The culture we live in is full of innuendo, sexual misconduct, and perverse ideas. How can we maintain purity in this environment? What does purity mean for us? This sermon reveals the importance of maintaining sexual purity and helps identify ways we can get caught up in immorality.
Faith is an important part of our walk with God, but there is some confusion about it since Paul and James seem to contradict each other. How can we resolve the difficulty? This sermon shows that there are different types of works related to faith.
What’s the connection between long-suffering and meekness, and why does it matter? Long-suffering/patience is not possible without meekness, and meekness will inevitably lead to long-suffering.

The Church isn’t built on age, talent, or status—it’s built on family. In this sermon, we explore Paul’s instruction in 1 Timothy 5:1–2, showing how the Church is meant to reflect the beauty of spiritual family across generations. Young or old, each person has a God-given role—not because of what they do, but because of who they are in Christ. True strength in the Church comes when we honor one another as fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters, building a community where everyone belongs.
From the Nephilim to the tower of Babel, ancient men sought to make a name for themselves through power and self-exaltation. But their strength led to downfall, not glory. In this sermon, we trace the thread from the “mighty men of renown” in Genesis 6 to the builders of Babel, and contrast their pride with God’s quiet call to Abram: “I will make your name great.” True greatness doesn’t come from self-promotion, but from surrendering to God. And today, God still offers us something far better than fame—He gives us the Name above all names: Jesus.

You’ll gain practical insight and spiritual tools to grow in both patience and long-suffering.
