Breaking Dawn #12: When Faith is Shaken // Isaiah 36-37 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 17:00:00 +0800

There are moments when our faith feels steady, and moments when questions, fears, circumstances, or even other people's words make us wonder if God can really be trusted.

In Isaiah 36-37, Judah faced a powerful enemy determined to shake their confidence in God. Instead of giving in to fear, King Hezekiah brought the situation before the Lord and trusted Him to act.

This message reminds us that God is not threatened by our doubts or our circumstances. He is still at work, still faithful to His promises, and still worthy of our trust. When our faith is shaken, we can look to Him and remember that He has always been trustworthy.

God-Honoring Families // 1 Peter 3:1-12 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 02 Jun 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Family relationships can bring some of life's greatest joys, but they can also be the source of some of our deepest frustrations.

In this message, we look at God's design for husbands, wives, parents, and children, and how healthy families are built when each person takes responsibility for their role. Along the way, we're reminded that no family is perfect, but with God's help, we can learn to show compassion, speak with grace, seek peace, and grow together.

Marked Safe // Psalm 91:1-16 // Rev. JP Lim

Tue, 26 May 2026 17:00:00 +0800

We spend so much of life trying to feel secure, planning ahead, preparing for worst-case scenarios, trying to stay in control. But even with all our precautions, fear and uncertainty still find their way in.

Psalm 91 reminds us that genuine security is not found in a trouble-free life, but in the presence of God. His protection is not distant or occasional. He is near, faithful, and present even in the middle of the battles we cannot control.

This message is a reminder that peace does not always come from knowing everything will work out exactly the way we want, but from knowing we do not walk through life alone.

When the Strong Get Tired // 1 Kings 19:1-21 // Rev. Victor Ramoy

Tue, 19 May 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes the hardest part of life is not one big problem, but the constant weight of responsibilities, pressure, disappointment, and trying to keep going when you’re already tired.

In 1 Kings 19, even Elijah, a faithful prophet of God, reached a point where he felt exhausted, discouraged, and overwhelmed. But instead of condemning him, God met him with compassion, rest, truth, and strength.

This message is a reminder that even strong people get tired, and that God is not absent in those moments. He sees, restores, and walks with us through them.

This One was Born in Zion // Psalm 87 // Dr. Steven Guest

Tue, 12 May 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Psalm 87 gives a beautiful picture of the kind of people God is building, people from every background, every nation, every story, brought together by His grace. It reminds us that no one is too far from God, and that His mission is bigger than we often realize. It also challenges us to see the people around us differently, not as interruptions or strangers, but as people deeply known and pursued by Him.

This message is a timely reminder that we’re not just living for the present, but for a coming day when people from every nation will worship together before God.

Breaking Dawn #11: Expect the Unexpected // Isaiah 32:9-20 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 05 May 2026 17:00:00 +0800

It’s easy to assume that what we have today will always be there tomorrow. Stability can quietly turn into complacency, and before we know it, God is no longer at the center, only someone we turn to when things go wrong.

This message is a needed reminder that life can change faster than we expect. We are called not to live in fear, but to live awake, prepared, and grounded in something deeper than our circumstances.

As we face uncertainty, the question is not just how ready we are for change, but who we are holding on to when it comes.

Watch the full sermon and reflect on what it means to trust a God who never changes, even when everything else does.

Breaking Dawn #10: Best of the Best // Isaiah 25:1-26:4 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 17:00:00 +0800

God doesn’t just provide enough, He provides the best of the best.

This week's passage shows us a picture of what God gives to those who trust Him: complete protection, abundant provision, salvation and eternal life, and perfect peace. It’s a reminder that our view of God is often too small. We tend to see Him through what we lack or struggle with right now, but Scripture pulls us into something much bigger, what He is already preparing, and what He has already secured for those who belong to Him.

This message invites us to rethink where we place our trust, especially when life feels uncertain or overwhelming.

The Rapture: Hoax, Hype, or Hope? // 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 // Dr. Jeff Kinley

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 17:00:00 +0800

There’s no shortage of bad news in the world, and it can leave you feeling unsettled about what’s ahead. But the Bible points us to something steady, a future that is secure, and a hope that isn’t based on circumstances. This message unpacks what Scripture says about the rapture and why it was meant to bring clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of purpose for how we live today.

