458. The Seven "I AM"s of Jesus (Week 7)- I Am The Resurrection and The Life // Andre Tan 1:03:17

for 2 dager siden1:03:17

1:03:17

Christianity doesn’t leave us to face death alone. Instead, it gives us a Champion who has defeated death, and who pardons and covers us with His love.” - @andrejosiah At our Resurrection Sunday service, Pastor Andre concluded our series on the Seven "I Am"s of Jesus - with a sharing on Jesus as the Resurrection and the Life. Many of us fear death, and are reluctant to face our own mortality. We find it hard to comprehend a life beyond this present world, and think that this is all we will ever experience and enjoy. However, as we reflect on Jesus’ death and resurrection, we are reminded that our Saviour has conquered death for us. Because He is risen, we are raised to new life in Him. We can now have hope, even through loss, and can live with resurrection courage because nothing, not even death, can separate us from the love of God. Christ is risen. He is risen, indeed!…

457. The Seven "I AM"s of Jesus (Week 6) - I Am The Way, Truth and Life // Sng Peh Han 55:08

for 9 dager siden55:08

55:08

“Jesus is the way to the Father, manifests the truth of the Father, and gives us the life of the Father.” - Peh Han On week 6 of our Lent series, The Seven “I Am”s of Jesus, and Ps. Peh Han brought us a word on Jesus being the way, the truth and the life. Speaking from John 14:1-6, Jesus declares Himself as the way - the bridge between us and the Father, the truth - the anchor and answer to every chain of life’s questions, and the life - who authors, gives and sustains life. Through Jesus, we are invited to come home to the Father and commune with Him the way we were created to. Amidst the doubt and confusion that life throws at us, may we continue being anchored in Jesus by walking the narrow way towards the life we were called to in Christ, and recognise that Jesus is the only truth that we should believe.…

455. The Seven "I AM"s of Jesus (Week 4) - I Am The Good Shepherd // Sng Pei Han 43:59

for 15 dager siden43:59

43:59

“Our security lies in our proximity to the Good shepherd. We can trust Jesus the good shepherd to lead and care for us.” - @pehhan82 Pst Peh Han continued our Lent series on the Seven “I Ams” of Jesus, with a sharing on Jesus as our shepherd. Jesus’ leadership of His flock is the antithesis of today’s ideas strong leadership - self sacrificial and meek, He watches over His sheep with deep concern and care because we are His own. The question for us today is: do we know His voice, just as He knows us intimately? May we desire to cultivate a deep and personal relationship with our shepherd, and answer His call to hand our lives completely to Him as He leads us into the future we long for.…

454. The Seven "I Am"s of Jesus (Week 3) - I Am The Gate // Janice Chern 52:43

for 15 dager siden52:43

52:43

“Living a vibrant life in the Lord involves going in and out of the gate - not staying safe on the inside of pasture, but taking up the call to follow Him in laying down our lives for a cause that he has called us to.” - @janicechinchern Janice continued our Lent series with a sharing on Jesus’ saying: I am the gate. While we go through many different paths to find fulfilment and purpose, we discover that there is no other way to deliverance from sin, disordered desires and salvation but through Jesus. As the gate, He protects, saves and restores us. Yet, the invitation isn’t just to experience Jesus for ourselves but to follow in His footsteps and be a gate that others may come to know Him. As we reflect on the word, may we rediscover Jesus as our gate that we may rest and live secure in Him. At the same time, pray into how we may serve others around us just as Jesus did.…

456. The Seven "I AM"s of Jesus (Week 5) - I Am The Vine // Andre Tan 55:31

for 16 dager siden55:31

55:31

“To abide is to draw life from something - to stay close and long enough so that whatever you’re abiding in begins to shape, nourish and form you.” - @andrejosiah In week 5 of our Lent series on the seven “I Am”s of Jesus, we dive into Jesus being the vine. Focusing on John 15:1-11, Ps. Andre shares that because Jesus is the true vine, we now have direct access to God through abiding in Jesus. To abide is to make your home in something or somewhere. When Jesus calls us to abide in Him, He is saying to us to make our home in Him, as He makes His home in us. Just like a branch draws life from a vine, as we remain in Jesus, we draw life from Him and are shaped into His likeness. And just as a gardener prunes the branches that bear fruit so that it can be even more fruitful, we face seasons of trials and tribulations that test our faith to purify and prepare us to receive more of what God has promised us. As we learn to continually abide in the true vine and root our lives in Him, we pray that we would not rush through life, strive to prove ourselves or shy away from suffering, but to recognise that we are already loved and chosen by God, and that our joy is complete in Him.…

