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 ...

This past Sunday, we had the privilege of David Nguyen to speak God’s word from Acts 18:1-17. Here we see God’s hand of provision throughout the narrative, orchestrating events and people to advance His gospel. As Paul travels to Corinth, God graciously provides for Paul materially, evangelistically, and ...
On Sunday, we looked through Acts 17:16-34 to see the first instance of Paul’s engagement not just in the synagogues, but in the wider Gentile world. Paul encounters the world of philosophy and pagan religion, facing them head on. Here we see how the Gospel stands strong in the marketplace of ideas and among ...
We continued our journey through Acts 17:1-15, looking at how Paul persistently preached the gospel to both Jews and Gentiles.
