“We’re not chasing something new for the sake of novelty — we’re reclaiming what has always been ours: a living, mystical and transformative relationship with the God who speaks, acts, and makes Himself known.” - @pehhan82 Ps. Peh Han brought a word titled Hearing God in a Disenchanted World, as part of our Hearing the Voice of God sermon series. In our pursuit of what’s practical, efficient, and logical, we often leave little room for the supernatural voice of God. We build our lives on culture and media, rather than on the Word. He reminded us to remember our spiritual heritage — we are a people shaped by God’s story, not the world’s. He called us to root our lives in Scripture, to rediscover the art of deep listening, and to lean into communion with God — not just as a discipline, but as a relationship marked by intimacy, trust, and revelation. There is an invitation to lean in and listen again, because God is deeply relational and still speaks. And to those who listen, He longs to reveal Himself, to guide, and to teach His ways.

“Discipleship begins not with doing, but with listening.”- @janicechinchern Janice kicked off our new sermon series, Hearing the Voice of God with a sharing on The Primacy of Hearing God. Sharing from John 10:1–5, she reminded us that God doesn’t first call us to a task, but He calls us to Himself. In a world full of noise, the question is not “Is God speaking?” but “Are we listening?” How then can we grow attentive to God? It starts with slowing down, silencing the noise, and cultivating space to be with and to hear God’s voice.

“Too often, we reduce scripture to the level of our experience. Instead, we are called to raise our expectation to the level of scripture.” - @andrejosiah Last Sunday, Ps. Andre kicked off the ‘Life of a Disciple’ sermon series, challenging us to align our lives with God’s heart, not as an exception, but as the standard. He cast a compelling vision of what it truly means to live for Jesus, becoming Spirit-formed disciples who are faithful in private and public—answering the call to raise our expectations to the level of Scripture. He left us with a powerful question to reflect on: Do you have a minimum standard for your discipleship? Our prayer is that we will be stirred to not settle for spiritual maintenance, but instead, to earnestly pursue growth and transformation, seeking to live with the radical obedience and faithful commitment that reflects the fullness of Christ in our lives.

“What are we giving our lives to and labouring toward? How we view the end determines how we live our lives.” - @jasonchua.sg Jason shared from Psalm 1 and 2 and called us to rediscover discipleship- living with God’s mission and the end in view, that we might give our lives wholly to His purpose. When we see the end through the lens of Scripture, we gain the wisdom to remain anchored, align with God’s will to glorify His Son, and stay faithful in a culture of compromise. May our response be to return to the place of prayer and giving ourselves fully to our calling to proclaim the worth of Jesus to the nations.

“If you do not fear God above all, you will end up fearing something else, and that fear will quietly become your god.” - @andrejosiah Ps. Andre brought us a word on fear and faith. In life, there will be moments where we are afraid and it will often times stand between us and action. Speaking from the book of Judges, we see how God led Gideon out of fear and into faith. Stepping out of fear is a journey of faith and trust - trusting in how God sees us, even though our surroundings and self-perception say otherwise; trusting that God is with us, even in the ordinary and everyday; and trusting that God will use us, even if our “yes” is weak and our step of faith is small. We pray that in the moments where we are fearful, we will know and remember that we do not need to be afraid because God is with us. We can have faith and draw strength from God’s presence, who is our courage. #wearethecitysg #sundaysatthecitysg

“When the church lives in unity, the world sees the Gospel embodied, and Jesus is glorified.” - @chrisvonne In week 4 of our series on the book of Titus, Ps. Christine brought us a word on Persevering Unity. Referencing Titus 3:9-11 and 14-15, we are shown how to build and guard unity among ourselves: by avoiding distractions, dealing with division and dissension, practicing gentleness with one another, and devoting ourselves to good works. May we continuously persevere towards unity, modeling what a missionally fruitful community can look like.
