of our circumstances. He reminds us that even in the valleys of life, we are still blessed, and we must maintain a vision of that blessing to keep it flowing into our lives. Using scripture from 2 Timothy and Romans, Pastor Jack emphasizes the power of faith and confession. He explains that when we lose sight of our blessings, we block them. By sowing seeds of faith, maintaining a positive confession, and trusting God’s faithfulness, we can experience His blessings daily, even in challenging times. Tune in now!

- Truth That Turns Losers Into Winnersby The River on September 19, 2024 at 2:00 am
In today's message, Pastor Jack reminds us of the transformative power of salvation, which goes beyond merely forgiving sins. He emphasizes that the salvation we have received through Jesus Christ is not only for our mistakes but also for the negative effects others may have caused in our lives. By drawing on the story of the adulterous woman in John 8, Pastor Jack shows how Jesus' grace frees us from condemnation, giving us the ability to overcome sin. Pastor Jack encourages us to use our faith in all areas of life—our families, careers, and marriages—so that God's power can reign and bring lasting change. Tune in now!
