Oftentimes what we need in our failure is not a word of encouragement, but a Word that brings you from your setback to your comeback. Get ready here's your chance to a comeback.
Blessings in My Burnout
July 23, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 21:1–14
A recent study shows that 3 out of 5 Americans fight burnout. Is it possible that this number is true even for believers? Now while it is not wrong to go through seasons of burnout or stress we cannot let the enemy of our souls steal our joy, our passion, our calling our identity! Praise God that His Word has tools to help us identify burnout and then the audacity to pray, "LORD BLESS MY BURNOUT!" Are you ready to go from burnout to blessing? Stay tuned, this is for you.
The Anatomy of Belief
July 16, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 20:24–31, 1 Peter 1:19, Ephesians 2:5–6
We can have the right community and great preaching, but if we do not individually respond to the Good News of Jesus with genuine conviction, we only have a shallow religion.
In this message we look at the way a person comes to believe and makes a heartfelt confession that leads to a personal relationship with Jesus.
Get ready to get confident in your faith, and get tools to keep growing in your personal relationship with Jesus.
Have You Seen the Risen Jesus?
July 9, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 20:18–23, Luke 24:36–42, Romans 8:26, Acts 4:4–5, Acts 2
There are many claims of dead celebrities faking their death and are still alive. Jesus' death was not so! He was witnessed by more than 500 people, in groups and individually. The real question is, does He still make appearances? Speculation aside, I want to take you to God's Word and show you how the risen Jesus is still seen in our dead world.
EVEN WHEN I DON'T KNOW
July 2, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 20:11–17, Exodus 25:17–20, Romans 10:17, Exodus 25:22
The cries of Mary at the tomb of Jesus is felt in our lives in many small and great ways.
There are times we have set out with great passion and zeal only to encounter a problem as big as a missing Saviour, and we somehow try and make sense of it, but conclude with a sigh, "I don't know"
Are you in a cemetery weeping at a dead end? Have your hands up with tears in your eyes not knowing what to do now?
God's word is here to comfort you through the power of the Holy Spirit, stay tuned there is encouragement and hope coming your way.
Living Billboards
June 25, 2023 • Joel Sikha • 2 Timothy 2:15, Romans 4:7–25, John 20:1–10, Luke 8:1–3, Luke 7:47
Every life tells a story and points people to something. Some live just to survive, get tired of pursuing a purposeful life, and then eventually do not care if their lives reflect anything of value. This should not be the case for a believer!
The christian life is one of purpose, and passion and it points everyone to the greatest news of a Saviour who saves us from our sins.
You are a billboard and this message is going to challenge you and give you practical tools to be a living testimony for Jesus.
Are you ready to get back to living a life of purpose that points people to Jesus?
STAND UP STAND UP FOR JESUS!
June 18, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 19:31–42, Zechariah 12:10, John 3:3, Deuteronomy 21:22–23, Exodus 12:26
In a world falling apart, believers need to be standing up for Jesus and be a billboard of the grace of God. But what does it mean to "Stand up for Jesus?" And when we stand for Jesus, what are things we need to stand against? And how do we start standing for Jesus?
So many questions, and all of them answered in a small but beautiful passage in John 19. Are you ready to stand up for Jesus? Stay tuned, you will be encouraged, motivated and transformed to take that stand today.
Are you in need of a new life? Stay tuned, this message is for you.
DESENSITIZED
June 11, 2023 • Joel Sikha • Matthew 6:33, Luke 19:39–40, Galatians 4:4–6, Matthew 27:38–44, John 19:19–30
You were created to explore and experience the wonders of God and to respond in worship, but what do you do when all you have is a dead-end religion that doesn't pave the way into the throne room of grace?
Even worse, what do you do when this dead-end religion has been killing the joy, the zeal, and the desire to see God do what he has promised to do? Is it possible that we have a problem? Have we been so dead that we are now DESENSITIZED to what God is doing?
Jesus on the cross in His dying breath shows us that He is a sensitive Saviour, dying for desensitized sinners so that we can find new life and hope in Him.
Are you in need of a new life? Stay tuned, this message is for you.
Pilate's Predicament
June 4, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 19:1–22, Leviticus 24:16, Matthew 27:18–19, Isaiah 26:10, Matthew 5:45
The idea of you judging Jesus sounds absurd at first, but it is something that you and I participate in everyday of our lives. In the choices we make and the values we prioritize, we are judging who and what will be the God of our lives.
In John 19, Pilate is literally judging Jesus, and he prioritizes his passivity, paranoia and peer pressure over Jesus. Have you found yourself in Pilate's Predicament? Stay tuned this message will help you get out of passive living and will help you prioritize Jesus over everything.
Fully in Control
May 28, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 18:28–40
What do you do when your life starts falling apart?
What do you do when it seems like even God is being manipulated by evil leaders and controlled by religious nuts?
Is God always in control of every and all situations?
The resounding answers is "YES!"
Watch the Saviour bound, judged and condemned, yet He is FULLY IN CONTROL! This message is intended to build encouragement in you to continue to trust in our God who is Fully In Control!
Making the Most of Your Life
May 21, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 18:13–27, Acts 2:40–41, Matthew 14:25–31, John 12:15–17
Every believer is called and commissioned to be a disciple and a disciple maker. In a fast moving world, that outsources its work to outside organizations, in an effort to be effective, the church has done the same. It has hired leaders to do the work that every believe should be participating in.
No wonder we have become manufacturers of cookie cut followers and zero disciples. Do you know that you have a calling to make disciples? Let this message convict you, challenge you and make you a disciple, that makes disciples. Your life is meant to be a billboard for the grace of God.
So Close, But Not There
May 14, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 18:1–12, Matthew 23:37, John 13:27–30, Matthew 27:1–5, Exodus 3:13–14
How terrible to be so close to winning but losing it in the end? How can disciples of Jesus be so close to the greatest teacher, even more, the greatest person to ever walk the earth and still not get Him?
Is it possible that today's disciples who grace the pews of a church every Sunday are close to the truth but not there? Stay tuned, it's going to get real.
The Expressive Christian
March 26, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 17:20–26
The Gospel has to be expressed in an authentic Christian life. However when you look around, it is hard to find true disciples of Jesus who are expressing Jesus. Churches today reflect the world more than the kingdom of God, led by shepherds who want their churchs to be another late night show that entertains the goats than raising sheep that hear their Shepherd's voice. Jesus prays for His disciples to truly express His Gospel in a way that brings Him glory. Are you wanting to express The True Gospel? Stay tuned, this message is for you.
You Will Make It!
March 19, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 17:6–19, 1 John 3:2–4, Galatians 3:27–29, Jude 24–25, Hebrews 12:14
Have you recently been weighted down with temptation, sorrow and hardships? Jesus has encouraging words for believers who are trying to live one day at a time.
What would it look like for you to know that You Will Make It?

The Gospel of Glory
March 12, 2023 • Joel Sikha • John 17:1–5, Ezekiel 34:16, Hebrews 1:3, Philippians 2:5–8, Matthew 9:6–8
The aim of religion was never meant to be a matter of debate, but a lifestyle empowered by the divine. Christianity loses it's essence when it becomes only about the facts, and not about the glory of God being restored to mankind who has fallen short of the glory of God.
How is your Christianity? Is it possible that you have stopped at just knowing the facts but lost the true meaning of The Gospel? Get ready for The World of God to challenge you and change you with
The good news of glory.