Breaking Dawn #9: There Will Be a Day // Isaiah 14:1-27 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 17:00:00 +0800

We don’t often think about eternity in our everyday decisions, but it quietly shapes what really matters.

This message reminds us that there will be a day when God makes things right, when every life moves toward its eternal destination, when pride is brought low, and when His plans fully unfold. It’s both comforting and sobering, especially for the things that feel unfair, uncertain, or out of our control.

Sometimes we just need to pause and remember, what we’re living for now will echo far beyond today.

The Other Mary // Matthew 27; Mark 15-16; Luke 8; John 19-20 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 17:00:00 +0800

While others walked away, Mary Magdalene stayed. At the cross, at the tomb, and in her grief, she kept seeking Jesus, and in that seeking, she encountered the risen Lord.

Her story shows what a transformed life looks like. It serves, it stays, it seeks, and it shares what it has seen.

The resurrection doesn’t only change what we believe. It changes how we live.

Don't Miss the Moment // John 12:1-8 // Min. Kenneth Sy

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Some moments carry more weight than others, and you don’t always get them twice.

In John 12, Mary responds to Jesus with a kind of devotion that is costly, personal, and immediate. In the same room, someone else sounds spiritual but completely misses what matters most. It is a quiet but honest picture of how easy it is to look devoted while holding back the heart.

This message is a reminder to slow down and ask what our devotion is really centered on, and whether we are responding to God when it matters, not later, not someday, but now.

Breaking Dawn #8: Everlasting Praise // Isaiah 12:1-6 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 17:00:00 +0800

One day, we’ll stand before God and praise Him fully. But we don’t have to wait to start praising Him. Not when His grace is already at work, His salvation is already present, His goodness is already around us, and His greatness is already over everything we face.

Breaking Dawn #7: Reign of the King // Isaiah 11:1-16 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 17:00:00 +0800

We live in a world where trust is hard to give. Leaders disappoint, systems feel unfair, and peace can feel fragile.

Isaiah 11 paints a very different picture: a King who understands completely, judges rightly, protects fully, and makes a way for everyone to come near. Not distant, not biased, not uncertain. A ruler who sees clearly and leads well.

This message walks through what Jesus' future reign will look like, and why that actually matters for how we live today. Because if this is the kind of King He is, then trusting Him isn’t blind, it’s reasonable.

Breaking Dawn #6: Stay Focused! // Isaiah 8:1–9:7 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 10 Mar 2026 17:00:00 +0800

When pressure rises, it becomes easy to listen to the loudest voices or look for security in things that cannot truly hold us.

Isaiah 8–9 brings us back to a different starting point. Instead of reacting to the noise around us, we are invited to refocus on who God is, return to His Word for guidance, and remember that the light of Christ still pierces the darkest moments. When we see God clearly again, fear loses its grip and lasting joy comes back into view.

This message is a reminder that even when the world feels chaotic, God’s promises are steady, and His victory is never in doubt.

Breaking Dawn #5: Trust in God Alone // Isaiah 7:1-25 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Fear has a way of making threats look bigger than they really are, but God’s power surpasses every threat and His presence changes how we face them. This sermon walks through what it means to trust God when people disappoint you, when alliances shift, and when quick solutions seem more practical than faith. It reminds us that real security is not found in strategies or strong personalities, but in the unchanging character of God. If you’ve been carrying worry, this message helps you see your situation in a different light and invites you to anchor your trust where it will not collapse.

Life's Greatest Asset // Proverbs 3:13-26 // Rev. JP Lim

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0800

We live in a world that is loud with information, yet it's still remarkably easy to feel stuck or restless. It turns out that having all the information in the world does not actually give us a steady heart or a clear path forward.

This message looks at why wisdom is the single most valuable thing we can pursue. It is not just a luxury for a few people; it is the actual operating system for how life was designed to work. When we stop chasing the next quick fix and start aligning our daily choices with God's blueprint, we begin to experience something deeper than success, real peace, steady confidence, and clarity in the middle of uncertainty.

