Pastor Tony’s message, “Who Is This Man?”, centered on the identity, purpose, and power of Jesus Christ. Drawing from Matthew 1:21, he reminded us that Jesus came with a clear mission—to save His people from their sins. Through the joyful cries of the crowd in John 12 and the prophetic words of Isaiah 9, we see Jesus not only as a King but as our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, and Prince of Peace. Pastor Tony emphasized three key...

Pastor Brian’s message from yesterday centered on the importance of seeking God’s presence and being willing to separate from distractions in order to fully pursue Him. Drawing from Exodus 33:7-11, he highlighted how Moses would isolate himself in the "tent of meeting" to encounter God, emphasizing that isolation can sometimes be necessary for spiritual separation. Pastor Brian pointed out that many desire God's presence but are un...

Pastor Tony's message yesterday focused on the life of Joseph, illustrating how God's purpose unfolds through trials and triumphs. Using Genesis 37, he highlighted Joseph's dreams and the jealousy they sparked in his brothers, leading to betrayal and hardship. The six stages of a dream—I thought it, I caught it, I bought it, I sought it, I got it, I taught it—mapped Joseph's journey from the pit to the palace, emphasizing persevera...

Rooted in Matthew 22:37-39, she reminded us that loving God and others is our highest calling. She encouraged inviting God into our conflicts, having courageous conversations, listening intently, and choosing kindness.

Pastor Tony's message emphasized that before Jesus gave us the Great Commission (Matthew 28:16-20), He first gave us the Great Commandment (Matthew 22:36-40), making love the foundation for our mission. We cannot effectively make disciples if we do not first love God with all our heart, soul, and mind and love our neighbors as ourselves—even when they are difficult to love. Love is not just a feeling but a decision that leads to ac...

Pastor Jason’s message yesterday centered on the call for believers to live as the salt of the earth and the light of the world, drawing from Matthew 5:13–16. He emphasized that as salt, Christians are called to bring flavor, preserve goodness, and cleanse through their influence, warning against losing their effectiveness by conforming to worldly patterns (1 Corinthians 15:33, Ephesians 5:3-4). As light, believers are to dispel da...

In Pastor Tony’s sermon, Jesus in WE, he highlights the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, drawing from Acts 1:8, which calls believers to be witnesses in their communities and beyond.

Moving to Jesus in We, Pastor Tony unpacks Mark 16:15, urging collective action as a church to...

Pastor Tony's message reflects on Jesus' heart, as seen in Luke 19:41, where Jesus weeps over Jerusalem, revealing His deep compassion and desire for spiritual renewal.

With a renewed focus on purpose, priorities, an...

Pastor Tony’s message emphasizes the profound revelation of God’s character and presence through Jesus Christ, bridging the Old Testament and New Testament.

Through the incarnation, G...

Pastor Brian highlights the ever-present and faithful nature of God. Drawing from Ezekiel 48:35, he reminds us that God's presence is constant, even when we focus on problems rather than the Problem Solver. Through Psalm 139, we are assured that God is with us in our darkest doubts and furthest wanderings. Pastor Brian also reflects on Jehovah El Roi, the God who sees, using Genesis 16:13 to show that God's watchful care extends in...

As Yahweh, God reveals His personal and eternal nature, declaring Himself a...

As we conclude our series ‘Matters of The Heart’ and enter into Thanksgiving week, Pastor Jason reminds us of the importance of gratitude. For most believers, it’s “easy” to thank God after we experience a victory, but what about thanking God before the victory? Now that can be challenging, even more so thanking God and extending gratitude towards the Father during the battle can be even more of a challenge. In this message, we can...
