  • Do I Just Look Alive?
    Nov 9 2025

    Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God. (Revelation 3:2, NIV)

    This sermon invites the congregation to move from reputation to reality—from the appearance of life to genuine vitality in Christ. We want to emphasize awakening, repentance, renewal, and the breath of the Spirit and Christ’s victorious life.

  • Are You a Shining Light or Blending In?
    Oct 19 2025

    You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. (Matthew 5:13, NIV)

    This sermon calls us to steadfast loyalty to Jesus in a world of compromise. The Christians in Pergamum lived where “Satan’s throne” was—yet they were urged to cling to Christ’s name and reject idolatry and immorality. The tone is both courageous and cleansing: a call to holiness rooted not in shame, but in love for the One who gives us “hidden manna” and a “new name.”

  • Are You Fighting a Losing Battle? - Part 2
    Oct 12 2025

    “Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown.” (Revelation 2:10, NIV)

    As we continue on from last week, we are again reminded that that Jesus is sovereign even in suffering. The letter to Smyrna calls believers to endure persecution, knowing the battle is temporary but the victory is eternal. Worship can highlight giving thanks for Christ’s sovereignty, his victory over death, and the hope of eternal life, while also offering songs of trust and courage for today’s trials.

  • Are You Doing it Right for the Wrong Reason? Part 2
    Sep 28 2025

    “But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first…” (Revelation 2:4, NIV)

    This sermon is a continuation from last week and continues to emphasize Jesus’ words to the church in Ephesus: though they were energetic in service, patient in suffering, and orthodox in belief, they had abandoned their first love of Jesus and one another. We’ll explore how love for Christ must be the foundation of all service, endurance, and doctrine. Worship should focus on returning to our first love in Christ, repentance, and renewal of devotion.
