Scripture: Luke 7:18-35 | Speaker: Josh Tong | Date: July 23, 2017

What is true greatness? Is it power? Is it influence? Is it net worth? These are the kinds of things the world exalts as the standards of greatness, and they have become so prominent in our thinking that many of us define ourselves by how we measure up to them. In this sermon, Pastor Josh teaches us how Jesus rewrites the rules of greatness, so that our identity isn’t rooted in who we are or what we have done, but in who Jesus is and what he has done.

Scripture: Luke 7:1-17 | Speaker: Josh Tong | Date: July 2, 2017

The miracles of Jesus have rightly been described as ‘teaching in action’. They are visible signs of invisible realities performed in order to reveal the person and work of Christ more fully to us. In this sermon, Pastor Josh explains how two of these miracles reveal two key characteristics of Jesus that all must believe if they are to come to him with humble faith: the authority of Jesus, and the compassion of Jesus.

Scripture: Luke 6:27-49 | Speaker: Josh Tong | Date: June 25, 2017

We are taught that, when we encounter an enemy, we have two options: fight or flight. We either stand our ground or we run away. In this sermon, Pastor Josh explores the third option that Jesus gives to us: love your enemies, do good to them, pray for them, and forgive them. How can we become such merciful people? Only by knowing Jesus, the One who showed us mercy when we were His enemies.

Who was Jesus? Many would say he was a religious reformer who had come to revive a religion that had largely lost its way. In this sermon, Pastor Josh explains that Jesus didn’t just see himself as a reformer. He saw himself as the center of all religious life. And who does the center of religion belong to? No one but God himself.

Scripture: Luke 5:12-32 | Speaker: Josh Tong | Date: May 28, 2017

If you had the choice of being an eye witness to any miracle of your choice, what would it be? Would you want to see a dead person rising from the dead? Would you want to see a child with cancer healed? Would you want to see a blind person see? These would all be amazing miracles, but there is one miracle that surpasses them all. In this sermon, Pastor Josh explains that the greatest miracle of all is done in the soul, and the only person equipped to perform this miracle is Jesus Christ.
