On today's "Gospel of the Radio Talk Show," Pastor Jack King tackles the pressing concerns weighing on believers' minds amidst escalating global tensions. He recounts being asked about the "end of the world" as a young man in the Navy during a Middle East conflict in the 1970s and how that same question persists today. While acknowledging that biblical prophecy, particularly the Battle of Armageddon, will involve Israel, Pastor King firmly states that no one knows the day or hour of Christ's return.

He cautions against getting swept up in political speculation and news commentary, instead pointing listeners to the clear biblical warnings, like the parable of the wise and foolish virgins. The core message is not one of fear or frantic prediction, but of diligent preparation. Pastor King encourages a practical, common-sense faith that calls every Christian to live a life worthy of the gospel, staying close to the Master and ensuring their spiritual "lamps" are trimmed and burning. This episode serves as a powerful reminder to focus on our personal walk with God, so that no matter what unfolds on the world stage, we are found ready.

Pastor King also invites local listeners to a 4th of July celebration at Freedom Road Christian Ministry, located at 4141 Appalachee Parkway.

"When God moves, the mountains step aside."

--Pastor Jack King

In this encouraging episode of "The Gospel on the Radio Talk Show," Pastor Jack King takes a break from interviewing guests to share a message directly from his heart, inspired by a song that has deeply ministered to him through recent personal and ministry challenges. The song, "When God Moves" by the Troy Burns Family, has become an anthem for him during the complex process of relocating Freedom Road Christian Ministry and its radio studio.

Pastor King transparently discusses the technical glitches and demanding workload that come with such a massive undertaking, admitting that even seasoned ministers face their share of "bugs" and frustrations. Yet, amidst these "mountains," he finds strength and a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness.

Drawing on the song's lyrics and the imagery of the mustard seed, Pastor King delves into what happens "When God Moves." He emphasizes that God responds to faith—even faith as small as a mustard seed. This "mustard seed theology," as he calls it, isn't about the size of your faith, but about exercising whatever faith you have. By consistently applying your faith, you grow stronger, developing a spiritual command that can speak to literal "mountains" in your life and see them step aside.

This teaching serves as a powerful encouragement for anyone facing daunting obstacles. It's a reminder that God's power is limitless, and His intervention can transform seemingly insurmountable challenges. Pastor King invites listeners to reflect on the times God has moved in their own lives and to recognize that their persistent faith is the key to unlocking His miraculous power. Tune in for a candid, heartfelt, and faith-building message that reassures us of God's active presence in our struggles.

In this heartfelt episode of "The Gospel on the Radio Talk Show," Pastor Jack King, your host for over two decades, shares a powerful observation: a profound spiritual hunger is awakening, particularly among younger generations. Many are "finding the church" and seeking a genuine relationship with God after years of indifference or distance.

Pastor King transparently opens up about his own spiritual journey, from a childhood steeped in church to a pivotal time at age 14 when he began to question his beliefs and solidify his personal commitment to Christ. He candidly shares how this led to foundational life decisions, including a commitment to faithfulness before marriage, a story he elaborates on in his book, Dreams and Visions and Stories of Faith.

He then breaks down the spiritual awakening process into three key stages:

Wondering: A period of contemplation where individuals, perhaps previously indifferent or even rejecting God, begin to open their minds to spiritual possibilities due to life circumstances or divine nudges.

Seeking: Moving beyond mere wondering, this stage involves a conscious decision to actively pursue God, much like Pastor King's own experience crying out to God under a stairwell at Bible college.

Embracing the Holy Spirit: The crucial next step, where a seeker discovers the personal, intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit—the part of the Godhead that connects directly with our hearts, translates our groans, and delivers God’s message back to us. Pastor King emphasizes that this relationship cleanses and convicts, leading to deeper spiritual growth.

Throughout the episode, Pastor King underscores that the Christian walk is a continuous, often challenging, but ultimately joyful journey. He offers a warm invitation to Freedom Road Christian Ministry, a growing church with a new facility on Apalachee Parkway, where he hopes to mentor and influence those on their own seeking journey. He also highlights various radio programs and events from his ministry, including the popular Saturday Night Gospel Sing. Tune in for an encouraging message that speaks directly to the heart of the modern seeker.
