Wisdom is often thought of as making the right decision when it really matters. But in Proverbs, wisdom starts from a different place. Before asking, "what should I do?", it asks, "who am I becoming?" In this message from Proverbs 3, Abel begins a three-part series exploring biblical wisdom as formation, not just information. Our habits, trust, humility, and daily practices quietly shape our chara...

Isaiah 40:1–11

In this talk, we look at the last chapter of Ruth in light of legacy. Legacy is like planting seeds in a garden we will never get to see bloom but the good news is we get to plant seeds today that will grow and flourish long after we’re gone. As we look at the story of Ruth and Boaz, we see some ways in which we can plant seeds of true and lasting legacy. Just as Boaz redeemed Ruth, Jesus is our k...

Ephe...

In the last part of our Marks of Maturity series, we explore how Paul in Colossians 3 speaks a message of hope about how we can both be born again and grow up (again) in Christ. Colossians 3:9-17

In this sermon, Abel speaks about the marks of spiritual maturity in the Christian life, drawing from Romans 12. Drawing from Paul’s call to be transformed by the renewing of our minds, he explores how maturity is not measured by age, knowledge, or giftedness, but by truth, grace and humility. In an increasingly polarised world, how do we grow into Christlike maturity and shine His light in the da...

Exodus 17:8-16

In this sermon, Abel unpacks 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 to show why thanksgiving is at the very heart of Christian prayer. Gratitude isn’t just a response when life goes well — it’s God’s will for us, the root of lasting joy, and a posture that carries us through every circumstance. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Jacintha continues the sermon series on How to Pray by speaking on Confession and how it plays a role in our prayer lives. Based on Psalm 51, our confession takes the form of a confession of failure, as well as a confession of faith.

Kicking off our 4-part series, “How to Pray”, Mark explores the vision in Revelation 4, which shows us the true nature of prayer: an invitation to live in God’s presence, and to join an unending chorus of adoration. Revelation 4:2, 4, 6b-11

What does it really mean to be free? “Freedom” is a word that stirs our imagination, but is it more than just breaking chains?

Galatians 5:1–16

On Merdeka we celebrate national freedom. But in Christ, we experience a greater freedom: freedom to worship, to love, and to open doors for others. In this message, Tonyong reflects on the story of Paul and Silas in prison and reveals what true freedom in Christ looks like today. Acts 16:25-34

In this sermon, Jacintha speaks about how you may step into your calling using the story of Esther. Esther found herself in a context that confronted her, and through the courage she found from within her community and a God who calls us, Esther was then able to step into her calling. Esther 4:8-17