If you have ever felt restless despite having enough, or unsure despite having options, this message is for you.

Interview with a Man in Hell // Luke 16:19-31 // Dr. David Dean

Tue, 17 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0800

In Luke 16:19-31, Jesus tells a story that unsettles our assumptions. A rich man who seemed blessed in life ends up in torment; a poor beggar who suffered ends up in comfort. The contrast forces us to ask hard questions about what really matters and what lasts.

This message walks through the reality of eternity, the limits of miracles, and the urgency of responding to God’s Word while we still can. It is sobering, but it is also clarifying. It reminds us that comfort is not the same as security, and that knowing Scripture is not the same as trusting Christ.

Breaking Dawn #4: Please Use Me // Isaiah 6:1-13 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 10 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Serving God can be tiring when our motives get mixed up or when our hearts drift. Isaiah’s encounter with God reminds us that lasting, faithful service starts with being with Him first, offering ourselves willingly, and staying obedient even when fruit seems unseen.

Breaking Dawn #3: Tipping Point // Isaiah 5:1-30 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 03 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0800

God doesn’t give rules to limit our joy, but to help us flourish. This sermon explores why God disciplines, what it shows about His heart, and how we can stay connected to the life He provides, so our lives produce lasting fruit.

When Life Gets Busy // Luke 10:38-42 // Rev. Victor Ramoy

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Busyness can make life look productive while slowly draining what matters most. In Luke 10, Jesus reminds us that service is good, but listening comes first. This message reflects on how hurried lives reshape our hearts, our worship, and our relationships, and why choosing to slow down with Jesus is not a loss, but an act of trust. Sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is pause and listen before we act.

Breaking Dawn #2: The Humbling // Isaiah 2-4 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 20 Jan 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Pride rarely announces itself. Sometimes it looks like comfort, success, or feeling like we’ve got things under control.

This message reminds us of a quieter truth: we are limited, replaceable, and ordinary, and that’s not bad news. It’s an invitation to depend on a God who is truly powerful, steady, and present.

There’s freedom in letting go of self-sufficiency and rediscovering humility as the place where grace grows.

Breaking Dawn #1: Our Problem, God's Solution // Isaiah 1:1-31 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes our faith and our hearts drift without us noticing. Isaiah 1 challenges this by showing how God sees beyond the surface—beyond empty rituals and outward appearances—and calls us to real change, justice, and care for others. The message points to God’s grace that doesn’t just forgive but restores and reshapes the way we live.

Action Items // Ecclesiastes 3:1-5 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 06 Jan 2026 17:00:00 +0800

Life rarely goes according to plan, and trying to force outcomes often leaves us frustrated. This message reminds us that God is in control and His timing is perfect, and it challenges us to cultivate the right attitude through four action steps that help us find purpose, steady our hearts, and see life from a perspective that goes beyond the ups and downs.

Beyond the Recap // Philippians 3:12-16 // Min. Kenneth Sy

Tue, 30 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0800

As the year comes to a close, it’s tempting to replay the past or rush into new goals. This message from Philippians 3 invites us into something deeper, a humble, intentional way of moving forward with Christ. It reminds us that growth is ongoing, grace-filled, and not a competition.

A Reason to Celebrate // Luke 2:8-20; Matthew 2:9-11 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 23 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Christmas reminds us why joy is possible, even when life feels uncertain. A Savior has come, not someday, but today. And those who seek God are never seeking in vain. This message reflects on a joy that is steady, resilient, and deeply rooted in Christ, a joy that can exist alongside questions, waiting, and even tears. May it reframe how you see celebration, faith, and hope in every season.

Still Waters Run Deep // Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 2:17-40 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 16 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0800

We often notice the noise of the Christmas story, the angels, the songs, the celebrations. But Scripture also points us to quieter lives marked by obedience, reflection, and long, hopeful waiting. This message looks at Joseph, Mary, Simeon, and Anna, and how God shapes deep character in hidden places. It’s a reminder that depth is formed not by being seen, but by trusting God enough to obey, slow down, and wait with hope.

