Resurrection Church Sai Kung Sermons

Jesus both wants to help you and he is able to help you. Hold fast to him and draw near to him.03-05-2026 - Lucas Durant

You were made for more than endless work. Enter God's rest.26-04-2026 - Lucas Durant

We hide our own weakness. We distance ourselves from the weakness of others. But the glory of Jesus is that he took on our weakness, and he became our perfect saviour.19-04-2026 - Lucas Durant

God has spoken at many times in many ways. But Jesus is God's final word. We must pay more attention to him.12-04-2026 - Lucas Durant

We hold out hope for healing and help, until it's too late. But what happens when it is too late? God turns up. 22-01-2026 - Lucas Durant

We're all looking for satisfaction. But it's not easy to find. No matter how much we have or achieve, we keep being confronted with the question - what next? Jesus says that only he can give lasting satisfaction. 08-03-2026 - Lucas Durant

Life is sometimes very difficult. Some of us have had real evil done to us. Some of us have done real evil our selves. Yet the Bible tells us that our good God is in control, intending everything for his good and saving purposes. 01-03-2026 - Lucas Durant

If you recognised the grace of God in your life and began to give yourself completely over to it - how would that change you? It was on his deathbed that Jacob saw the truth most clearly, and it made him cross his hands.22-02-2026 - Lucas Durant

What are you staking your future on? As god's people travel down to Egypt, God reassures them that he has provided, presently provides and will go on providing. No one who stakes their future on Jesus Christ will be put to shame.15-02-2026 - Lucas Durant

God often shows grace to us in mysterious ways. His work in our lives can sometimes seem harsh, it can sometimes seem surprising, but in the end he is leading us to joy.08-02-2026 - Lucas Durant

The God of the Bible reveals himself and his sovereign plans to the world. But how should we respond? 01-02-2026 - Lucas Durant

What kind of person does God choose to carry out his work in the world? How can we tell whether he is present with a person? What does it look like for a person to have his blessing and favour? We find answers to these things in the test, travesty and truth of Genesis 39.25-01-2026 - Lucas Durant

What happens when God's promise seems to be on the point of failure? When his people have made such a mess of things with their sin and their foolishness that there is no hope of recovery. That is when the grace of God breaks through and brings about transformation.18-01-2026 - Lucas Durant

If God is in control, why do things seem so messed up? Joseph's story is one of the longest treatments of that question in the Bible. The story of Genesis 37 shows sin running rampant and God seems completely absent. But look a little closer, and you will see his intimate, personal involvement at every point.11-01-2026 - Lucas Durant

Some commands can make you rejoice. Isaiah gives us three commands from God - Rise and shine; Open your eyes; Wait and see. If we hear and obey these commands, we will have reason to rejoice.04-01-2026 - Lucas Durant

Jesus Christ was uniquely equipped to be the saviour we need. 28-12-2025 - Lucas Durant

God speaks comfortable words to his suffering people.21-12-2025 - Lucas Durant

In all the injustice and dangers of this world, we long for a perfectly righteous judge and a perfectly secure home. The scriptures affirm that we shall one day have them.07-12-2025 - Lucas Durant

While many people search for meaning in the past or struggle to create meaning in the present, Christian people locate the ultimate meaning of their own lives and the world in future. The certainty of the Last Day should pull us forward, transforming our past and our present.30-11-2025 - Lucas Durant

Jude warns the church in the strongest possible terms about the danger posed by false teachers. He charges each and every Christian to contend for the faith. But how do we contend? 23-11-2025 - Leslie Siu

The Christian faith is constituted by a body of truth concerning one-off historical events that was handed down by the Apostles to the church. The scriptures contain all that is necessary for life and godliness. Yet certain people claim that through new "mystical" revelations or deeper "spiritual" insight, we can move beyond the faith once delivered. The Bible calls this false teaching. Jude explains why it is a very serious problem.16-11-2025 - Lucas Durant

Only 30 years or so after the Resurrection, Jude is writing to churches that are in more danger than they recognise. Already they have been infiltrated by certain people who are using the grace of God as a license for immorality. What should Christians do when the church is being influenced by (and maybe even led by) lawless and Christless people? We must contend. 09-11-2025 - Lucas Durant

If we are going to live wisely, we need to understand that our actions have consequences. Our deeds are leading us to a certain destiny. Proverbs reveals the inescapable moral order woven into the fabric of reality itself. And it points us to the only way to receive a better outcome than all our deeds deserve. 05-10-2025 - Lucas Durant

God calls us to love, treasure and cherish him with all that we are, and all that we have, with all our being, and all of our doing, in each and every aspect of life. If we don't, both success and failure will be a danger to us.28-09-2025 - Kevin Murphy

There are certain ways of living that are characteristic of the wise. You can observe them in generation after generation. What are the "family traits" of wise people down through history? Solomon gives us three.21-09-2025 - Lucas DURANT

