Remember Jesus Christ, Raised from the Dead
The Letters to Timothy Remember Jesus Christ, Raised from the Dead Readings: 2 Timothy 2:8-15 Preacher: Kevin Kim As he nears the end of his life, the Apostle Paul leaves Timothy with one final and unforgettable command: “Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead.” In a world marked by uncertainty, suffering, and change, Paul reminds us that the resurrection is not simply an event from the past—it is the hope that transforms how we live today. This message explores how remembering Read more
Rekindle the Gift of God
The Letters to Timothy Rekindle the Gift of God Readings: 2 Timothy 1:1-14 Preacher: Kevin Kim Why is it that everything seems to drift towards disorder? Scientists call it entropy—the natural tendency for things to wear out, break down and lose energy. But could the same be true of our spiritual lives? In this message from 2 Timothy, we meet a weary and discouraged Timothy, and discover Paul’s gentle invitation to “fan into flame the gift of God.” Rather than calling Read more
Becoming like Jesus – Choir Sunday

Bridging Worlds: Paul in Athens
Bridging Worlds: Paul in Athens Readings: Acts 17:16-31 Preacher: Kevin Kim In Acts of the Apostles 17, we meet Paul in Athens—a city full of ideas, questions, and idols. It’s the cultural and intellectual centre of the ancient world. And as Paul looks around, he is deeply stirred. But what’s striking is what he does next. He doesn’t walk away. He doesn’t attack. He begins to engage. Paul steps into conversation—in the synagogue, in the marketplace, and eventually in the Read more
Paul’s Conversion: When God Finds Us
Paul’s Conversion: When God Finds Us Readings: Acts 9:1-19a Preacher: Kevin Kim After journeying through the Gospel of John over the past 16 weeks, we now turn to the New Testament book of Acts, where we see how the good news of Jesus begins to spread in powerful and unexpected ways. This Sunday, we begin with one of the most dramatic stories in Scripture—Paul’s conversion—where everything changes in a moment of interruption and encounter. What if faith does not begin Read more
The Gospel that began at the Well
The Gospel that began at the WellReading: John 4:1-42 Preacher: Kevin Kim In this week’s message, we continue our journey through John’s Gospel by moving from Nicodemus’ nighttime conversation with Jesus to a surprising encounter at a Samaritan well. Through the intentional contrast between a respected religious leader and a socially rejected woman, we see that Jesus meets people in every place — in theology classrooms and in ordinary daily routines. At the well, Jesus breaks barriers, offers living water Read more
Who Holds the World?
Who Holds the World? Preacher: Kevin Kim Readings: John 3:1-21 In a time when global headlines feel unsettling and the future can seem uncertain, many of us are asking deeper questions: Who is really in control? Where is God in all of this?This Sunday, we’ll explore Jesus’ nighttime conversation with Nicodemus in John 3:1–21—a story about uncertainty, courage, and new beginnings. Jesus speaks not of self-improvement or religious achievement, but of being born from above—receiving new life as a gift Read more
Let Justice Flow, Let Grace Begin
Promises of HopeLet Justice Flow, Let Grace Begin Reading: Amos 1:1–2; 5:14–15, 21–24 Preacher: Rev Kevin Kim The prophet Amos calls us to see the world as God sees it — to confront injustice, to love what is good, and to let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. His words remind us that true worship is not found only in song or ceremony, but in lives shaped by mercy, fairness, and compassion. This Sunday, as Read more
Called by God – Solomon
Called by God – Solomon Reading: 1 Kings 5:1-5; 8:1-13 Preacher: Rev Kevin Kim This week we continue our series Called by God with the story of Solomon, the king entrusted with building the temple (1 Kings 5:1–5; 8:1–13). Solomon was called to construct a dwelling place for the name of the Lord — a task his father David longed to do but could not. The temple became a symbol of God’s presence and peace among his people, yet it Read more
Choir Sunday – Listen to God’s Voice in Song
Choir Sunday Listen to God’s Voice in Song Reading: 1 Samuel 3:1-21 Preacher: Kevin Kim This Sunday is our Choir Sunday, and we’ll be reflecting on the story of young Samuel who said, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.” Just as Samuel listened for God’s call, we too are invited to open our hearts to God’s voice. Our church band will lead us in music and song, with the choir joining in to enrich and lift our worship. The Read more