To Be Happy // Matthew 5:1-12 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 09 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Happiness isn’t about having more or getting everything right. It grows in hearts that trust God, show mercy, seek righteousness, and choose peace even when life is messy. This message reflects on the Beatitudes and how Jesus flips the world’s idea of happiness, showing us that real joy comes from living with God at the center of our lives.

Shrewd for the Master // Luke 16:1-15 // Rev. JP Lim

Tue, 02 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Money shapes us more than we think. It pushes our priorities, reveals what we trust, and quietly trains our hearts. But Jesus reminds us that money is meant to be a tool, not a master. His challenge in Luke 16 is simple but stretching: use what you have in ways that matter beyond this life.

This message walks through how we can steward our resources with intention, build relationships that last into eternity, and aim our generosity toward what outlives us. It is a reminder that even small acts of faithfulness can plant seeds God uses in ways we may never fully see now.

I Want More!!! // Ecclesiastes 5:8-20 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 17:00:00 +0800

We live in a world that says, “Just get more—then you’ll be happy.” We live pressured, anxious lives chasing things that can’t give true satisfaction and lasting peace.

This message reminds us that life was never meant to revolve around grasping for more, but around seeking the One who satisfies. Pursuing Jesus—not possessions—leads to true joy.

Keeping Pride in Check // 1 Peter 5:5-11 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Pride has a way of slipping into our lives before we even notice it. This week’s message reminds us that real humility is not about shrinking back but learning to trust God’s timing, leaning on His help, rejecting the lies that inflate our ego, and remembering that every good thing comes from Him.

It is a grounding reminder for anyone who wants to live with more peace, clarity, and purpose.

Forgotten by Man, Remembered by God // Genesis 40:1-23 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 11 Nov 2025 17:00:00 +0800

We all like to be remembered. Whether it’s for something we did, the help we gave, or the kindness we showed—it feels good to know it mattered. But what happens when people forget?

This message reminds us that even when others overlook the good we’ve done, God never does. His memory is perfect, His recognition eternal, and His love unwavering. When we root our worth in being remembered by Him, we find peace that no human approval can match.

Living in the Abundance of God’s Blessings // Rev. Jonathan Banzuelo

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes we think of blessing as something we receive when life goes smoothly. But God’s blessings go far deeper than that. They show up even in hard seasons—through His presence, His purpose, His quiet work in our hearts, and His call for us to bless others. This message reminds us that lasting joy isn’t about getting everything we want, but growing closer to the One who never withholds what we truly need.

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses // Luke 5:1-11 // Rev. Victor Ramoy

Tue, 28 Oct 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes we tell ourselves we’re just waiting for the right time, but maybe we’re really waiting to feel ready, worthy, or sure. In Luke 5, Peter obeyed Jesus’ word even when everything in him said it didn’t make sense. That one act of obedience didn’t just bring a miracle; it changed his life. This message reminds us that the perfect time rarely comes, but God moves when we trust Him beyond our comfort and say yes, even with trembling hands.

Follow Me // Matthew 4:17-25 // Rev. Tony Yeo

Tue, 21 Oct 2025 17:00:00 +0800

The call to follow Jesus isn’t just an invitation to believe. It’s an invitation to be changed. When we say “yes” to Him, He begins to reshape our hearts, reorder our priorities, and draw us into His mission to bring hope and healing to others.

Millions in Mites // Mark 12:41-44 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 14 Oct 2025 17:00:00 +0800

True giving isn’t about the amount, but the heart behind it. When we give with humility, intention, and joy, we reflect who God is and how much we trust Him. The widow’s quiet offering in Mark 12:41–44 reminds us that giving is more than an obligation—it’s an act of worship that draws us closer to God and allows us to take part in His work in the world.

Life Is... // Luke 12:13-21 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 17:00:00 +0800

We live in a world that tells us more is better, but Jesus reminds us that real life isn’t measured by what we own. Wealth can be a tool, but it can also quietly shape our hearts and priorities. This message invites us to examine where our security truly lies and to invest in what lasts.

