Firm Foundations - God's Word and Spiritual Hunger

This week Pastor JR reminds us no matter how busy or distracted life gets, God’s word remains our firm foundation. Jesus reminds us that if we love Him, we will keep His word, and through that, He makes His home in us. Like any relationship, our love for God grows through time spent with Him.  So press in, abide in His word, and let His truth shape your life. His love for you is constant, and His word is alive—guiding, strengthening, and drawing you closer to Him every step of the way.

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. - 2 Timothy 16-17 (ESV)

Firm Foundations - Holy Spirit

This week Pastor Henry reminds us we are not alone when faced with challenges. The Holy Spirit is with us—guiding, empowering, and strengthening us. You have been given unique gifts, not just for yourself, but to bless and uplift those around you. Lean into His presence, trust in His wisdom, and allow Him to work through you in every situation. 

Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is accursed!” and no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except in the Holy Spirit. Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. - 1 Corinthians 12:2-6 (ESV)

Firm Foundations - Repentance and Baptism

This week Stephanie helps us to remember that God's grace is not a free pass to stay the same—it’s an invitation to transformation. Just as repentance is a complete turn towards God, let your heart, mind, and soul be fully positioned in His direction. When we surrender to Him, we are no longer enslaved by sin but walk in the freedom Christ has given us. Let us mbrace that freedom, live with purpose, and reflect the power of a life transformed by God. 

What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?  By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?  Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?  We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. - Romans 6:1-4 (ESV)

Firm Foundations - Lordship and Obedience

This week Pastor Neli helps us to realise how our trust in Jesus as Lord should shape every aspect of our lives.  When you trust in God, surrender to His Lordship, and walk in obedience, you are securing your life on an unshakable foundation. Even when uncertainty, fear, or doubt try to creep in, stand firm in the truth that He is with you, guiding you, and strengthening you. 

“Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you? Everyone who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like: he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. - Luke 6:46-48 (ESV)

Firm Foundations - Sin and Salvation

This week Pastor Henry help us to remember, that no matter where we are in your journey of faith,  God has created us with purpose and intention. Challenges will come, but when your foundation is built on His word, you will stand firm. Let His grace shape you, His truth guide you, and His love sustain you. You are not alone—let’s grow together, build together, and walk in the life God has called us to. 

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. - Ephesians 2:8-10 (ESV)

Heartbeat -Socially Responsible

This week Pastor JR reminds us  that Jesus is not just our Saviour—He is our King, and His kingdom is unshakable. He calls us to live Christ-centered, Spirit-empowered lives, bringing hope, healing, and freedom to those around us. When we walk in His calling, honouring God and serving others, we become part of something greater than ourselves. Let’s step out boldly, knowing that we are part of His kingdom, equipped and empowered to make a lasting impact. 

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
    because he has anointed me
    to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives
    and recovering of sight to the blind,
    to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”

And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. And he began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” - Luke 4:18-21 (ESV)

Heartbeat - Pentecost to Power

This week Stephanie helps us to remember that we are called and empowered by the Holy Spirit. Just as the disciples gathered in unity, waited, and received God’s power at Pentecost, we too must stay connected to our source—God Himself. When we plug into His presence, we are equipped with strength, wisdom, and courage to walk out our purpose. It’s not just about showing up; it’s about being fully engaged, listening to His leading, and stepping out in faith.

When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. - Acts 2:1-4 (ESV)

Heartbeat - Outreach

This week Pastor Henry helps us to reflect on our own storms and challenges.  No matter the storms you face, take heart—Jesus is with you. Just as He walked on water to reach His disciples in their moment of fear, He meets you in your struggles, offering His steady hand. When the waves feel overwhelming, fix your eyes on Him, knowing that He is greater than any challenge before you. Step out in faith, trusting that He will not let you sink. Let His presence be your peace, His Word be your guide, and His love be your strength. 

He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.  But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”  And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.  And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.” - Matthew 14:29-33 (ESV)

Heartbeat - Worship

This week Pastor JR helps us to remember that worship is more than just songs or a Sunday gathering—it’s a lifestyle rooted in knowing and honoring God. True worship isn’t about a place or routine; it’s about connecting with God in spirit and truth, letting His presence shape your heart and actions. When Jesus remains at the center of your life, your worship becomes a response of gratitude, surrender, and joy. 

So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac. And he cut the wood for the burnt offering and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.  On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar.  Then Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey; I and the boy will go over there and worship and come again to you.” - Genesis 22:3-5 (ESV)

The Cross - Simon of Cyrene

This week Pastor JR lets Simon of Cyrene's unexpected moments remind us of God's purpose even in life's interruptions. Just as Simon was compelled to carry the cross of Christ, we too may face moments that feel unplanned or overwhelming. In those moments, God invites us to step into His greater story. Your acts of faith, even when they feel small or unintentional, are significant in His Kingdom. Let us deny ourselves, take up our cross daily, and follow Him, knowing that His grace strengthens us for the journey.

²⁶ And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus. - Luke 23:26 (ESV)
