In this week’s message Neil invites us to stand with believers around the world who serve Jesus amid hostility and hardship. Marking the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church, this sermon reflects on how God’s power shines through weakness — drawing from 2 Corinthians 4:7–12 and the stories of pastors like Akashan, Mohan, and Wang Yi.

Through their courage, we see that the treasure of Christ’s gospel is carried in fragile “jars of clay,” revealing the strength of God when human strength runs out.

In this week’s message, “Words for a Waiting World,” Neil reminds us that God’s Word still carries life-giving power — even when everything around us feels dry and uncertain. Drawing from Isaiah 55, this sermon explores how God’s promises continue to work beneath the surface, accomplishing His purpose in ways we can’t always see.

Through vivid imagery and real-life reflection, Neil invites us to trust the slow, steady work of the Word — like rain soaking into thirsty soil — and to believe that what feels barren today can still bloom tomorrow.

If you’ve ever found yourself praying, hoping, or waiting for change, this episode will encourage you to keep sowing seeds of faith and trust that God’s Word will not return empty.

In this final message of the “From Worry to Worship” series, Neil takes us on a journey through Habakkuk 3 — a passage that transforms fear into faith and complaint into praise. Just like Paul and Silas singing in the darkness of a prison cell, Habakkuk learns to worship even when the world is falling apart.

Through honest reflection, vivid imagery, and timeless truth, this sermon explores what it means to rejoice in God when everything else is uncertain. You’ll be encouraged to remember God’s past faithfulness, rest in His sovereign presence, and rejoice in His unchanging goodness — even when the fig tree doesn’t bud and the vines are bare.

If you’ve ever struggled to worship in the middle of hardship, this episode will remind you that the deepest praise often rises from the darkest places.