The scriptures tell us that it is possible to grow in wisdom, but it won't happen by accident. God is pleased to give us wisdom! But we need to know and accept His terms and conditions. 07-09-2025 - Lucas Durant

We live in a time when we can observe evils happening all over the world in real time. Provoking our outrage has become a core business strategy within the attention economy. But Psalm 37 gives us wisdom for how to walk in the way of peace. Peace within, Peace without, Lasting Peace.17-08-2025 - Lucas Durant

Psalm 23 is the probably the most well known poem in the world. Why? Because it speaks to the universal human experience of feeling weak and afraid. And in the midst of deepest darkness, it gives us a message of peace and hope.10-08-2025 - Lucas Durant

The famous philosopher and atheist Bertrand Russell was once asked what he would say if, after death, he found himself standing before almighty God. Russell replied - "Not enough evidence, God! Not enough evidence." Many people share the sentiment, but is that right? According to the Bible God is a speaking God. Psalm 19 shows us that God is speaking constantly, universally and verbally. 03-08-2025 - Lucas Durant

"To thine own self be true." But who are you? The scriptures teach us that before we can know who we are, we need to know who God is. Psalm 8 shows us God and our selves.27-07-2025 - Lucas Durant

Where are you looking for satisfaction? The Rolling Stones famously sang I can't get no satisfaction; the author of the book of Ecclesiastes agrees. Satisfaction is fleeting. Or is it?20-07-2025 - Lucas DurantPre-recorded for broadcast during T10 storm.

Almost every profession and job has a code of conduct which sets out the expectations for us in our work. But our most important roles - spouse, parent, child, etc - don't come with one. In Ephesians 5:21-6:9, Paul gives us a household code for Christian people. He sets out the principle, then he shows what it looks like for different members of the household to apply it.29-06-2025 - Lucas Durant

The darkness of sin is much more of a problem than we generally recognise. We can see the darkness not only in sinful deeds, but also in sinful words and thoughts. The problem goes all the way down into us, and all the way out across society. But Christians, the Bible says, are light. And by God's power, even our darkness is made light.22-06-2025 - Lucas Durant

Many people have struggled with certain besetting sins and character flaws for years, if not decades. Can people ever really change? Paul says Christians can and must change. And he shows us the engine for change that transforms us from the inside out. 15-06-2025 - Lucas Durant

"Live a life worthy of the calling by which you have been called." Knowing the high calling on the church in Ephesians 1-3, how could we ever live up to it? By God's grace we have been given gifts to equip us for the worthy life.08-06-2025 - Lucas Durant

As Paul moves from explaining God's big plan for the universe to the practical implications of that plan for the church, he prays. His prayer gives us a great model of how to pray for our church in particular and the church universal. 01-06-2025 - Lucas Durant

When we read the book of Acts, we find that in the earliest days of the church there was a Copernican revolution in terms of understanding God's plan for His People. The mystery that was formerly hidden but now revealed is that Christ's salvation is open to all people without distinction. Jews and Gentiles have been equally incorporated into third-kind of humanity, one new family - the church.25-05-2025 - Lucas Durant

Everywhere we look in the world, people are divided. Public discourse, politics, international trade - it's all become increasingly hostile. What is God's answer to our divisions? The Cross of Christ. There at the cross, our hostilities were put to death and we were reconciled to God and one another.18-05-2025 - Lucas Durant

Becoming a Christian always requires a miraculous work of God. Paul reminds Christians of what we were, tells us what are and explains what we are for.11-05-2025 - Lucas Durant

What is God's blueprint for your life? Knowing God's master plan will enable you to live confidently and give you a sense of direction. Ephesians summarises God's big plan.27-04-2025 - Jack Wong

If Christ was raised from the dead, then death is not the end and there is an eternity of joy ahead for all Christians. It's a wonderfully comforting thought. But is it true? And if it is, what does it mean?20-04-2025 - Lucas Durant

Where do we expect to find God? Are there dark places in the world and in yourself where you are certain he cannot be found? The cross crucifies what we know about how God works. 13-04-2025 - Lucas Durant

What do you do with overwhelming guilt? Remorse is not enough. Bring it to the cross. 30-03-2025 - Lucas Durant

Amid false testimony, sham trials, denials and cursing - Jesus remained silent. Understood rightly, his silence sounds like grace.23-03-2025 - Lucas Durant

How can we understand Jesus' deep and sudden sorrow in Gethsemane? It is a foretaste of the cup of God's wrath that he would soon drink for us. And knowing exactly what it would cost him, he went through with it.16-03-2025 - Lucas Durant

Jesus uses the passover meal to give us an interpretive grid for his death. Christ's death is the source of salvation and the the centre of salvation history.09-03-2025 - Lucas Durant

What is Jesus worth? Some will calculate his worth according to whether he helps or hinders their goals. Love ends calculations. 02-03-2025 - Lucas Durant

When the end of all things comes, and Jesus Christ returns, what should we expect? The judgement of all people. If all will be judged, then it is important to know who will judge and what his criteria will be. 23-02-2025 - Lucas Durant
