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
TRUST – God Will Provide
Title: Trust! God will provideSeries: Old Testament / Our God ProvidesReadings: Exodus 16:1-18 Preacher: Phil Swain This Sunday we wrap up our Our God Provides series by joining the Israelites out in the desert (Exodus 16:1–18). Even though they had just seen God’s amazing rescue in the Exodus story, it didn’t take long before the doubts set in. Hungry and uncertain, the people began to complain that God might not provide for them. But instead of turning away, God graciously Read more
Our Heavenly Father hears and responds
Our Heavenly Father hears and responds Reading: Exodus 2:23 – 3:15 Preacher: Kevin Kim At Father’s Day service, we will be looking at Exodus 2 and 3, where God hears the cries of his people and shows up at just the right time. Our Heavenly Father always hears us too. His help might not come straight away, but it always comes at the perfect time — because he knows exactly what we need and when we need it.

God Provides a Way
Old Testament: Our God ProvidesTheme: God Provides a WayReading: Genesis 27:1–4, 15–23; 28:10–17 Preacher: Daniel Gibb This week we will be focusing on the story of Jacob and Esau. This is a story of rivalry, mistakes, and surprising grace. Jacob’s life is far from perfect: he schemes, deceives, and struggles, but even through it all, God continues to bless him and work through his story. In the same way, we are reminded that God’s blessings are not limited to our Read more
When Faith Trembles, God Provides.
When Faith trembles, God Provides Reading: Genesis 21:1-3; 22:1-14 Preacher: Kevin Kim This Sunday we hear both the joy of Isaac’s birth (Genesis 21) and the testing of Abraham on Mount Moriah (Genesis 22). In fear and trembling, Abraham learns the truth of Jehovah Jireh—“the Lord will provide.” For us, this points to the cross: just as God provided a ram in Isaac’s place, he has given his beloved son, Jesus, as the lamb for our salvation. In our own Read more

While we are waiting
Thessalonians – While we are WaitingReadings: 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12 & 2:13-17 Preacher: Phil Swain We wrap up our Thessalonians series with a conversation that sits at the heart of Paul’s letters to the early church — the Second Coming of Jesus. Often framed with mystery or even fear, we are going to open up Paul’s second letter to the Thessalonians to see how we might understand the theology of Jesus’ return. Have you ever wondered what Jesus’ return is all Read more
Living the Triple Call of Grace
Living the Triple Call of Grace Readings: 1 Thessalonians 5:12-28 Preacher: Kevin Kim In the final verses of his letter to the Thessalonians, Paul calls the church to live out a Spirit-filled life as they await Christ’s return—not with fear, but with faithfulness. Faithful waiting means living well today—with a posture of respect, patience, and prayer. We are invited to live peacefully in a loud and demanding world, to serve purposefully in love, to rejoice continually, pray without ceasing, and give thanks Read more

This week, we begin by exploring Paul’s strong call to encourage one another. In a world that often Read more
Imagine (Combined Worship)
Combined Worship Celebration – ImagineReadings: Ephesians 3:7-21 Preacher: Phil Swain This is the sermon from our combined worship experience where we brought together our 9am, 10:45am, and EVOLVE communities into one joyful and inspiring service. The theme was IMAGINE, and we reflected on Ephesians 3:7–21, which reminds us that God is at work in ways far greater than we could ever ask or imagine—and that we’re invited to be part of it! Sermon Text There’s something special about having the Read more