Trust the Text // 2 Timothy 3:16 // Dr. Mark Yarbrough

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes our faith feels like glowing coals buried under ashes—still alive, but faint. This message is a reminder that our spiritual fire can be rekindled when we return to the basics: bold trust in God’s Word. Scripture isn’t just ancient text; it’s God’s breath in written form, shaping us, giving us clarity, and equipping us for every good work.

God's Amazing Grace // Ephesians 2:7-9 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 23 Sep 2025 17:00:00 +0800

We often forget how much of life is a gift. God’s grace is not only free, it’s also deeply satisfying and never-ending. When we see life through that lens, comparison loses its power, gratitude takes root, and we find the courage to live with greater purpose.

No Greater Joy // 3 John 1:4 // Dr. Jay Sedwick

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 17:01:43 +0800

It’s been said that parenting is the hardest work you’ll ever do, but also the most rewarding. This message reminds us that the home is the first classroom of faith and love, and that our influence—whether as parents, mentors, or friends—shapes how the next generation sees God.

Strike Them Now // Habakkuk 1:1-11 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 09 Sep 2025 17:00:00 +0800

When life feels unfair and evil seems to get away unchecked, it’s easy to wonder where God is in all of it. Habakkuk wrestled with those same questions, and God’s response was both unexpected and reassuring. This message shows us why trusting God’s wisdom and justice--though often beyond our understanding--can bring peace and hope even when the world feels upside down.

Complaining About Blessings // Numbers 11:1-34 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 02 Sep 2025 17:00:00 +0800

It’s easy to slip into complaining, especially in a culture used to comfort and convenience. But it often does more harm than we realize. The Israelites’ story reminds us how grumbling distorts reality, spreads negativity, and leaves us dissatisfied. Learning to shift toward gratitude can open our eyes to God’s goodness and help us experience joy no matter the circumstances.

Offer Your Bodies: A Missing Link to Spirituality // Romans 12:1-2; Matthew 26:31-45 // Dr. Timoteo Gener

Tue, 26 Aug 2025 17:00:00 +0800

We often think of spirituality as something that happens only in the heart or mind. But the Bible reminds us that true transformation touches every part of who we are—including our bodies. This message explores how our daily habits, reactions, and even physical routines can either hold us back or help us grow. And through practices like prayer, fasting, and service, God can retrain us to live in step with Him.

No to Entitlement // Luke 17:11-19 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 19 Aug 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Entitlement can creep into our hearts so subtly that we don’t even notice it. We start believing we’re owed recognition, blessings, or special treatment. But Jesus shows us a different way—the way of humility and gratitude. This message from Luke 17 reminds us how small words like “please,” “thank you,” and “I’m sorry” can transform our hearts, our relationships, and even our generation.

The Value of a Friend // Ecclesiastes 4:4-16 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Loneliness doesn’t always look like being alone. You can be surrounded by people and still feel unseen, unheard, unknown. We all long for friendships that are real, deep, and lasting—because that’s how God designed us. In this message from Ecclesiastes 4:4-16, we explore what makes friendships worth keeping, how to build ones that last, and the difference they can make when life gets hard.

Hope in the Waiting // Psalm 130:1-8 // Min. Kenneth Sy

Tue, 05 Aug 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Waiting can feel like the hardest part, especially when there’s no clear end in sight. But what if hope isn’t just something you find after the waiting is over? What if it’s something God wants to grow in you while you wait? This message from Psalm 130 walks through the kind of hope that doesn’t ignore the pain, but anchors you through it with honesty, grace, and deep trust in God’s promises.

Vengeance is Mine // Judges 15:1-20; Romans 12:17-21 // Rev. JP Lim

Tue, 29 Jul 2025 17:00:00 +0800

When someone wrongs us, it’s so easy to feel that payback is the only way to make things right. But have you noticed how revenge rarely fixes anything? It just keeps the hurt alive. What if there’s a better way to respond? A way that leads to peace instead of payback?

A Wake-Up Call // Acts 5:1-11 // Rev. Victor Ramoy

Tue, 22 Jul 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes it takes a wake-up call to remind us what really matters. When we get caught up in appearances, when applause feels more satisfying than obedience, or when small compromises feel harmless, it’s easy to forget what’s at stake. But God’s wake-up calls aren’t meant to scare us. They’re His way of calling us back before it’s too late. What if He’s been sending you one all along?

