Can we trust God’s design for His church? In this message from 1 Timothy 2:8–15, Pastor Jeremy unpacks Paul’s restriction of pastoral teaching and governing to qualified men, showing how it is rooted not in cultural bias but in God’s creation order. With humility and hope in the gospel, we are called to receive God’s Word, live out His order in the household of faith, and bear witness together to the redemption we have in Christ
What does it mean for women to be taken seriously as disciples of Jesus? In this message from 1 Timothy 2:11–15, Pastor Jeremy emphasizes Paul’s call for women to be learners in the church, nurtured in a distraction-free environment and equipped to grow in Christ. True discipleship means creating space for women to learn with attentiveness and submission to God’s Word, so that the whole church may be built up in faith and worship
What is the church’s true mission? In this message from 1 Timothy 2:8–15, Pastor Jeremy calls the church back to its identity as a life-saving station, urging men to pray with holy hands and women to adorn themselves with good works.

Where is God when life hurts? In this message from Lamentations 3, Pastor Jeremy shows how Scripture gives us words to lament, a choice to turn to God, and real comfort in His steadfast love and faithfulness.

We've heard from our neighbors what their biggest questions are about faith and God. How do we hear from God today? Hebrew 1:1-4 reminds us that we should open our Bibles and listen to God, we should look to Jesus and trust in Him, and that we should ask the Spirit for help.

In the second chapter of 1 Timothy, the Apostle Paul instructs the church to pray for all people -- specifically, for the salvation of all people. Why should we do that? Paul gives three reasons. God desires the salvation of all people, our confession of faith demands that we invite all people into this salvation, and the death of Christ is sufficient for the salvation of all people. So, let's pray for it!
1 Timothy 2:3-7

This week, our friend Ted Yap from Heights Presbyterian Church, shared with us about how Jesus has come to offer healing. Because of His compassion, we should go to Jesus with our need, and find in Him the restoration and healing we long for. Luke 8:26-39
In this first sermon from a mini-series from 1 Timothy 2:1–7, we explore why prayer must saturate the life of the church. Paul begins his practical instruction to Timothy with a call to pray — not just as a routine, but as the church’s first priority. Why? Because prayer is how we commune with God, express humble dependence on His provision, and participate in His saving mission. This message calls the church to reignite the “boiler room” of intercession — to be a people who truly believe that God still saves, and who boldly pray like it.
1 Timothy 2:1-7

1 Timothy 1:6-11
The Apostle Paul opens this letter to Timothy, reminding him of the urgency to maintain gospel purity in the church.

Jesus alone is worthy of our worship—and He sends us out with His presence.

The tomb is empty, and Jesus is calling us home. Matthew 28:1-10

Matthew 26:57-68, 27:1-2
