Jacob's Well Church

Our world is in desperate need of good, strong men—men of character and courage who grow, lead, and serve like Christ. Whether you’re a dad, a mentor, or just trying to figure it out, you’re called to rise up. This is a message about legacy, responsibility, and the kind of strength that makes a difference.

It creeps in quietly—sometimes while sitting in your favorite chair, sometimes when scrolling past someone else’s life. Coveting may not seem as dangerous as other sins, but it can poison your heart, relationships, and even your view of God. In this message, we’ll unpack how this subtle yet toxic mindset of comparison, entitlement, and envy can steal your joy and contentment—and discover how Christ offers us a better way to live with freedom and gratitude.

What does it really mean to be a safe person? In this message Pastor Paul takes a deeper look at the commands not to steal or bear false witness—revealing how these aren’t just rules, but relational foundations built on trust, truth, and integrity. When we live in reality and walk in honesty, we stop taking from others and start building something better together.

Pastor Paul invites us to see the Ten Commandments not just as a list of rules, but as a call to become people who honor life and reflect God’s heart in our relationships. Jesus moves the conversation from behavior to the heart—showing us that contempt, lust, and dehumanization are as destructive to our souls as outward actions. As we remember the value of every person made in God's image, we’ll explore how true life is found in giving life, protecting dignity, and choosing love over contempt, even in the most difficult relationships.

In a world that never stops pushing, many of us find ourselves constantly exhausted—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. But God offers us something radically different: the gift of rest. In this message, we explore the Sabbath not as a rule to follow, but as a rhythm of grace—a sacred space for renewal, trust, and joy. Come find freedom in the kind of rest that restores your soul.

In this heartfelt and practical Mother’s Day message, Terri Markquart invites us to rediscover the beauty and power of the fifth commandment—honor your father and mother. With wisdom, humor, and personal stories, we explore what it truly means to attach value to others, beginning in the home. From parenting’s heavy moments to the quiet strength of caring for aging parents, this message challenges us to become people of honor in a world that desperately needs it.

What do you worship—really? In this powerful message, we’re invited to consider that worship isn’t just singing songs or praying; it’s about what captures our heart, attention, and sacrifice every single day. Whether we realize it or not, we all worship something. Pastor Paul unpacks the first three commandments not as rules, but as life-giving principles that reveal how worship shapes our identity, our priorities, and our relationships. 

This week focuses on the context behind our new series on the Ten Commandments.

We were made for covenant, not chaos. In this message, we begin rediscovering the power of covenant—where love and commitment meet to create the foundation for flourishing families, churches, and nations. Through the lens of the Ten Commandments, we see how God’s timeless truths are not just ancient rules, but a path to real freedom, written on our hearts through Jesus.

What if the empty tomb wasn’t just a symbol of hope—but the turning point of your entire story? In this Easter message, Pastor Paul unpacks the deeper meaning behind the resurrection of Jesus and the gifts it offers to every one of us. Whether your life feels stuck in tragedy, weighed down by fear, or wandering without direction, the risen Christ invites you into something greater. Something lasting. Something true. Come discover the three gifts of the empty tomb—and what they might mean for your story.4o
