What values should shape our times of singing together? How should we sing? What should we sing? We may think that decisions like these should be pragmatically driven (what works?), but they’re really supposed to be theologically driven (what’s true?). Listen as Pastor Josh teaches on the three dimensions of singing.

Passage: Ephesians 5:8-20
Series: Standalone
The Bible gives us many portraits of a godly woman. A helper for her husband. A wise and generous merchant. A radically devoted follower of Christ. These verses give us another portrait of a woman who intentionally dresses modestly and devotes herself to good works. Why is modesty important when it comes to femininity, and how do we teach about its importance to our children in a wise and helpful way? Listen as Pastor Josh teaches on how true modesty and true beauty must always be rooted in the gospel.

Passage: 1 Timothy 2:8
Series: Standalone
All Christians face a common struggle – the mismatch between hearing and doing the word. Often, we hear a lot but do little. This struggle can push us to a very dangerous direction, that we show little concern about this mismatch. We may even convince ourselves with biblical material, that merely hearing the Word without doing anything is enough. Listen as Pastor Fengyu walks us through James 1:22-27 and shows us that God desires us to be doers of His word after hearing it.
