HTBB Talks

In this talk, Abel speaks about how feedback shapes us, as God’s people. Drawing from James 1, we are called to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger. Learn to receive feedback with wisdom, filter it with humility, and let God use the people around you to form Christlike character in you.

James 1:17-21

John 2:1-11

Proverbs 13:12-22

In this message on Proverbs 15, Alvin explores how the wisdom of a "soothing tongue" and the comfort of a God who sees us can transform our highest-friction moments. Learn how to "step on the brake" and move from words of pain to words of healing in your home, your office, and your city.

Proverbs 15:1-12

Wisdom is often thought of as making the right decision when it really matters. But in Proverbs, wisdom starts from a different place. Before asking, "what should I do?", it asks, "who am I becoming?" In this message from Proverbs 3, Abel begins a three-part series exploring biblical wisdom as formation, not just information. Our habits, trust, humility, and daily practices quietly shape our character over time - which then inform how we make decisions and navigate choices. Wisdom isn’t built in moments of pressure. It’s formed through ordinary faithfulness. Proverbs 3:1–14

On this first Sunday of the new year, Jacintha preaches from the life of Gideon, asking the question: how do we face the new year? Gideon’s story reminds us that God is with us, he sees more in you than you do, he is faithful despite your fear, and he sends you in his strength. Judges 6:11-23

It’s important to start well, but we need to finish well. what does it take?

The hope of Christmas is Jesus brings peace, hope, and light into every life - especially the weary and overlooked.
