Revelation (3)

Passage: Revelation 1:19-2:11 Date: 19 July 2026 Speaker: Christoph Ebbinghaus Summary: In today’s message, we explore the profound encouragement Christ offers to the suffering church in Smyrna, which faced persecution yet remained faithful. Unlike other churches, Smyrna received no criticism, highlighting Jesus’ desire to uplift rather than condemn. As we reflect on their perseverance, we’re reminded that true faith often comes with challenges, calling us to embrace our own struggles with hope and love for Him.

Passage: 1 Kings 22:1-28 Date: 12 July 2026 Speaker: Christoph Ebbinghaus Summary: In this sermon, we explore the story of King Ahab and the prophet Micaiah, emphasizing the importance of seeking God’s truth. Ahab’s disregard for God’s word leads to his downfall, reminding us that while God’s truth can be uncomfortable and may seem weak in the face of popular opinion, it is ultimately certain. We are encouraged to stand firm in our faith and hold fast to the promises of God, knowing they will come to pass.

Revelation (2)

Passage: Revelation 2:1-7 Date: 12 July 2026 Speaker: David Montgomery Summary: In Revelation chapters 2 and 3, Jesus provides a powerful evaluation of the churches, asking the crucial question: Where is He? While the Ephesian church was active and orthodox, they had lost their first love for Christ. This sermon invites us to reflect on our own faith—are we busy with church activities, yet missing the heart of our mission? It’s a call to return to the passion of our initial love for God, ensuring our actions reflect His glory.
