  • The Security Of Our Salvation | Sermon 4 | 2026 Easter Conference (April 4)
    2026/10/18

    In this sermon Tom Dickerson unpacks the profound depth of God's love and the absolute security of salvation found in Romans 8:31–39.

    The sermon opens with the story of Dick Hoyt's sacrificial love in pushing his quadriplegic son, Rick, through over 1,100 races, 255 triathlons, and 32 Boston Marathons. This devotion serves as a picture of earthly fatherhood that points to the far greater, unbreakable love of God for His adopted children.

    Key Themes & Structure:

    • Security in the Courtroom of God (Romans 8:31–34): Because God did not spare His own Son and Christ died, rose, and continually intercedes for us, no charge brought against God's elect can ever stand
    • Security on the Battlefield of the World (Romans 8:35–39): Amid earthly trials, persecution, distress, and hardship, believers are "more than conquerors", and nothing in all creation can separate us from God's love in Christ.
    • Evaluating Assurance & Doubts: The message addresses common reasons believers doubt their salvation and provides 5 tests of assurance from 1 John (fellowship with God, sensitivity to sin, obedience to scripture, rejection of the world, and love for fellow Christians) to help believers examine their faith.

  • The Cross: Jesus In Our Place | Sermon 2| 2026 Easter Conference (April 4)
    2026/10/16

    In this Easter Conference sermon, Pastor Kondi Nyanda preaches on Isaiah 53:1–6 under the theme The Cross: Jesus In Our Place". Looking closely at the prophecy of the Suffering Servant, Pastor Kondi examines the reality of Christ's penal substitutionary atonement—that Jesus willingly suffered the full weight of God's wrath and human rejection so that repentant sinners could be reconciled to God.

    Key Headings Covered in this Message:

    1. The Suffering He Endured (Isaiah 53:3–4) — Christ experienced deep physical, emotional, and social rejection, bearing human grief and sorrow fully as God incarnate.

    2. The Reason for His Suffering (Isaiah 53:5)— Jesus was pierced and crushed not for His own wrongdoing, but as a substitute for our transgressions and iniquities.

    3. The Result of His Suffering (Isaiah 53:6) — Though all of us wandered like foolish sheep, God laid the penalty of our guilt upon His Son, securing our peace, spiritual healing, and salvation.

  • Our Greatest Problem | 2026 Easter Conference (April 4)
    2026/10/15

    In this opening session of the Easter Conference, Pastor Ernest Kanzangaza opens Romans 3:9–20 to address humanity's ultimate dilemma under the title "Our Greatest Problem"

    Drawing from Paul’s courtroom presentation in Romans, this sermon demonstrates that both Jews and Gentiles stand universally guilty before a holy God. Through Old Testament scriptures (including Psalm 14 and Psalm 5), Paul presents overwhelming testimony that sin infects every part of human existence our nature, our speech, and our actions - culminating in a complete lack of the fear of God.

    Ultimately, the law cannot save us; it stops every mouth and points us to our urgent need for salvation through Jesus Christ alone. --- Bible References Primary Passage:Romans 3:9–20 --- Video Chapters (Timestamps)

    00:00 Welcome & Opening Prayer

    02:15 Introduction:Context of the Book of Romans

    04:30 God's Verdict:Universal Guilt Under Sin (Romans 3:9)

  • Why Would Christ Wait? | John 11:1–16 Sermon
    2026/10/13

    In this expositional sermon on John 11:1–16, Pastor Kellen Hiroto explores the opening scene of the seventh and climactic sign in the Gospel of John: the resurrection of Lazarus. When Jesus receives word that His dear friend Lazarus is sick, He responds in a way that defies human expectations by staying two days longer where He was.

    Why would Christ wait when those He loved were suffering? This sermon walks through three key scenes in John 11:1–16 that reveal the sovereign power and perfect love of Jesus Christ:

    1. A Purposeful Delay & God's Glory (John 11:1–6): Discover how God’s glory takes priority over human comfort, and why Jesus’s delay was an act of perfecting love rather than pampering love.
    2. A Divine Timeline (John 11:7–10): Learn how Jesus operated on a Father-ordained timeline that no threat or circumstance could disrupt.
    3. The Foreshadowed Resurrection (John 11:11–16): See how Christ allowed loss and grief so His disciples’ faith might be deepened and grounded in His resurrection power.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Understanding trials through a God-centered worldview and a God-glorifying life.
    • Refuting the prosperity gospel by recognizing that God's primary goal for believers is conforming us to Christ’s image, not worldly ease.
    • Reading life's circumstances through the lens of Jesus’s love, rather than measuring His love by our circumstances.
    • How sovereign truth reshapes our prayer life during times of affliction.

    Scripture References: John 11:1–16, Luke 10, Psalm 139:16, 1 Peter 1:3–7.

  • Who Is God Devoted To?| Numbers 20:1-13 | Chisomo Masambuka | Chapel Service
    2026/10/12

    Have you ever wondered why God gave Moses such a severe consequence for striking the rock in Numbers 20? After 40 years of faithful leadership, Moses was forbidden from entering the Promised Land. Was it an unfair punishment for a moment of anger, or was something much deeper at play?

    In this sermon on Numbers 20:1–13, Chisomo Masambuka examines the central question of the text: Who is God devoted to? Explore the nature of God's holiness, the subtle traps of familiarity in leadership, and how God’s ultimate devotion to His own glory provides both a sober warning and an unshakable comfort for believers today.

  • Lifting The Lid On Unbelief
    2026/10/07

    In this third and final sermon through John chapter 11, Pastor Kellen Hiroto helps us look at the immediate aftermath of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. Rather than focusing on the mechanics or interview details of the miracle itself, the Apostle John focuses on the varied reactions to the sign—specifically contrasting saving belief with the subtle and dangerous characteristics of unbelief.

    Join us as we explore John 11:45–57 and examine five characteristics of unbelief that serve as a clear warning to guard our hearts against hardening, while encouraging us toward wholehearted faith in Jesus Christ.

    Key Topics Covered:

    1. The clear distinction between belief and unbelief

    2. How unbelief actively suppresses the truth

    3. The dangers of prideful pragmatism and compromise

    4. The extreme evil and ultimate cost of rejecting Christ

    5. How passive curiosity fails to save
