What Are Jack Hayford Ministries?

LIVING WAY MINISTRIES
Living Way Ministries is a non-profit outreach dedicated to strengthening the Church of Jesus Christ through the teaching ministry of Pastor Jack Hayford, the Founding Pastor of The Church On The Way in Van Nuys, CA. Living Way Ministries is a member of the National Religious Broadcasters.

LIVING WAY RADIO
Pastor Jack’s radio ministry started in October 1981 as a weekday, half-hour radio ministry to the members of the congregation at The Church On The Way. The program was originally titled “FreeWay” and later was renamed “Living Way.” Soon the balanced teaching of Pastor Hayford was being requested by radio stations world-wide.

On the “Living Way” radio broadcast, Pastor Hayford draws on a rich lifetime study in God’s Word to bring new light and meaning to the radio listener’s spiritual education. The “Living Way” weekday radio program can be heard in over 26 states, and world-wide via www.jackhayford.com.

SPIRIT FORMED TELEVISION
The television ministry began June 20, 1977 when Pastor Jack Hayford taped a series for the Trinity Broadcasting Network called “Teach Us To Pray,” which continued until September 1980. During 1979 Pastor Hayford also taped the series:  “Ask Anything” (Pastor Jack’s well-known "Nehemiah" teachings were part of this series.) These half-hour telecasts launched Pastor Jack’s broadcast ministry and what has today become Jack Hayford Ministries.

In the late 1980's, the Lord opened up an opportunity for a one-hour television program. This program—featuring Pastor Jack’s pulpit ministry—was a reflection of the life and worship of The Church On The Way…thus it was titled: “The Church on the Way.” The first broadcast in this new format aired on October 25, 1987; Pastor Jack’s message was: "What To Do When You're Downcast." In April 1991, this one-hour program was renamed,”Living Way”: it aired on more than 500 television facilities until September 2002.

On September 15, 2002 Living Way Ministries introduced, “Spirit Formed.” In this half-hour television program, Pastor Hayford speaks directly to viewers and teaches from God’s Word in an intimate and personal way. “Spirit Formed” is a more direct broadcast in line with the times and consistent with Pastor Jack’s practical approach to the Word of God.

”Spirit-Formed” can be seen in all 50 states, Canada and throughout the world. The scope of the international television broadcast ministry has expanded, to allow us to broadcast throughout the United States, Canada, more than 40 countries in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East over TBN / Channel 7 Europe. Both radio and television broadcasts may be heard/seen on the web, www.jackhayford.com.
