Gospel City Church

Nick Gonyea preached to us on Genesis 20 & 21. It was encouraging to hear about God helped Abraham overcame personal sins and messiness in his life, and how God will help us do the same. We learned about habitual sins and how God can help us overcome them. Hate, starve, corner and overwhelm the sins by Jesus death on the cross.  God will make sure his covenant is fulfilled and therefore,...

Nick led us through the time of teaching. We went through Genesis 19: 1-38. The God who rescues us is the God who blesses with his ultimate gift of salvation. Therefore, we should in turn bless others by sharing this ultimate gift with them. 

Chris Lim from our partner church, New Covenant City Church, preached this morning from Genesis 18:1-33. It was good to be reminded of God’s judgement and mercy. May the bad news of judgement awaken men’s hearts to the good news of God’s mercy through Jesus Christ.

The scripture passage was taken from Isaiah 62, preached by Michael Crane. Michael has been a wonderful partner and friend of GCC, and we are happy for him to join us this morning. Isaiah 62 reminded us that we are called as God’s people, therefore we should intercede for the nations and tell of the good news of Jesus Christ. We thank God that it is He who does the transforming work in the hearts...

Massimo Gei, one of our elders preached from Genesis 17:1-27 which shows us the nature of God who sets us apart, the blessings of people who are set apart and the demands from people who are set apart. As people who has been chosen by God, and blessed by Him with a new identity, may we walk in Him and be part of a covenant community. Praise God who is a covenant maker and keeper!

Andy Dawson, a covenant partner of GCC, preached from Genesis 16:1-16 reminding and encouraging us that waiting is necessary and good for us because it builds our faith. Don’t take things in our own hands but instead trust God in His timing. God sees and hears us in our afflictions so be encouraged and take heart. Though waiting is hard, God is there with us, and sanctifying us.

Massimo Gei, our elder preached from Genesis 15:1-21 about the God who covenants. When we doubt, remember our personal experiences with God and how He has been faithful. Remember that it doesn’t depend on us. Jesus has fulfilled the covenant for us. Therefore, believe. Believe in the promises of God and everything changes.

Nick Gonyea preached from Genesis 13:1 - 14:24. The passage teaches us that God’s promises always come true for His glory, despite of politics, people or disasters that are obstacles to His plan. To the measure we trust the gospel message, to the measure we won’t take matters into our own hands but trust in Him.

Massimo Gei, one of our elders, preached on the first sermon in the new sermon series, “Abraham’s flaws and God’s grace”. Today’s passage is from Genesis 12:1-21, teaching about the God who calls. The promise of the call is a blessing, the demand of the call is faith, the purpose of the call is mission and the success factor of the call is grace. All glory to God!

Nick Gonyea preached on Hope, scripture passage taken from Hebrews 6: 13-20. This passage gave us an example of Christian hope, the guarantee of hope and the anchor for our hope. May we cling on the promises of God and trust in the certain hope that lies before us.

Massimo Gei, one of our elder, preached on “Joy”, the 2nd sermon in this Advent series “Because Jesus came”. The passage was from John 16: 12-24. Christian joy is counter cultural: it is eternally robust, is experienced through sober reflection, and made full through royal access. Only in the presence of God that we can taste full joy.

ManHon, our elder preached from John 13: 34-35 in a sermon titled Love. Because Jesus came, let us be people of love, by the power of the Spirit so that all glory goes to Him. We asked ourselves: How have we previously failed to see the true nature of Christian love? How have we failed to reflect Christ’s love for us to others? How will we now take practical steps to edify and build up other Chris...

Massimo Gei, our elder preached from Genesis 29: 16- 30:1 in a sermon titled: Treasure Hunting. He walked us through how to identify our idols, and why God is our greatest treasure. He is because He treasured and pursued us. Our greatest treasure treasures us. No other treasures on this earth will truly satisfy or last.

Paul Ling preached from 1 Samuel 25 in a sermon titled: Sin and Compromise. For us to reject the counterfeit, we must first treasure the authentic. Nothing is worth trading for the relationship Jesus purchased for us and with us by his blood.

Kyle Essary, our guest speaker preached the last sermon in this series of 1 Corinthians. The passage was from 1 Corinthians 16:1-24. It is a wonderful ending to be reminded to keep the gospel central in all that we do. Joyful obedience won’t come from external pressure. Instead, joyful obedience comes from the freeing knowledge of the gospel. We can sacrifice of our time, finances, and personal de...

Nick Gonyea preached from 1 Corinthians 15: 50-58, reminding us of the wonderful hope we have in Jesus. Jesus brought the imperishable into our perishable world.

He did this to share our lives in the perishing world so that we can share His life in the imperishable new heavens on earth....

Massimo Gei, our elder preached on 1 Corinthians 15: 35-49. It’s so reassuring to know that we will be raise up when Jesus comes, with restored bodies on the new heavens on earth. This truth gives us focus and stewardship while we live in this broken world now, with hope for a restored world to come.

Nick Gonyea preached from 1 Corinthians 15: 12-34, on the consequences if there is no resurrection, the implications of the resurrection and the practical applications into our lives. The resurrection gives us hope in this life to persevere on despite of suffering and hard times, because we know one day this earth will be restored.

Note: This is a recording  GCC's entire 3rd anniversary service. Massimo Gei, one of our elders preached from 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. When we know Jesus personally, who took our place on the cross on our behalf, rose again overcoming sin and death, and we repent and believe , stand in the gospel truths as the epicenter of our lives, hold fast to it, make it the first importance - it will chang...

Kyle Essary preached from 1 Corinthians 12: 12-31, teaching us about unity and diversity in the church. Our gifts are from God. God’s aim in giving us gifts, and in giving us the faith to exercise them, is that his glory might be displayed.

Nick Gonyea preached from 1 Corinthians 12:1-11, reminding us that the spiritual gifts we have are all given by God. We don’t earn them, it’s given to us through grace by God. And God has given us the greatest gift - the gift of faith to believe in Him. The gifts He gave to us are to be used for the common good. To the measure of that we see that all gifts are given by a generous God, that is the...
