Lead pastor on Ephesians 4:25-32. In Christ, the believer puts off the old self and puts on the new — speaking truth, not letting anger linger till sundown, refusing dishonesty and corrupt speech, learning to forgive as God in Christ has forgiven us.

Lead pastor on Ephesians 4. The church as the body of Christ is members in love, each joining and bearing the rest in their differences, gradually maturing together. Fellowship is more than gathering — it is the learning of mutual support and the building of one unified life.

Lead pastor on Matthew 10:16. Jesus sends his disciples ‘as sheep among wolves’ — to be ‘wise as serpents and innocent as doves.’ In an age of hostility, the Christian can neither be naive nor become cruel; only with wisdom and innocence together can witness be lived out.

Rev. Joseph Chang on Genesis 28:10-22 (Jacob’s ladder). The fugitive Jacob dreams of a ladder — God’s grace meets the unworthy. Heaven is not only an afterlife — when God’s presence enters our journey, our dreams, our trouble, that moment is heaven opened.

Jason Ho on Mark 5:34 — ‘Daughter, your faith has saved you.’ Faith is not a transaction with God; it is the courage to bring our lives truthfully before the Lord. Even in fear and beneath labels of impurity, reaching out to touch the hem of his garment is itself an act of faith.

Jason Ho on Mark 5:1-20 — the Gerasene demoniac. Caged by many demons, the man dwells among the tombs, self-harming — defined by society’s stigma and his own. Jesus breaks the stigma, clothes him, sends him home to witness. What ‘demons’ live in our own hearts? Jesus can release us.
