He began leading songs for the choir and also met Ernest Lee of Ernest J Lee and the Disciples of David. Although they worked on a couple of songs, Jack elected not to pursue music outside his community since he did not feel led by the Spirit to move.

He now endeavors to encourage and strengthen others who may be going through their own personal trials and tribulations so they, too, can know that God can and will Hold You Up.