Humility to Obey // Philippians 2:5-11 // Dr. Neil Ty

Tue, 15 Jul 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Ever notice how hard it is to obey when it means letting go of your own plans, status, or comfort? This message is a reminder that following Jesus isn’t about clinging to our own importance. It’s about emptying ourselves like He did. True humility is the doorway to obedience…and to being used by God in ways we never imagined.

A God-Kind of Change // Deuteronomy 10:12–22 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 08 Jul 2025 17:00:00 +0800

What we believe about God should change how we live. His majesty calls us to honor Him in every part of our lives. His love moves us to love the people He loves. His faithfulness invites us to trust Him—even in seasons of uncertainty. Deuteronomy 10:12–22 reminds us of who God is so that what we know about Him moves from head knowledge to heart transformation.

Loving the Unlovable // Hosea 3:1-5 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 01 Jul 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Loving the unlovable isn’t natural, but it is possible. Through the story of Hosea and Gomer, we’re reminded that God's love doesn’t give up, even when we do, because it is a love that is unconditional, sacrificial, and transformational. And when we truly experience that kind of love? It gives us the strength to love even those who’ve hurt us.

True Success // Colossians 3:1-17 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 24 Jun 2025 17:00:00 +0800

What if success isn’t about how far you get in life, but who you’re becoming along the way? In a world that tells us to chase status, wealth, and recognition, God invites us to a different kind of success—one shaped by character, peace, thankfulness, purpose, and faithfulness. This message helps us re-center on what truly matters and reminds us that we’re not defined by the world’s standards, but by God’s.

Awakening // Genesis 5:21-24 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 17 Jun 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Ever felt like life was nudging you to wake up and live differently? Sometimes it’s a new responsibility. Sometimes it’s a crisis. But often, it’s that quiet realization that you were made for more—that your life speaks, whether you realize it or not. What does it mean to live with purpose, walk closely with God, and make your life count in ways that truly matter?

Fulfill // Colossians 4:17 // Rev. Eyriche Cortez

Tue, 10 Jun 2025 17:00:00 +0800

You were made to play a part in something bigger than yourself—and it starts right where you are. God has entrusted every believer with something meaningful—something that can make a real difference in everyday life, not just in church. Your talents, gifts, skills… even your life story, including past mistakes, are all part of how He can use you to serve others and point them to Him. This message unpacks how to discover what that looks like, how to stay faithful even when no one’s watching, and why your story (yes, even the messy parts) still matters.

Lessons from Little Ones // Mark 10:13-16 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 03 Jun 2025 17:00:00 +0800

Sometimes we make faith harder than it needs to be—like we have to earn our way in or have everything figured out. But in Mark 10:13–16, Jesus reminds us that what He’s looking for is something much simpler: childlike trust. This message is a gentle reminder that you’re never too far, too flawed, or too late to come to Jesus. His arms are always open to anyone who comes with a heart ready to receive the grace He freely gives.

Ready #13: A Help or a Burden // 2 Thessalonians 3:6-18 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Tue, 27 May 2025 19:18:50 +0800

I Can, But Should I? // 1 Corinthians 8:1-13, 10:23-33 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Sun, 19 Nov 2023 15:12:00 +0800

For many followers of Jesus, the freedom we have in Christ is synonymous with the ability to make our own decisions and choose our own path in life and to do whatever we want, whenever we want. But Scripture reminds us that “All things are permitted, but not all things are of benefit. All things are permitted, but not all things build people up.” (1 Corinthians 10:23, NASB). We know that in matters of biblical truth, there can be no compromise. But how do we navigate the gray areas?

But because God is also holy, it means that while we can never be out of God's reach, we can lose His favor and damage our relationship with Him if we sin, and this should be the greatest fear of a follower of Jesus. A profound and intimate encounter between Moses, the Israelites, and God in Exodus 33 serves as a powerful reminder of how we can pursue God's presence in our lives.
