As part of our series on the Holy Spirit, this sermon explores 1 Corinthians 14, where Paul describes tongues as a special prayer language from the Holy Spirit — one that helps us pray even when we don’t know what to say. In church gatherings, though, tongues need interpretation, so that everyone present, including newcomers, can understand and be welcomed. Support the show
Are you tired of running on the treadmill of "good behavior" just to please God? Many of us grew up thinking Christianity was just a long list of rules to keep—or things to stop doing. But what if the "good news" isn't actually about being good? In this sermon, we open Romans 7 to explore the radical difference between living under the exhausting weight of the law and walking in the life-giving…
When conversations around gender often feel like navigating a minefield of power struggles, how do we find a path that leads to flourishing rather than friction? In this sermon, we're continuing our series on church membership by exploring one of our core distinctives: the biblical design of family, and how that pertains to gender and gender roles. Moving beyond "who gets to be in charge," we look…
Our culture hasn’t just drifted from God’s design for sex and marriage — it has inverted it, treating personal sexual freedom as sacred and God’s wisdom as the problem. This sermon looks at what’s behind that shift, what the Bible actually teaches about marriage from Genesis to Revelation, and what it means to respond faithfully — whether that calls us to repentance, to costly obedience, or simply…
What is the difference between knowing the language of Christianity and actually being surrendered to Jesus? In this sermon, and as part of our series on church membership, Rich and Natalia Crosby share the story of Grace City Church, including their own story of moving past a "christianized" upbringing to discover the transformative power of grace. From the early days of planting Grace City…
The Bible pictures the church as a human body — many different parts, all belonging to one whole. This idea shapes everything about membership. When someone becomes a Christian, they are not only saved from sin - they are added to a community of people. This means being truly interconnected, because you cannot follow Jesus alone. It also means knowing your family — the specific people you are…
The Bible calls church leaders to be shepherds—a rich, ancient image running through the entire biblical narrative—not CEOs, therapists, or entertainers. Leadership is a gift from God to His people. Good shepherding means knowing your people personally, feeding them on Christ through the Word, leading them courageously (even when that requires correction), and protecting them sacrificially. The…
In a culture of self-promotion and competing rights, Peter calls for a countercultural marriage rooted in Christ. Wives are invited to a "quiet spirit"—not out of timidity, but as a bold trust in God that prioritizes inner beauty over outward attention. Similarly, husbands are called to lead through self-giving sacrifice rather than entitlement. Together, they mirror the Gospel: a partnership…
Peter’s message in 1 Peter 2:11–12 is simple: because we are God’s beloved exiles, we should live differently. We are called to trade soul-crushing passions for a life of such visible goodness that our neighbours see Christ in us. Transforming change doesn't come from just trying harder—it comes from loving Jesus more. Support the show
In 1 Peter 2:1-10, we see that while the world rejected Jesus, God chose Him to be the "Living Stone" and the foundation of a new people from all nations: the Church. This message calls us to examine our own lives: Are we building on the solid rock of Christ or on shifting sand? While God changes our hearts and gives us new spiritual appetites, we are called to actively participate in that growth.…
