On Sunday, we started a new eight-week sermon series through the book of Amos. In a time of outward prosperity and religious activity, Israel felt secure - but beneath the surface was injustice, oppression, idolatry, and complacency. Through a shepherd from the south, God declares that He will not spare His ...
We concluded the first half of our Cross & Crown Values sermon series on Sunday by exploring our fifth key value: Discipleship. This value reminds us that all Christians are called to be disciple-making disciples and not merely churchgoers. As a church, we seek to build ourselves and others to maturity in Christ - ...
Prayerful Dependence was the fourth key value we looked at in our Cross & Crown Values sermon series. As a church, we seek to prayerfully rely on our Sovereign God and not our own wisdom. Prayerful Dependence means placing our confidence in our Heavenly Father for all things, expressed through prayer.
At Cross & Crown Penang, we value our theological heritage in its understanding of Scripture and salvation. Summarized as Protestant Reformed Theology, this was the third key value explored in our ongoing sermon series. At the heart of the Protestant Reformation was the rediscovery and restoration of ...
The second sermon in our Cross & Crown values series focused on Biblical Authority. In upholding Biblical Authority, we submit to the Scriptures as our foundation and authority.

In exploring the theme of Gospel Calling, we looked through various passages in Scripture to discover God’s call of salvation. God calls us through His Gospel, to be ...
In the final sermon of our series through the book of Esther, we saw joyous relief for God’s people from their enemies in Esther 8:3-10:3. Despite Mordecai’s rise to honor and Haman’s fall, the genocidal death sentence issued by Haman still hung over God’s people. Queen Esther continued to fulfil her role as ...
The third sermon of the series brought us through the dramatic climax of Queen Esther’s story. In Esther 5:1-8:2, we witnessed a great reversal - God humbling the proud and exalting the humble. The narrative follows Esther as she prepares ...
In the second sermon of our series through Esther, we explored the rising tension and historical conflict in Esther 2:19-4:17, where God’s people faced hostility and oppression. In a detail that initially seems out of place, we learn that Queen Esther was still hiding her true identity, and that Mordecai had once saved King ...