453. The Seven "I Am"s of Jesus (Week 2) - I Am The Light of The World // Timothy Seow 44:58

“To our struggle with emptiness, evil and existential longing, Jesus says. “I am the Light”, the fulfilment of God’s presence, righteousness and salvation for you.” - @timothyshaun Tim continued our Lent series on the seven “I Am”s of Jesus, with a sharing from John 8, where Jesus makes Himself known as the Light of the World. Have we tried to fight the darkness in our lives with artificial light instead of following and pursuing the ultimate light - Jesus Himself? Yet, nothing can guide us out of spiritual darkness but Jesus who has come to lead and save us from our sins. May our response be to receive, walk in and share the Light of Christ in our lives, and know Him as He desires to be known.…

452. The Seven "I Am"s of Jesus (Week 1) - I Am The Bread of Life // Sng Peh Han 51:56

for 7 weeks siden51:56

51:56

“Jesus came to change our desires at the core so that He becomes the main one, the central desire.” - @pehhan82 Kicking off the Lenten sermon series ‘The Seven ‘I am’s’ Of Jesus’, Ps. Peh Han taught from John 6:26-35, where Jesus declared Himself to be the bread of life. He promised that those who put their faith in Him would never hunger and would receive eternal life. The miraculous act of Jesus feeding the multitude with just five loaves and two fish was intended to reveal His divine nature, inviting people to place their faith in Him as the provider of eternal treasures, far beyond the fleeting satisfactions of this world. It reminds us that when we focus on temporary things, we lose sight of what truly matters. God knows our needs and will provide, though not always in the way we expect. Jesus came to redirect our desires, urging us to focus on the eternal, making Him the central and lasting desire of our hearts. Let’s reflect on Jesus as the Bread of Life, and examine areas where we may be focused on the temporary and shift our focus to what is eternal. May we trust in God’s provision, even when it doesn’t align with our expectations, and let this deepen our desire for Jesus and setting our hearts on the eternal treasures He provides.…

451. Vision Series (Week 3)- Refusing To Settle // Andre Tan 1:00:27

for 8 weeks siden1:00:27

1:00:27

“We can’t step into God’s promise while still holding onto the idols of yesterday.” - @andrejosiah In the final week of our Vision Series, Ps. Andre spoke on his vision to see our church become a people who refuses to settle. Speaking from the life of Terah, we learnt that there are a couple of factors why we settle in our faith - out of familiarity, out of grief or loss, or out of fear. When we allow these things to have a hold on us, they hold us back from stepping fully into what God has in store for us. Are there any areas in your life where you have settled, thus preventing you from taking that step of faith to fully obey God’s call? We pray that God will grant us the courage to submit those areas to Him, and refuse to settle for anything less than all of Him.…

450. Vision Series (Week 2) - A Missional Unity // Andre Tan 1:12:17

for 9 weeks siden1:12:17

1:12:17

“The world will not be impressed by a church that mirrors society’s divisions, but it will be astonished by a church where people who have nothing in common except Jesus — love one another as family.” - @andrejosiah In week 2 of our Vision Series, Ps. Andre shared his heart for The City to have a missional unity which transcends personal preference, affinity, and cultural similarities, and binds the church together for the shared purpose of advancing the gospel. He talked about how missional unity can be expressed through being a category-defying community, one that guards against division, and captures a shared mission. In a world that teaches us to narrow our circle - to align ourselves with people who think like us, act like us, live like us and benefit us, may we be the church that does the opposite: widen the circle to welcome those whom the world would never put together.…

449. Vision Series (Week 1) - Fending Off Lukewarmness // Andre Tan 1:10:51

for 11 weeks siden1:10:51

1:10:51

“To fall in God’s kingdom is to be about good deeds without great love. It is giving up the better part.” – @andrejosiah Pst Andre kicked off our Vision Series today with a message on Fending Off Lukewarmness. Sharing from the story of the church of Ephesus that started with passionate love for Jesus but eventually settled for routine faithfulness, it was a stark reminder of how easily we too can lose our zeal and fall into compromise. Jesus shows us the way back—by remembering what we’ve lost, repenting from the seriousness of sin, and returning to the works of first love. Let’s rededicate ourselves to a rhythm of renewal, and rediscover a desire for God’s love and life to fill our lives and community.…

