ECB Sermon Podcast

Scott Hayden is kicking off a new sermon series called, “Spiritual Lessons from our Walk with God” with Part 1: to Judge or Not to Judge?

“Judgement” might as well be a bad word in this day and age, but the matter is not if we judge, but how we judge. Firstly, we must always remember that “the standard [we] use in judging is the standard by which [we] will be judged.” (Matthew 7:2) so we must judge righteously.

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gave clear guidance on judgement - what is the right kind, and what is the wrong. Healthy judging is formative: self-assessment, and coaching: building others up in love while always considering oneself. Are you engaged in healthy judging?

Have you lost perspective? Are you walking with purpose or just wandering?Join us this last Sunday of 2025 as Pastor Pablo concludes our Advent series with a message titled “The Returning King.” We’ll reflect on the hope ahead and rediscover how a clear vision of the future brings meaning and direction to our lives today.

Jesus will return to bring the lasting peace promised in the Scriptures. As we step into a new year, He invites us to live with an eternal perspective. Have you lost your focus or are you living ready to meet Him when he comes?

Enjoy this Christmas Eve message by Pastor Pablo, delivered at ECB's Candlelight Service on December 24, 2025.

Darkness in our lives takes many forms, but all are overcome by letting in the LIGHT.

Jesus said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12.

Do you have the light of Jesus in your life?

Are you close to God or far from Him? Join us as pastor Pablo continues the series on Advent, reflecting on the theme of God’s love.

God’s love is greater than anything we can imagine. Out of that love, He sent Jesus, whose name means “God saves.” This week, choose to rest, trust, and live from His love!

The joy of Christmas is genuine, gigantic, transformational and given to all people of all nations. It is an enduring Joy that transcends our circumstances. We invite you to our third Advent Sunday Service led by Scott Hayden who will unpack for us the words of the angel, "I have good news of great joy that shall be for all people."

The Joy we celebrate at Christmas is more than a feeling or reaction. It is an abiding assurance of God's love and it's living in the truth of His salvation. To truly rejoice, rehearse your reasons for joy and reflect on God's unfailing love.

Is true peace eluding you? Are stress, inner turmoil and anxiety robbing you of peace? Are you struggling with conflict? For our second Advent Sunday, ECB has the privilege of welcoming Dr. Nelson Estrada to offer a message called “The Peace of God”. We will learn of the promised peace the Messiah brings to the world, and how we can avail ourselves of it.

God’s peace is not a blanket guarantee for all humanity, but rather a profound gift offered to “people of goodwill”. The peace of Christmas originates from the Prince of Peace – God with us, Who graciously gives it to those who welcome God’s message, trust in His promises, and open their hearts to His love.

Where do you turn when life feels uncertain? This week, Pastor Pablo will launch the Advent Season with a sermon series on the theme, “Peace on Earth." We'll look at two ancient prophecies about the birth of Jesus and discover how to experience living hope.

When we trust that Jesus is with us always and that He has a plan for our future, we can rest in His presence every day of our lives. Is Jesus your living hope?

Feeling stressed or low on peace? Jesus says it may have something to do with who or what is in control of your life. Join us as Pastor Pablo wraps up the “Jesus in All of Life" series. Discover the two masters competing for your heart.

When God is our Master, we seek His Kingdom first and trust Him with our future. Money becomes a tool, not the goal. And as we practice generosity, God frees our hearts from fear and control. A simple question remains: Who is your Master?

The human heart often pursues the good life in ways that distort even our closest relationships. But is there another way? Join us as we look to Jesus to resurrect our relationships from the inside out.

Jesus doesn’t just repair relationships; He resurrects them. As we look to Him for a new way of life and surrender to His Spirit, our relationships become windows through which the world can see Jesus in all of life.

Does your faith matter in your workplace? This week we kick off a brand-new sermon series, exploring practical aspects of ECB’s vision: “Jesus in All of Life”. We have the privilege of hearing from Pastor Andrew Gardener from the Vine Church in Hong Kong who will delve into how urgent it is for our faith to be public in this time of history. Pastor Andrew will address this by unpacking Jesus’ timeless call for his disciples to be salt and light in the world. Come and receive a fresh call for the Gospel to take hold in your sphere of influence.

As Christians our faith truly matters in all areas of life. We are to be salt - inherently valuable, bringing flavor and preservation to a tasteless and decaying world. And we are to be light - shining into the darkest of places, showing people a new and hopeful way. How are you blessing your workplace as salt and light?
