The Heart Of A Witness Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 5, 2021

Paul could have gotten off immediately but he stayed. He could have defended himself but he defended the Gospel. He sought to bridge the gap with his people. He was prepared to sacrifice for the sake of the Gospel.

LET US PRAY: Thank you for your written Word. May the truth of your Word inspires us again, to know you and trust you, to give us hope and strength, and make us faithful followers of Christ. May the life and ministry of Paul be an encouragement for all of us who are serving you today. Bless us ...read more

When Foundations Crumble

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 26, 2018

This sermon looks at our lives when the spiritual earthquakes of life hit, and our spiritual foundations begin to crumble, and then how do we rebuild. We look at Jesus as our chief cornerstone, how we are built as living stones one upon another, and how to find that new normal for life.

When Foundations Crumble There’s a saying among seismologists: “Earthquakes don’t kill people. Buildings kill people.” It’s not the enormous shock waves that cause most injuries and fatalities. It’s how the structures in which people live, work, and congregate react to those shock waves that ...read more

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 4, 2022

Contributed by Martin Spoelstra on Mar 14, 2023

In order to be prepared for the attacks of the Devil and his demons, we must know more about him. Spiritual warfare has nothing to do with personality, gifting, calling or background. When you signed up to be a Christian, you automatically entered into warfare.

In every minor religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. Even for those who don’t believe in God, many believe in the supernatural. If ...read more