448. Following Jesus Seriously in 2025 // Timothy Seow 53:37

for 12 weeks siden53:37

53:37

It’s time to get serious.” - @timothyshaun Following Andrew’s message on our priestly calling, Timothy encouraged us to follow Jesus seriously in 2025. We know that we are to live with our reward being joy and communion with God, and spend our lives for God’s dreams and His kingdom. But in trying to live out these goals, we realise that our hearts are prone to wander because the desires of our hearts are at war with each other, distracting us from pursuing God’s kingdom wholeheartedly. Let’s stop to ask ourselves where our desires are leading us to - the desires of the flesh, or Jesus and His kingdom? As we commit to lay down the desires of our flesh, Jesus reassures us that we will receive our reward, though sometimes not in the way or at a time we may expect. So how should we live in this tension and position where we are to hold on to the desires that God has given us, yet be open-handed with how and when they come into fruition? Timothy encourages us to go deeper inward, by sitting with our wants and allow the Holy Spirit to show us how order our true desires. He also mentioned how we could reach further outward; where seeking first the kingdom looks like being on the mission of God.…

447. Our Priestly Calling // Andrew Tam 53:29

for 13 weeks siden53:29

53:29

“Jesus did not promise that everything will work out in this life, even if we were fully obedient. However, he promised that it will be worth it, because He is worth it all.” - @andoryuutam Speaking from the book of Malachi and the life of John the Baptist, we learn what our priestly calling is, which is primarily to revere God, and stand in front of Him in awe and trembling. We are called to live faithfully, putting the first things first and letting everything else apart from God fade away. May we be like John the Baptist and be a people who see God rightly, who are willing to say 1000 ‘no’s to the world for the 1 ‘yes’ to God, who will not be preoccupied by what our own dreams are, but stop to consider what God’s dreams are - not just for us but our families, our friends, our community, our society - and make space in our hearts to carry and partner with Him to fulfil those dreams.…

446. The Sacred Rhythms of Grace // Sng Peh Han 40:45

for 14 weeks siden40:45

40:45

“When we don’t have everything figured out and when we are overwhelmed, that’s where God’s grace unfolds.” - @pehhan82 Pst Peh Han shared on The Sacred Rhythms of Grace as we kicked off our first service for the year. Has the new year already started to feel like the same cycle of exhaustion, and are we already starting to question where we are headed? Therein lies an opportunity for renewal and hope amid such circumstances by forging deeper connections and rediscovering practices of healing and unity. God has not called us to bear the weight of life’s struggles alone. Instead, He calls us to be in community as a body of Christ, and wants to meet us with His grace in moments of uncertainty. As we enter a new week, may it be our prayer for God to help us embrace the uncertainties of life with faith and hope, as we fix our eyes on Him.…

445. Advent: Missing Jesus - The People of Nazareth (Week 3) // Sng Peh Han 59:21

for 18 weeks siden59:21

59:21

“Advent is not merely about waiting but about cultivating the discipline of not becoming overfamiliar and the readiness to embrace the mystery when it is revealed.” - @pehhan82 In week 3 of the series ‘Missing Jesus’, Ps. Peh Han taught from Luke 4:16-22, where the people of Nazareth, influenced by their preconceived ideas about Jesus due to their close familiarity with Him, allowed this to shape their perception and, ultimately, caused them to miss the truth. Being so accustomed to the religious traditions and expectations have led them to spiritual blindness and an inability to recognise Jesus as the anointed One. He invited us to ponder if we have failed to use our spiritual eyes in our relationships with people and God, where our assumption of knowledge and resistance to the unfamiliar have hindered us from moving into a new arena of faith and into deeper revelation of God. May we examine our hearts and reflect if there is any overfamiliarity that has led to unbelief and prevented us from missing the divine in the everyday. Let it be our prayer to abide and remain in that posture of awe and wonder as we seek Him out in our daily lives. #wearethecitysg #sundaysatthecitysg…

444. Advent: Missing Jesus - The Pharisees (Week 2) // Janice Chiern 1:01:26

for 19 weeks siden1:01:26

1:01:26

“The way we view sin, grace and God’s redemptive love shapes the righteousness we live by.” - @janicechinchern In week 2 of our series ‘Missing Jesus’, we take a look at the Pharisees and how their self-righteousness pulled them away from God, because in their emphasis on keeping the law and honouring God, they neglected the fuller picture of God’s intent: restoration of the shalom of God. In their self-righteousness, the Pharisees placed rules above relationship, status over people and conformity over love and unity. But God calls us to a righteousness that is primarily about right relationship with Him and others, and we embody His heart and desires. May we be a people who would reject self-righteousness for God’s righteousness, walking in the Spirit to experience the fullness of God’s unconditional love and grace for us and live with hearts of generosity towards the people around us.…
