Biblical hope is not a wishful thinking or being positive or optimistic. Biblical hope is a determined reality. It’s sure, secure and certain. It’s at the heart of our Christian theology. it’s a key principle to victorious Christian living and more than that, Hope is a Person. Hope is Jesus Christ. He is the anchor that keeps us firm and secure when life becomes rough and tough. Let us listen to t...

Brethren, we’re living in a time and world where we feel shipwrecked in the sea of uncertainty, submerged and overwhelmed by storms and diseases. We’re surrounded by threats and tragedies. People are crying: “Is there any hope?” Our strong answer as a church is: Yes! There is hope , real hope, tangible hope, certain hope! The Bible says that the hope God gives us forms as an anchor for the soul. W...

In this sermon, we celebrate the beauty of marriage as God had designed it. Pastor Mack issues a challenge for husbands and wives, and the singles too, to uphold God's beautiful design and to move forward in obedience.

At the very beginning of the creation of our world, God proclaimed that it is not good for man to be alone, and through Adam He instituted the family as the center of human community. Throughout the historical transitions of a variety of cultures, the family existed as a natural society that provided the soul of each nation and that was to be nourished and protected through fatherhood.  But w...

This is part 2 of our series, Designed in God's Image.  When we talk about womanhood or manhood, we are not just talking about differences in sexes or gender and feminism and masculinity. Understanding the true and biblical essence womanhood or manhood is very crucial because it affects our understanding about God, our sexuality, about marriage, our children, our society, our church and the w...

This Sunday, we are going back to the earliest days of mankind to see what God had in His heart and mind upon creating Man and Woman. This is Part 1 of our month-long series titled, "Designed in God's Name".

Let's hear from our guest speaker Mr. Allan James Canama on the subject of God's wrath and what it means for us and the people we love.

When this man spoke to Jesus, he walked away sad and devastated. Why? Let's study the life and conversation between Jesus and the Man who almost entered heaven.

This Mother's Day, we listen in on the encounter of Jesus and a desperate mother, whose persistence and faith amazed our Savior.

Maybe there are some of us here today who need some healing. Maybe you are in despair because of a seemingly hopeless situation.  Or maybe you need your life to be radically changed. That transformation can happen, if you can receive a touch that heals from our Lord Jesus Christ. Let us meet the woman who experienced this as Jesus changed her life.

"𝙇𝙤𝙧𝙙, 𝙄 𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙫𝙚 - 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥 𝙢𝙮 𝙪𝙣𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙛!" We continue our series Who’s Your One.  In this series, we’ve been studying different individuals whom Jesus met and touched, healed and saved. In this sermon, we are going to see a desperate father and his demon-possessed boy and see the role of faith in the healing of this boy.

So many people today are suffering from oppression and possession. Whether their condition is mental, physical or spiritual, such conditions are devastating and life-threatening. Some of these oppressions are due to life’s hang ups, traumatic experiences, overwhelming problems, sin, addictions, or even demon-possession. But the good news is this: Jesus has the power to set us free from ALL these o...

In this sermon, we dive deeper into Peter's Denial and what it means for us today.

We are saved by faith. Faith is the condition to salvation.    “Everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life,” (John 6:40​) “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” (Acts 16:31​) “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God,” (Ephesians 2:8) --- But not all fait...

As we continue with our Who's Your One Campaign - we hear another story. Most of Jesus’ Ones were the irreligious, the lost and outcasts of society.  The gospel always goes to those who are unworthy and far from righteousness: tax collectors, adulterers, prostitutes, Gentiles, irreligious people. But today we are going to see one religious man coming to Christ. One Pharisee in the four Gospel...

In this sermon, we meet a woman at the well going about her daily routine. This ordinary, nameless woman, part of an outcast people, will meet the Name above All Names. She will have a conversation with Jesus and her life will never be the same again.

Today's sermon might be a very popular children’s Bible story, but it’s a lot more than that. It reveals the very heart of God: the One who pursues each one of us to draw us into a loving personal relationship with Him, and in so doing, to change our entire life for the better. As we walk through the story of this “wee little man Zacchy,” let’s consider our own spiritual journey, and the One you a...

Who’s your one? Imagine if every Christian could answer this question with the name of a person they’re praying for and seeking to share the gospel with.   Today, we’re launching a new campaign about personal evangelism, and this year we’ll each commit to pray for and invest in one person in need of the gospel.   Just one!  Follow our social media accounts for daily update...

Let's talk about Hell. “Be merciful to those who doubt; save others by snatching them from the fire;” Jude 1:22-23 NIV We're looking at the story narrated by Jesus in Luke 16; a tale of two people who led two different lives and ended up in very different places in the afterlife. We'll see why we share the gospel to the people we love - because we want them to love and worship the God we love - bu...

To love and to be loved - it is indeed part of being human. For many people, it is a search, and when they find the one they love they are overjoyed. The Bible tells us that the Lord is also searching for His lost loves - people lost in sin and wandering far away from Him. In Luke 15, Jesus gave His eager crowd a glimpse of what goes on in Heaven when Godfinds the Ones He Love. Let's celebrate God...

God is working on your behalf, even though His plans for you take time. My prayer for you is that you’ll learn to anticipate His answer—no matter how long it takes—and to do so faithfully, patiently, and joyfully. You’ve invested so much time, energy, prayer, and confidence into waiting for Him, it would be a shame for you to abandon your hope now … especially when you’re on the brink of blessing...

One of the most difficult lessons in life is waiting. Whether it's waiting for the right person, waiting for a promotion, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for healing to happen, waiting for a child, etc., no one likes waiting and delays. If the waiting process is discouraging you, if you’ve waited for the Lord to fulfill His promise to you and you wonder why God has allowed such a long wait in...

Your Best Life: Is it now or later? God does promise a best life. Absolutely! A full, rich, satisfying, trouble-free life of health and wealth and success and absolute joy and peace and perfection, but not now. In fact, quite on the other hand, our Lord has promised, to those who seek Him and love Him in this life, trouble, persecution, rejection, difficulty, trials, temptation, pain, suffering, s...
