City Harvest Church Weekend Sermons

The prophet Isaiah declared, “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned." Pastor Kong Hee shares that Christmas is God sending his Son Jesus to bring light into our darkness, to give us a better life, filled with love, joy, peace and a purpose for living.

In this sermon, Pastor Kong Hee shares how the Gospel of John presents the Christmas story in its opening chapter, revealing three key truths about Jesus: He is Light, Life, and Love.

In this Advent message, we are reminded that God’s light breaks into our deepest darkness—instantly dispelling fear and renewing hope. Seasons of unexpected and conflicted surprises invite us to respond to our own darkness with faith and humility, trusting God even when the path is unclear. And instead of facing our struggles alone, we are called to step out of isolation and enter the community of light, where encouragement, clarity, and fresh hope await.

In A Failure of Nerve, Dr Edwin Friedman reminds us that “in an anxious world, what is most needed are non-anxious leaders.” Pastor Kong Hee challenges us to walk in the way of Jesus by embracing His self-differentiation and non-anxious presence through five practices: 1) slow-down spirituality, 2) Sabbath rest, 3) silence and solitude, 4) devotional love, and 5) detachment.

Biblical lament is pouring out our hearts to God, laying before Him all our pains and sorrows, trusting in His unfailing love, and knowing that He listens and answers. In this sermon, Pastor Bobby Chaw highlights four key elements that make up biblical lament.

When you walk through dry or weary seasons, remember: God still meets you at the altar. Rebuilding your altar is the path through every wilderness. Pastor Bobby Chaw reminds us that the altar requires three things — making communion with God a PRIORITY, allowing His Word to bring PURITY, and offering your life in SURRENDER. The fire of the Spirit falls where there is a sacrifice.

In this final instalment of The Emblems of the Holy Spirit series, Pastor Kong Hee shares about the Fire of the Holy Spirit—His presence, purity, power, passion, and prompting. The fire of the Spirit rekindles our hearts, setting them ablaze and alive once more.

Is it God’s will to heal? When we read the four Gospels, we see that in all His miracles, Jesus ministered with great power and authority. As the sick cooperated in faith and acted on His word—doing what they could not do before—“as many as touched Him were made whole” (Mark 6:56). The presence of Jesus is a healing presence; the nature of Jesus is a healing nature!

In this paper presentation, Pastor Kong Hee shares on “simultaneous glossolalia” (speaking in tongues), a hallmark of the Pentecostal experience that connects believers to the life and vitality of the apostolic church in the Book of Acts. Why abandon a practice that has served the movement so well? Rather than diminish it, Pastor Kong Hee proposes that Pentecostals should seek to recover and deepen it.
