City Harvest Church Weekend Sermons

In a world filled with uncertainty, rising pressures, and personal struggles, Jesus’ words in Matthew 6 remain deeply relevant: “Do not worry.”  Worry often comes from misplaced trust and the desire to control what only God can hold. Instead of being ruled by anxiety, we are invited to return to God as our Source, surrender our burdens to Him, and know how deeply He cares for us. As we reflect and...

In Part 3 of Passion for God, Pastor Bobby Chaw continues to encourage us to love people fervently, and we can practically do so by cultivating purity and honesty in our relationships with others.

In this final part of The Path to Perfection: Discovering the True Self, Pastor Kong Hee reminds us that our true identity is found in God alone, and that we were never created to live independently of Him. To experience the fullness of life God intends, we must surrender the false self and embrace our true self in Christ. He concludes the series by sharing four ways we can live out our true self...

In Part 6 of The Path to Perfection, Pastor Kong Hee explores the sixth step in the way of perfection: Spiritual Sustenance—Living by the Spirit. He teaches that spiritual growth is not sustained by human effort alone but through an ongoing relationship with the Holy Spirit. In this sermon, he shares four simple ways to cultivate deeper communion with the Holy Spirit, enabling believers to remain...

“When we get to heaven, we’ll know why”—this is something we often say when we cannot make sense of life’s difficulties. While we may not always understand the challenges, we must remember that faithfulness and obedience matter to God. Faithfulness is seen in the ordinary routines of life and tested in the midst of storms. Psalm 84:6 reminds us that even our pain can one day become a spring that w...

Ezekiel 36:26–27 tells us that God gives us a new heart and puts His Spirit within us, empowering us to follow His ways and obey His commands. In this sermon, Pastor Bobby Chaw references the fifth and sixth commandments, highlighting two areas in which the Holy Spirit is drawing our hearts towards God—and how we should respond: honouring others above ourselves and being patient with others.

Ezekiel 36:26–27 says that God gives us a new heart and puts His Spirit within us to move us to follow and obey Him. In this sermon, Pastor Bobby Chaw references the first four of the Ten Commandments and shares four areas in which the Holy Spirit is moving our hearts towards God—and how we must respond.

Why is loyalty so important in the Kingdom of God? Drawing from 1 Corinthians 4:2, this message explores how faithfulness is required of every steward of God. Loyalty protects the unity, peace, and strength of the church, while disloyalty from within can slowly weaken it. Let us be aware of the subtle attitudes that may lead a person down the path of Judas—offence, passivity, criticism, rebellion;...

Why do people walk away from where God has placed them? Drawing from Luke 15 and the story of the prodigal son, this message explores the dangers of leaving the spiritual family God has given us. Disconnection begins gradually through deception, pride, ungratefulness, selfishness, greed, or offence. When we fail to value where we belong, we may eventually find ourselves spiritually empty and broke...

In Part 5 of The Path to Perfection, Pastor Kong Hee shares on the fifth step in the way of perfection: forgiveness—the healing of the heart. He explains what forgiveness is and is not, and, drawing from Timothy Keller, highlights three dimensions of forgiveness, showing how growth in one dimension inevitably affects the others. Forgiveness draws us into deeper union with God.

Preaching from the book of Philemon, Prof Byron Klaus reminds us that the Gospel is a living drama that transforms people, relationships, and communities. Through Onesimus, a runaway slave who encountered Christ, we see the power of salvation to restore dignity, redeem brokenness, and rewrite a life’s story. Once considered “useless”, he was redeemed, called “useful”, and became a beloved brother,...

Preaching from Lamentations 3, Prof Frank Macchia reminds us that even amid the devastation of Jerusalem’s fall, God’s mercies never ceased towards His people. When all hope seemed lost, His compassion remained new every morning.  Because God is love, He cannot cease loving. So Jesus forever altered His existence and took on flesh in order to reconcile humanity to God. He entered into the depths o...

After the crucifixion, the disciples were disillusioned and drifting back to what was familiar. Likewise, when we lose sight of God’s future, we often return to our past. In John 21, Peter finds that Jesus had prepared breakfast for them over a charcoal fire. The first mention of charcoal fire was when Peter denied Jesus three times in John 18. Here, Jesus meets him not with judgment, but grace—re...

In Part 4 of The Path to Perfection, Pastor Kong Hee introduces the fourth step in the way of perfection—prayer as communion with God. He outlines three key insights about prayer, focusing on “centring prayer,” which involves learning to rest in the presence of God, allowing the Holy Spirit to draw us into deeper union with the Father.

In this short Easter message, Pastor Kong Hee shares the story of a sous-chef who steals a slab of beef from his workplace but is later forgiven of his debt, experiencing real freedom as the weight of guilt is lifted and his sense of peace is restored.

The clearest summary of Jesus' ministry is given in Acts 10:38: "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him." With three simple points—and powerful testimonies—Pastor Kong Hee shares:  1.⁠ ⁠Jesus sees YOU. 2.⁠ ⁠Jesus sees YOUR FAITH.  3.⁠ ⁠Jesus s...

In Mark 10:46–50, the story of the blind beggar reflects our own helplessness and need for God's grace and mercy. Though he was hindered and opposed by those around him, he chose to seek the Giver, and not simply what Jesus could offer him. He knew that Jesus was the Son of God because someone told him. Like so, we are called to share the truth of the gospel to the lost, and care enough to br...

Life is a journey with eternal consequences—hell is real, and salvation is God’s gift through Christ. The question is not only where we are going, but who we are bringing with us. Every talent is God-given and must be stewarded well. Drawing from David’s counsel to Solomon in 1 Kings 2, we are called to be thankful, faithful, and careful—guarding our gratitude, protecting our testimony and family,...

In Part 3 of The Path to Perfection, Pastor Kong Hee introduces the third step in the way of perfection—detachment, the true freedom of the heart—and shows how it can be practised. Spiritual perfection is impossible without this interior freedom.

In Part 2 of The Path to Perfection, Pastor Kong Hee introduces the second step in the way of perfection: humility—the surrender of the ego. He shares four practical ways we can practise humility, reminding us that without humility there can be no real spiritual growth.

In Part 1 of this new series, The Path to Perfection, Pastor Kong Hee reminds us that spiritual maturity doesn’t happen by accident—it is a path, a process, a journey with God. John Wesley, founder of the Methodist movement, taught that the path to spiritual perfection is ultimately the path of love. The goal of the Christian life is not performance, but growing ever deeper in God’s love.

In this sermon, Pastor Bobby Chaw shares lessons from the almond tree—the first fruit tree in Israel to bloom, yet among the last to bear fruit. Drawing from the examples of Prophet Jeremiah and Aaron’s rod that budded, he encourages us to trust God’s perfect timing. Sometimes His promises take time, requiring patient eagerness and eager patience; other times, He works instant miracles!

Examine your walk with Jesus through these four searching questions: Are you walking the path of the crowd or the path of a true disciple? Are you living a life of self-denial? Are you ready to take up your cross? Are you truly following Jesus? True discipleship calls for surrender, sacrifice, and wholehearted obedience. Let's choose the way of the disciple today and follow Christ with a life...

The power of the Cross is the foundation of our Christian faith and victory. The Cross has the power of salvation, bringing forgiveness through the blood of Jesus. It has the power of healing, able to restore physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual brokenness. Finally, the Cross has the power to defeat the devil, declaring Christ's triumph over sin and darkness. As followers of Christ, may...
