Pastor Steven Simpson

Speaker

On Resurrection Day, we don’t just celebrate an event - we celebrate the foundation of our faith. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is not optional, symbolic, or secondary. It is everything. Without it, there is no hope, no forgiveness, no salvation. But because Christ is risen, everything changes.

Paul makes it clear that everything depends on the resurrection. If Christ has not been raised, then our faith is empty and we are still in our sins. Without the resurrection, there is no forgiveness, no victory over death, and no real hope. The cross alone would leave the story unfinished.

But Christ has been raised, and that changes everything. His resurrection is proof that His sacrifice was accepted, that sin has been paid for, and that death has been defeated. Because He lives, our faith is not in vain, our sins are forgiven, and we have true hope.

Now the resurrection calls for a response. We are invited to trust in Him, turn from sin, and live in the power of new life. This is not just something to understand - it is something that transforms how we live.

Citizens of Heaven

By Pastor Steven Simpson

In the Sermon, Pastor Steve opens with how Paul talks about Citizenship as a Roman Vs Citizenship in Heaven outlined with Philippians. Continuing through the sermon, we have a motif Peter emphasizes that we are suffering from being counterculture to the world and that we need to be wary of willful disobedience and submit to God and respect rightful human authority. We need to continue to remember that we have been purchased by the blood of Christ. Pastor Steve continues to talk about how we are to Honor everyone as Genesis says we are all created in God's image, and that there is a special bond between brother and sisters (Brotherhood). We shall willfully fall in line with God's Established order - we submit because Christ submitted and live out our faith peacefully knowing who we are in Christ Jesus.

Dear Friends

By Pastor Steven Simpson

Writing to scattered, marginalized believers, Peter opens with two of the most tender words in Scripture. This message explores what it means to receive that identity — to be a people who once had no standing before God but have now been embraced by his mercy, and what it looks like to live as foreigners and exiles who belong somewhere else.
