In Acts 25, we find Paul once again on trial, this time under political pressure and hidden agendas. Preaching from this passage, Jingyang highlights the striking parallels between Paul’s trial and that of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke. These connections remind us of the ongoing mission of God through Christ, the early church, and now us. The Gospel, the good news of God’s love through Jesus, remains the same. The real question is: in what specific way is God calling you to live it out and share it today? Through prayer, discernment, and community, we are invited to seek the how while staying rooted in the unchanging what.

In this episode, Pastor Koob Vang leads us through Paul’s trial before Felix in Acts 24. Though unjustly imprisoned, Paul remains anchored in truth; while Felix, a man of power and status, is revealed to be captive to fear, greed, and spiritual compromise. Their contrast challenges us to reflect: What truly holds us back from living in the freedom of the Gospel?

In this episode, we follow Paul from public testimony to private trials before councils and commanders. Through persecution, Roman citizenship, and even a nephew’s warning, we see how God uses both earthly tools and divine intervention to fulfill His call. Even in chains, Paul presses forward, reminding us that nothing can stop the Gospel from reaching its destination.

As we begin Part IV of our Acts series, this episode unpacks the structure and movement of the book through the lens of Acts 1:8. From Pentecost to Paul’s arrival in Rome, we trace how the Gospel advances by the Spirit’s power, even in the face of adversity. Get the context behind Paul’s final journey and how it ties into the bigger story of God’s mission to the ends of the Earth.

In this message from Ephesians 2, we explore how Paul uses a striking past-vs-present parallel to unveil the radical transformation offered through the Gospel. Once dead in our sins and walking in darkness, we are now made alive with Christ, seated with Him in the heavenly realms, and created anew as God’s masterpiece for good works prepared in advance.

But the grace of God doesn’t stop at the individual level. Through Christ’s cross, the dividing wall of hostility between peoples has been torn down. Those who were once far off are brought near. In Him, we are no longer strangers and outsiders but fellow citizens, united as one household—being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

This sermon invites us to step out of the past and into the present reality of grace—not only for our salvation but also for our participation. What would it look like to truly walk in the good works God has already prepared for you? And how can the church live as a reconciled and Spirit-filled community in a fractured world?

In this message, we reflect on Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 1—that the “eyes of our hearts” would be enlightened to truly grasp the hope, inheritance, and resurrection power given to us in Christ. Knowing about God isn’t enough; we are invited into deep, heart-level transformation.

Through Christ, we have been adopted, redeemed, and sealed by the Holy Spirit—and now we are called to live boldly from our position in the heavenly places. This Gospel is not just for Sundays, but for every moment of our lives. Will we walk in the riches of His inheritance and the immeasurable greatness of His power today?
