Shepherding God's Flock - Sunday Sermon

June 2, 2024 • Pastor Joe Yoshihara

Church elders are charged with shepherding the flock that belongs to God that have been entrusted to our care. Godly elders willingly do this, not for financial gain or to wield authority over people, but out of a sincere love for the flock. Elder set an visible example of godliness and with an awareness that they serve under our Good Shepherd who will ultimately reward us.

Standing Firm - Sunday Sermon

June 16, 2024 • Pastor Joe Yoshihara

Satan, our adversary, seeks to devour us so we must be clear in our thinking, alert in our spirit, and firm in our resistance. Whether it's through the temptation of pride or suffering, we need to know that the enemy is always at work to destroy God's people and thwart God's kingdom work. But suffering and trials is not the end of the story and by God's grace He will restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish us either in this life or the life to come.

Following Godly Shepherds - Sunday Sermon

June 9, 2024 • Gordon Tsai

God's people in the church must humbly follow the elders who seek to shepherd according to God's will. This applies both to young people who have more of a tendency toward rebellion, and also to the rest of the church. God opposes proud people and often pride get's manifested in the attitude of disparaging church leaders and refusing to follow their leadership. Humility and submission postures ourselves to be lifted up by the Lord and begin to qualify us for positions of leadership.

Faith Tested by Fire - Sunday Sermon

May 26, 2024 • Wayne Kuo

Peter warns us that we should not be surprised by the fires of trials we will face. While the enemy can use these things to destroy our faith, God uses them to test our faith. Those with an authentic faith are able to look ahead to the time when Christ is seen and known by all as the sovereign Lord. Judgment begins with the household of God. This means that those who follow Jesus will suffer a form of judgment, possibly at the hands of the world, but also possibly at the hands of God, who will judge the authenticity of our faith. But this is nothing compared to the judgment that awaits non-believers.
