Pastor Jeff Owens

“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.” —Proverb 11:30

Pastor Jeff Owens is one of America's favorite preachers!!! He's an American Bible teacher, pastor and author. He has been preaching the gospel since 1976. He is a man of great expression, compassion and wisdom. He spent 18 years of his life under the legendary ministry of Dr. Jack Hyles of First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana, aka, “The World’s Largest Sunday School.” Since the time of Dwight L. Moody, no other ministry has reached as many people for Jesus Christ as Dr. Hyles' ministry.

Fourteen of these years, Dr. Owens was one of Dr. Hyles’ faithful assistant pastors, who also served as vice-president of Hyles-Anderson College. Hyles-Anderson College was started in 1972 to prepare young men and women to better serve the Lord. Unlike most dead-beat colleges, Hyles-Anderson has historically produced preachers and not just teachers. The Spirit of God has been at work and the results have been phenomenal!

For several years Brother Owens faithfully pastored the great Shenandoah Bible Baptist Church, which is located in Martinsburg, West Virginia. The church grew rapidly to an average Sunday attendance of over 1,000 people, and under his leadership the church became known as “One of America’s Most Exciting Churches.” Thousands of souls were saved through believing the gospel (death, burial and resurrection) of Jesus Christ.

Pastor Jeff is a diligent soulwinner, fervent preacher, and takes an uncompromising stand against sin; but the hallmark quality of Dr. Owens is his genuine love and concern for people. Would to God America had more such faithful men of God.

Truly the following Scripture may happen soon... PERHAPS TODAY! “...The Lord Himself shall descend from heaven” and “...the dead in Christ shall rise...” (1st Thessalonians 4:16). Even so, come, Lord Jesus! ~by David J. Stewart

    “The Good Samaritan, what made him different? From all that I can tell—he cared!” —Pastor Jeff Owens, “Who Cares Anyhow?”

    “To those of you that are hurting—Don't quit! Don't quit on God, stay in church, stay on your knees, stay in your Bible, keep witnessing, don't give up your church duties; Hey! Keep telling others about Jesus!” —Pastor Jeff Owens, “Who Cares Anyhow?”

    “You know, the greatest thing that God gives us is Himself, Himself. Have you replaced a desire for Him, with a desire for getting something from Him? And what I mean is this—The greatest thing God gives you is God! Most of us are attached to the benefits of God, and not the God of the benefits. Your Christianity is on the right level, when you want God, more than you want what you can get out of Him!” —Pastor Jeff Owens, a MP3 sermon, “Fearing His Goodness In The Latter Days.”

    “We ought to fear substituting the goodness 
    of our God, for the God of the goodness!”
    —Pastor Owens, “    Fearing His Goodness In The Latter Days.”

    THE GOSPEL

    Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's 
    best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.

    “This whole society is rotten and Godless. The wrath of God is upon America. Mark my
    word: if God’s Word be true, this nation is headed for the dust.    ” —Pastor Tom Malone (1971)

    Awesome preacher quotes:

    “The Bible is an amazing Book! When you're down, it'll lift you up. When you're up,
    it'll bring you down. When you're in, it'll get you out. When you're out, it'll bring you in!”

    “Men do not reject the Bible because it contradicts itself, but because it contradicts them.”

    “Some people give Satan a stick to beat them with.”

    “God's way meets at the intersection of human responsibility and
    divine providence. Be actively attentive. You be submissive to God's leading.”

    “Satan confuses people to keep them lost.”

    “A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you in spite of it.”

    “In the world you get relief by escaping your burden,
    but in Jesus you're happy in your burden.”     —Dr. Jack Hyles

    “The only difference between folks who've been to college and folks who haven't
    been to college is that they're stupid on different subjects.”     —Dr. Jack Hyles

    “God loves us, not because of who we are, but because of Who He is.”

    “There's a judgment coming, but you have the choice to settle out of court.”

    “The Christian life is not a playground, it's a battleground.”

    “Don't ever preach yourself too far from the cross. Reach back
    often and make much of Jesus and you'll never go wrong doing that.”

    “I am an old-fashioned preacher of the old-time religion, that has
    warmed this cold world's heart for two thousand years.”     —Billy SUNDAY

    *Historical Mention: I gratefully attended Hyles-Anderson College (HAC) between 1985-1993. I fully realize the incredible opportunity and blessing that I received by being able to attend such a fundamental Baptist Bible college—and most of all being able to partake, work and learn as part of the precious soulwinning ministry of Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001), my hero of the Christian faith! I sure miss Brother Hyles!!! Dr. Jeff Owens was one of my Bible professors at HAC, who taught me a class on Pastoral Counseling, which I cherish. Each spring the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana, hosted it's annual Pastor's School (which I cherish having worked in and attended each year). I remember one particular year that Brother Hyles commission Brother Owens to put together an Arby's roast beef restaurant on the second floor of the church. I'm not kidding! Literally, after being told multiple times by Arby's management that it just won't happen—IT HAPPENED! Much planning and work went into setting up the Arby's restaurant. The Arby's corporation required that every detail be exact! I was amazed!!! For one week, just for Pastor's School there was a fully-working Arby's restaurant, which Brother Owens put together with a handful of volunteer students. It looked exactly like an Arby's in every way. They had Food Manager's Licenses, all the Arby's restaurant decor, and professional kitchen equipment—the whole nine-yards! Awesome! And may I say, Brother Owens was well known at First Baptist Church of Hammond and Hyles-Anderson College, as a humble and fervent soulwinner, who loved people and made a difference for God!

    “Do you want some advice about depression—if you're depressed, love your way out of it! Love your way out of it!—You say, 'What do you mean?' LOVE GOD! And if you'll love God, then you'll do what God commands, and you'll do what God wants, and you'll do what is best for God; and staying in that state is not best for God. Love your way out of it!” —Pastor Jeff Owens, a beautiful quote from the sermon titled, “God Knows The Truth About Your Love.”

    “Those of you who are down, love will get you up!”

Brother Owens did not ask me to publish this webpage (nor does he necessarily agree with all the content of my website ministry); but rather, I published this webpage to promote the hard work and doctrinally sound sermons of Pastor Jeff Owens, whom I admire tremendously for his uncompromising stand for God, genuine compassionate love for people, teaching us to forgive by example, and that he continues to “earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 1:3). I love this dear man of God! ~by David J. Stewart
