They Have Been with Jesus (Ps. Imee Francisco) Oct 13, 2026 3004 Ps. Imee reflects on the church being marked by God’s presence and centers the message on Acts 4:13, where the Sanhedrin marvel at Peter and John’s boldness and recognize they “have been with Jesus.” He retells the context after Pentecost: Peter and John, committed to prayer, heal the lame man at the Beautiful Gate, sparking public commotion and leading to their arrest and interrogation by the int

Flee and Pursue Oct 6, 2026 3338 Escaping Lust and Chasing God TogetherUsing 2 Timothy 2:22 (NKJV), Ps. Ryan teaches three commands: flee youthful lusts, pursue righteousness/faith/love/peace, and pursue “with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.” Lust is described as reckless and destructive.

Using Matthew 23:23, he argues Jesus did not cancel the tithe but rebuked hypocritical motives, affirming believers should practice “justice, mercy, and faithfulness” without neglecting the tithe. He di

I Wanna Tithe (Part 1) Sep 8, 2026 3877 Tithing in the New Covenant: From Compulsion to PartnershipPastor Ryan introduces a three-part teaching on the controversial topic of tithing, stressing there is no coercion and his goal is for people to say “I want to tithe,” not “I should tithe.” Using Hebrews 7:4–5 and Abraham’s tithe to Melchizedek, he argues New Covenant giving is not a compulsory Levitical tax or driven by Malachi-based fear
