Grace Christian Church of the Philippines

Trust the Text // 2 Timothy 3:16 // Dr. Mark Yarbrough

Sometimes our faith feels like glowing coals buried under ashes—still alive, but faint. This message is a reminder that our spiritual fire can be rekindled when we return to the basics: bold trust in God’s Word. Scripture isn’t just ancient text; it’s God’s breath in written form, shaping us, giving us clarity, and equipping us for every good work.

God's Amazing Grace // Ephesians 2:7-9 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

We often forget how much of life is a gift. God’s grace is not only free, it’s also deeply satisfying and never-ending. When we see life through that lens, comparison loses its power, gratitude takes root, and we find the courage to live with greater purpose.

No Greater Joy // 3 John 1:4 // Dr. Jay Sedwick

It’s been said that parenting is the hardest work you’ll ever do, but also the most rewarding. This message reminds us that the home is the first classroom of faith and love, and that our influence—whether as parents, mentors, or friends—shapes how the next generation sees God.

Strike Them Now // Habakkuk 1:1-11 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

When life feels unfair and evil seems to get away unchecked, it’s easy to wonder where God is in all of it. Habakkuk wrestled with those same questions, and God’s response was both unexpected and reassuring. This message shows us why trusting God’s wisdom and justice--though often beyond our understanding--can bring peace and hope even when the world feels upside down.

Complaining About Blessings // Numbers 11:1-34 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

It’s easy to slip into complaining, especially in a culture used to comfort and convenience. But it often does more harm than we realize. The Israelites’ story reminds us how grumbling distorts reality, spreads negativity, and leaves us dissatisfied. Learning to shift toward gratitude can open our eyes to God’s goodness and help us experience joy no matter the circumstances.

Offer Your Bodies: A Missing Link to Spirituality // Romans 12:1-2; Matthew 26:31-45 // Dr. Timoteo Gener

We often think of spirituality as something that happens only in the heart or mind. But the Bible reminds us that true transformation touches every part of who we are—including our bodies. This message explores how our daily habits, reactions, and even physical routines can either hold us back or help us grow. And through practices like prayer, fasting, and service, God can retrain us to live in step with Him.

No to Entitlement // Luke 17:11-19 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Entitlement can creep into our hearts so subtly that we don’t even notice it. We start believing we’re owed recognition, blessings, or special treatment. But Jesus shows us a different way—the way of humility and gratitude. This message from Luke 17 reminds us how small words like “please,” “thank you,” and “I’m sorry” can transform our hearts, our relationships, and even our generation.

The Value of a Friend // Ecclesiastes 4:4-16 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Loneliness doesn’t always look like being alone. You can be surrounded by people and still feel unseen, unheard, unknown. We all long for friendships that are real, deep, and lasting—because that’s how God designed us. In this message from Ecclesiastes 4:4-16, we explore what makes friendships worth keeping, how to build ones that last, and the difference they can make when life gets hard.

Hope in the Waiting // Psalm 130:1-8 // Min. Kenneth Sy

Waiting can feel like the hardest part, especially when there’s no clear end in sight. But what if hope isn’t just something you find after the waiting is over? What if it’s something God wants to grow in you while you wait? This message from Psalm 130 walks through the kind of hope that doesn’t ignore the pain, but anchors you through it with honesty, grace, and deep trust in God’s promises.

Vengeance is Mine // Judges 15:1-20; Romans 12:17-21 // Rev. JP Lim

When someone wrongs us, it’s so easy to feel that payback is the only way to make things right. But have you noticed how revenge rarely fixes anything? It just keeps the hurt alive. What if there’s a better way to respond? A way that leads to peace instead of payback?

A Wake-Up Call // Acts 5:1-11 // Rev. Victor Ramoy

Sometimes it takes a wake-up call to remind us what really matters. When we get caught up in appearances, when applause feels more satisfying than obedience, or when small compromises feel harmless, it’s easy to forget what’s at stake. But God’s wake-up calls aren’t meant to scare us. They’re His way of calling us back before it’s too late. What if He’s been sending you one all along?

Humility to Obey // Philippians 2:5-11 // Dr. Neil Ty

Ever notice how hard it is to obey when it means letting go of your own plans, status, or comfort? This message is a reminder that following Jesus isn’t about clinging to our own importance. It’s about emptying ourselves like He did. True humility is the doorway to obedience…and to being used by God in ways we never imagined.

A God-Kind of Change // Deuteronomy 10:12–22 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

What we believe about God should change how we live. His majesty calls us to honor Him in every part of our lives. His love moves us to love the people He loves. His faithfulness invites us to trust Him—even in seasons of uncertainty. Deuteronomy 10:12–22 reminds us of who God is so that what we know about Him moves from head knowledge to heart transformation.

Loving the Unlovable // Hosea 3:1-5 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

Loving the unlovable isn’t natural, but it is possible. Through the story of Hosea and Gomer, we’re reminded that God's love doesn’t give up, even when we do, because it is a love that is unconditional, sacrificial, and transformational. And when we truly experience that kind of love? It gives us the strength to love even those who’ve hurt us.

True Success // Colossians 3:1-17 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

What if success isn’t about how far you get in life, but who you’re becoming along the way? In a world that tells us to chase status, wealth, and recognition, God invites us to a different kind of success—one shaped by character, peace, thankfulness, purpose, and faithfulness. This message helps us re-center on what truly matters and reminds us that we’re not defined by the world’s standards, but by God’s.
