Let’s explore what Scripture says about the value of relationships—especially family and friends—and how we can treasure them as God intended.
God is sovereign and will complete all his purposes and promises no matter what. In Acts 27:27-44, we see his sovereignty in the details of Paul’s life as he journeys to Rome. It may seem puzzling and confusing that God caused Paul to go through a shipwreck. His sovereignty over the details of Paul’s life is written down to comfort and strengthen us in our time of difficulties because we know God is good and is sovereign over the details of our lives.
Paul was finally on his way to Rome. Traveling by sea, they encountered violent storm that caused them to drift uncontrollably. And they began to lose all hope.In this life, we are bound to encounter violent life's storms. How should we, as believers, navigate through life's storms?Paul was finally on his way to Rome.

As the apostle Paul is giving his defence in the climax of his trials, the hope that has driven him all this time shines through and it shocks those who are listening to him. For Paul's concern is not about his freedom, but about the hope of the promises to Abraham, to the Prophets and those given by Jesus. The challenge for us is to examine our lives to see whether we cling to the same hope or some other false hope that Saul once did as well.
In Acts 25, Paul stands trial yet again—this time before corrupt leaders, false accusations, and shifting political schemes. Outwardly, he is a prisoner, but inwardly, Paul is the freest man in the room. This passage reminds us that true freedom isn't found in circumstances but in Christ. As we see Paul entrust himself to God's sovereign hand, we’re invited to trust that no earthly power can derail God’s purposes. Come discover how the unstoppable Gospel shines bright even when surrounded by worldly power—and how we, like Paul, can live unchained.

Do we feel defeated when others don't respond positively to the message? Please join us this Sunday as we learn from the Apostle Paul in Acts 24 as he responds to accusations made by Ananias, the High Priest before Governor Felix.
There are times in our faith journey that life seems to spin out of control. Threats arise. Plans fall apart. People betray us. A disease haunts us. Financial woes creeps upon us. Darkness appears to be closing in, and God is silent. And in these moments, we cry out to God: "Where are You, God?" And God still stay silent.
And yet, in His silence, God’s providence assures us that God is not only present but actively orchestrating every detail of our lives for His glory.
We explore how the early church faced hardship with bold faith, and how those same themes are playing out in the church in Iran today. Through Scripture and powerful modern day true stories, we’ll be reminded that no matter the challenge or opposition, God is not finished yet. Because Jesus is truly alive, He is still writing a beautiful story—and we are invited to live into it.
Acts 22:22–23:10 Jesus spent a good deal of time preparing His disciples for how hard it would be to follow Him. It should not take us by surprise that in this world we will have tribulation for the sake of the gospel. It was this type of situation that Paul found himself in our text for today's sermon. How would he respond? How will we respond?
In Acts 22:1–21, Paul shares a deeply personal story — not just of his past, but of a radical encounter with Jesus that changed everything. This is more than a testimony; it’s a declaration of God's grace, power, and purpose. Like Paul, each of us carries a story that must be told — a story that speaks of redemption, transformation, and a calling to do the will of God. Don't hide your story — let it point others to the One who rewrites destinies.
Paul came to Jerusalem fully aware that many Jews wanted him dead. Yet he followed God's will, even when it led him straight into danger, because he cared more about others’ eternal souls than his own well-being. This week, examine Paul’s arrest in Jerusalem and reflect on God’s calling in our own lives—and the cost of truly following Jesus.
Where do strength and courage come from in the midst of confusing & difficult times? What does the Lord want us to know? How does He want his children act?
We continue our journey through the Book of Acts by looking at how Paul handled complex cultural and spiritual tensions in Jerusalem. Through his example, we are challenged to live with a mission-minded heart that honors God and builds up His Church.We reflect on three key truths:Celebrate the Harvest—Even When It’s Not Yours (vv. 17–20a)Rejoice in how God works through others, even when you’re not in the spotlight.Lay Down Our Rights, Lift Up Others (vv. 20b–24)True unity often requires humility and sacrifice.Build Bridges, Not Barriers (vv. 25–26)Seek peace and understanding to foster a united witness for Christ.
In our Christian walk, we often assume that obedience to God will lead to blessing, and it does. But blessing, in the biblical sense, doesn't always mean ease or safety or richness. Sometimes, the path to obedience takes us through storms, trials, and painful goodbyes. And yet, it’s in those moments that our faith is most clearly displayed not only to others but also to ourselves.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most pivotal event in human history, especially our Christian faith. What is the significance of it for our belief, behavior, and hope for the future?
We are living in uncertain times. We need to learn to trust God even in these times.
What kind of people did Jesus call to follow Him and why is it good news? Is following Jesus worth it? Come discover these answers as we look at the call of the first disciples of Jesus.
No one escapes trials in this life. Sometimes people attack us. Sometimes situations in the world affect us negatively. Sometimes our own behaviour brings us into terrible hardship. How do we face this kind of suffering? In Psalm 62 David gives us a Spirit-led snapshot of his own cry to God and the confidence he has in the Lord. This is a great opportunity to arm ourselves with the same thinking as we face the realities of living in this world.
God brings about changes in Joseph and Pharaoh, but it all works according to His sovereign timing. We should take confidence in waiting on God to use us to impact others with the gospel.
