Session 3: The Holy Spirit in the Church and Beyond We reflected on how the Spirit prepared for the coming of Jesus and also prepared Jesus himself. But when you read the Gospel, you don’t see the active work of the Spirit during Jesus’ ministry. Why? Not because the Spirit was not there, but because […]
Session 2: The Holy Spirit in the New Testament We have examined the work of the Spirit in the Old Testament. We discovered that in the Old Testament, the Spirit was known mostly as the power of God. But there were developments in the understanding of the Holy Spirit. We examined 3 prophets who saw […]
Session 1: The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament Our life is more than physical and emotional existence. What we can see is the physical and emotional reality. You eat, you plan your day.

Session 2: Matthew’s Understanding of Jesus This morning we examined the witness of Mark about Jesus. Mark tried to understand this mysterious person, Jesus.

Session 2: Mark’s Understanding of Jesus We talked about the central question in the Gospel Mark. Who is Jesus? And we talked about Jesus’ popularity, the divine power, and the charismatic authority. People were attracted to Jesus, not to a person but to the power Jesus displayed. Mark said who Jesus was right from the […]
Session 1: Who Is Jesus? Who is Jesus? That is the most important question for Christians. Your answer for this question will determine your Christian life. You all have images of Jesus. What are some of the images you have about Jesus? A person holding sheep in his arms? A person chased out coin changers, […]
Scripture Passage John 13:31-35 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Jesus said, I give you a new commandment, that you love one another.

Scripture Passage Revelation 7:9-17 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script You have one life to live. Therefore, I think you should pursue the best things in life. Don’t chase the things that don’t matter. Don’t waste your time on trivial things. Pursue the best things. That’s what makes life worth living, isn’t it? The thing […]
Scripture Passage John 21:1-19 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Feeling guilty is a common response of all human beings. We are not perfect. We all make mistakes. We don’t always follow the good we aspire; we follow the evil we despise, sometimes. We don’t always stand up for what is right. We compromise with […]
Scripture Passage Isaiah 50:4-9 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Our mission team is in Cuba right now. For their trip, we asked for support from all of you. The response was incredible. Many backpacks and items. And cash amounts that exceeded what we asked for: almost $30,000. I reflected on what that means. The […]
Scripture Passage Philippians 3:4b-14 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script What do people value the most? A recent Reuters poll says that American people value “time” the most. Then “career”, “success”, and “money” come in as close seconds. I think that is so true. What good is money when you have no time to spend […]

Scripture Passage Psalm 27 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script We’ve been studying David at our Winter Fridays. The psalm we read today was written by him.

Scripture Passage Deuteronomy 26:1-11 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script When I think about people today, there’s a word that comes to my mind: overwhelmed. I sense that people are just overwhelmed. Overwhelmed by the demands placed on them. Their time. Energy. Attention. It is true, our senses are overwhelmed, our brains are overwhelmed. We […]
Scripture Passage Luke 9:28-36 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Today’s passage gives us a wonderful scene. A glorious scene! While Jesus was praying, his face changed. His clothes became dazzling. Two dead people appeared. They were not just dead people. They were like pillars of the Old Testament. Moses represented the Law. Elijah represented […]
Scripture Passage Luke 6:27-38 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Jesus is our Lord. But Jesus was also a flesh and blood human being.

Scripture Passage 1 Corinthians 15:12-20 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script When does a person deteriorate? What I means is… When does a person become weak, frail, dark, and negative? When does a person become overly critical, not happy, gloomy, and feel hopeless? I think that happens when your thinking is deteriorated. The other day, […]
Scripture Passage Luke 5:1-11 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Life is about more than fish. Focus on God, not the fish. God will provide all that you need and unlock what you really want. Do you know what it is that you WANT? What if what you THINK you want is not REALLY what […]
Scripture Passage 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Love never ends. (1 Corinthians 13:8) This phrase catches my eyes. There is so much in this passage.

Scripture Passage 1 Corinthians 12:12-31a Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script When St. Paul met Christ, he became a new person.

Scripture Passage Isaiah 62:1-5 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script God never forsakes you. God never abandons you. God never deserts you.

He cried out, my God, my God, […]
