Dr. Jack Hughes serves as Senior Pastor at Calvary Bible Church in Burbank, California. Prior to this he served as a pastor in Idaho and also helped to plant two churches. Jack graduated from Boise State University with a degree in electronics technology. He attended The Master's Seminary and received an M.Div. degree.

Jack wrote a book for preachers entitled Expository Preaching with Word Pictures: with illustrations from the sermons of Thomas Watson.Jack and his wife, Lisa, have three teenage children - Leah, Nate, and Mark.In addition, we ave also confirmed two guest seminar speakers. Lisa Hughes will lead the seminars for women and John Richard will lead the seminars for youth.
Lisa and her husband Jack have been married 26 years. They have three great kids, two of whom are in college and one still in high school. As the wife of a devoted and busy pastor Lisa’s ministry involvement has ranged from serving in the nursery to planning church picnics. But for the last twenty years her greatest joy has been to write and teach Bible studies for the ladies in her church. It is her desire to see women develop a hunger for God’s Word and then watch as the Lord transforms their lives through the study of the Scriptures. Lisa’s goal in life can be summed up in Second Corinthians 5:14-15: For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
