Agape Baptist Church Singapore

We all long to have God-encounters. The fact that we cannot worship together physically can make us feel like we are missing out on that touch from God or the privilege of hearing God speak powerfully to us in the midst of the assembly of God's covenant community.  But God-encounters in the Bible came to men not necessarily caught up in a worship environment.  People in the Bible came to...

This sermon will focus on “Mistaken Role”. Parents play many roles in the lives of our children such as being teachers, coaches, cheerleaders, disciplinarians, and much more. If we assume the wrong parenting role, we are likely going to produce the wrong results. Come find out the God-given role that He has entrusted to Christian parents in shaping our next generation. Pastor Too Teh Hsin conclude...

Parents are on a mission in raising our children. What is our mission? How do we know whether we are on the right or wrong mission? Most importantly, as Christian parents, how do we ensure our mission is centered on God and our parenting shaped by the Gospel? Pastor Teh Hsin answers these questions from the sermon: "Mistaken Mission”.

The closing sermon in this series is about courage. It is said that Christian courage is indispensable for both spreading and preserving the truth of Christ. If that is true, how do we grow in Christian courage? Thomas (an elder in Agape) will lead us through Acts 4: 13-22. This sermon will also look at what Christian courage looks like for the early followers of Jesus and what that means for us t...

Compassion is not a feeling. It is about reaching out practically; going where it hurts, entering into places of pain, sharing in brokenness, fear, confusion, and anguish of others. Yet ours is a diminishing compassion. Thomas (an elder in Agape) will lead us through Matthew 9:18-26, 35-38. In A Call to Compassion, we will see how the compassion of Christ embraces us, transforms us into His likene...

Pastors Guna kickstarts our new sermon series, 'A Call to Christ-Centrality in Challenging Times', by looking at *Commitment* from John 12:1–8, 23–26. Come hear how commitment in the areas of marriage, ministry, and matters of life, deepens when we grow in our understanding of Christ's commitment to us!

What does it mean to be a covenant community today? How should our church respond to challenging circumstances? Pastor Johanan brings us 'Together in Covenant Renewal' from Acts 2:40-47.  Come and hear what God has in store for Agape Baptist Church!

What do we do with our regrets? The things we shouldn't have - and should have - done? What happens to the wasted years in our lives? In this series finale, Pastor Johanan brings us 'When Barren Longings Have A Future' from Ruth 4. At the end of the story of Ruth, we see the end of our own stories: we are Never Beyond Hope!

What do we do when we’re backed into a corner? Does trusting God mean doing nothing? Does cunning and cleverness have any part in the Christian’s life? Pastor Johanan answers these questions (and more) in 'Taking Risks in the Dark' from Ruth 3. 

Hardly anyone overcomes despair alone. We all need help. We all need favour. But where does favour spring from? And is favour something that is limited? Pastor Johanan unpacks Ruth 2 in the sermon ’Unimaginable Favour’.

Most of us know what despair feels like. It’s surprising how full of despair life can be! The Bible understands how this feels like, how we are inclined to respond to despair, and even proposes an alternate remedy to deal with despair. Pastor Johanan unpacks Ruth 1 in this sermon entitled 'From Despair to Hope'.

Whenever you commit yourself to build your life, family, work, ministry, or witness, and seek to make great the Name of the Lord, you will be opposed. This is what Nehemiah experienced in chapter 4. But the opposition did not stop him from continuing to build. What was Nehemiah’s secret? How do we keep on going when the going gets tough? In this last sermon in the current series, Pastor Guna unpac...

Nehemiah was given new eyes to see old problems and the vision to building amid ruins drove him to pray over his big ask in chapter 1.  In Chapter 2, we will see that Nehemiah did not just pray but as he prayed he also planned. In the Bible, leaders in a crisis did both. This pandemic calls for both earnest praying and careful planning, if we are to build amid ruins.  Discover why prayer...

This sermon is based on Nehemiah 1:1-11. It will focus on Nehemiah's prayer and how his eyes got opened to see the realities that were always there, and how with persistence he made a big ask of God regarding what appeared circumstantially impossible. 

From Colossians 4:2-6, Pastor GL will bring to us an encouraging word on how Singapore on her 55th birthday can receive her greatest gift through us.

In Exodus 32, we learn that the people of Israel turned to idolatry by making a golden calf while Moses was still up on the mountain. In doing so, they turned away from the true worship that the Lord had intended for them. What can we as a covenant community today learn from Israel's history? Through this passage, Pastor GL will reveal to us 4 precious lessons on how we can cultivate a heart of tr...

In Exodus 31, we hear God's commandments to Moses regarding the 2 areas of work and rest for His covenant community.  In this third sermon of the Exodus series, Pastor GL will unpack for us important insights on how worship is critically intertwined with our work and rest.

In Exodus 25:1-9, God instructs Moses to tell His people to build a distinctly unique sanctuary for Him. In this sermon, Pastor GL unpacks for us what this sanctuary represents and what bearing it has for us as a covenant community in worship.

In this sermon based on Exodus 24:1-11, we see the significance of the covenant confirmed with God at Mount Sinai. This text reveals to us 3 things that are especially important for us as a covenant community moving forward in the midst of the pandemic.

Pastor Tze (lead Pastor of One Covenant Church) unpacks Habakkuk 3 and help us understand how to overcome fear through faith which is a trusting surrender to God and his promises.

Most people assume they have an intuitively good understanding of their own needs. But is that assumption true? Through the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13, Jesus helps his disciples to recognise what their deepest needs are. In this last sermon in the four-part series on the Lord's Prayer, Pastor GL unpacks the three needs that must be brought before our Heavenly Father in prayer.

Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. In the Lord's prayer, after Jesus teaches his disciples to ask that they regard God's name as holy, he gives them these two petitions. What significance do these two petitions have for our prayer lives? What effect does praying for God's kingdom and will have on us? Pastor GL draws out three truths to help us understand how prayer...

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Why did Jesus start the Lord's prayer in Matthew 6:9-13 this way? What significance does this verse have for our relationship with God?
