Today, Pastor Jack warns us against Easy Believe-ism. We are not saved by works, but faith without action is an empty faith. True Salvation comes through faith in God and His son Jesus Christ. Authentic faith is evident by the fruit in our life.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that just as weeds and thorns take the best water and nutrients away from the seeds, we all deal with worries and cares that rob us of God’s Word, and it’s quickly forgotten.
Today, Pastor Jack teaches that Jesus used parables so He could share His Gospel mission through a common story. Jesus as the Sower is throwing the seeds, which is the Word of God, hoping that it lands on the good soil of our hearts.
Today, Pastor Jack teaches that the challenge is to listen to The Parable of the Sower and examine our own hearts. Have we truly accepted salvation, and are we believers who have gone forward in spite of criticism, or the cares of this life?
Author and speaker Natasha Crain joins Pastor Jack to discuss her newest book, "When Culture Hates You: Persevering for the Common Good as Christians in a Hostile Public Square." Natasha Crain is a national speaker, author, and podcaster whose passion is helping Christians think more clearly about holding to a biblical worldview in a secular culture. She writes and speaks about various related subjects, including apologetics, theology, culture, politics, and parenting. Her new book highlights how the cultural hostility toward Christianity has intensified and how many Christians have grown reluctant to advocate for biblical values in the public square. But our perseverance for the common good—a good defined by God alone—is more important than ever in a culture that embraces darkness.
Today, Pastor Jack teaches us that in this parable, Jesus is the Sower, and we can embrace the seeds of salvation, or allow the seeds to fall by the wayside where our enemy Satan snatches it away.
