你有沒有想過，我們跟隨耶穌，是只為了得到祝福嗎？還是你只在乎「神能做什麼事」，而不是「我該做什麼事」。如果你只抱著這樣的想法，那你可能不是在跟隨耶穌，而是在跟隨自己。 這次的講道，讓我們深入探討：跟隨耶穌到底要付上什麼代價？以及學習讓耶穌成為我們的「主」，而不是解決問題的「老師、醫生或顧問」。因為耶穌如果不是我們生命的「主」，那我們也無法真正經歷祂的拯救與應許。 邀請你點開這段影片，讓我們不再只是耶穌的「粉絲」，而是能成為好好跟隨耶穌的「門徒」！ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

Our world is loud—but James 3 reminds us the real issue isn't the noise around us, it's the heart within us. In this message, Pastor Peter unpacks the disproportionate power of our words, why tongue trouble is really a heart problem, and three guardrails to speak life: surrender your heart, submit your mouth, and set a guard.

Pastor Peter shared principles from Matthew 5 about being salt and light in the world around us.

Real faith doesn't stop in your head or heart—it shows up in your hands. In “James: Faith That Works (James 2),” Pastor Peter unpacks why the church must reject favoritism, how mercy triumphs over judgment, and how Abraham and Rahab prove that genuine faith acts. If you're ready to move from belief to obedience, this message is for you.

Pastor Peter encouraged us from Mark 12 to reignite our passion for God, and gave us 7 passion-killers to watch out for.

臨終遺言，都是一個人用一生換取的禮物。今天我們要透過大衛的臨終遺言，學習更多的智慧。 大衛知道一位君王如同黎明曙光、雨後的光輝！但到了大衛的晚年，他知道自己不是這樣的王，只有基督才是這樣的王！大衛的一生都帶著孩子般的信心，想到什麼就動手去做；但晚年的他，神卻挑戰他學習更成熟的信心，那就是「放手」，放下那些不屬於自己的角色，更深刻地理解自己無法成為誰，也更清楚地認識到基督是誰！ 不論你有怎樣的黑暗過去，這些黑暗都無法影響神的光。透過系列講道《A BROKEN HALLELUJAH 夢碎之歌》的最終篇，經歷耶穌基督就是黎明曙光，重新照亮我們生命的黑暗！ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

In this episode Pastor Josh and Pastor Peter discuss Westside's decision to begin practicing communion on a weekly basis. Why do we do it? And what do we think it will do to us?

Pastor Peter encouraged us from the book of James, reminding us to be set apart as we draw near to God.

「我無法成為我想要的那個樣子！」面對現實的挑戰跟困難，你正經歷夢想幻滅，而感到失望嗎？ 大衛是一位勇士，面對自己兒子押沙龍的造反時，他並沒有選擇「面對」，而是選擇了「逃避」。此刻的大衛，不是「勇士版本的自己」，而是「逃跑版本的自己」。大衛不只是對兒子感到失望，更是對自己感到失望！ 我們會對別人失望，其實也對自己失望。透過這個系列講道《A BROKEN HALLELUJAH 夢碎之歌》的第三篇，好像走進人生的幻夢，讓我們一起在失望裡，依舊唱出那句破碎的哈利路亞！ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

「要是…就好了！」讓我們的懊悔的事都不同，但心聲都一樣深刻，令人心痛！ 我們的人生無法存檔和讀檔，更無法ㄧ鍵重來。即使心在痛，日子還是要過。這次讓我們透過大衛喪子的故事，一起學習面對生命中的懊悔。有時候我們只能走向神的面前，放下自己無法改變的事，並願意讓神來改變自己！ 透過這個系列講道《A BROKEN HALLELUJAH 夢碎之歌》的第二篇，好像走進人生的暗夜，讓我們在那些破碎懊悔的時刻，依然能夠唱出破碎的哈利路亞！

Pastor Peter Verhulst preaches from Numbers 22-23, “Seeing Through a Donkey's Eyes.” —————————— […]

This podcast episode with Pastor Peter delves into the "house to house" season, a prophetic encouragement for the church to make diligent room for the Lord's spirit to move. Drawing extensively from David's Tabernacle as a blueprint for Jesus's church, the message outlines seven distinctives that connect us to the New Testament church, including open access into God's presence, ongoing singing and intercession mirroring heaven's throne room, prophetic direction, and the engagement of all nations. Pastor Peter emphasizes that all ministry flows out of ministering to the Lord first, preparing the church to fulfill its calling as a "house of prayer for all nations" (Isaiah 56:7) and implementing the "house of peace" strategy modeled by Jesus (Matthew 10, Luke 10). This strategy centers on prayer and hospitality in homes, acting as gates into communities where the gospel can freely spread, leading to a "quiet revival" where God's presence itself becomes the evangelism strategy. With the local area experiencing massive growth, the church is called to engage this "harvest field", making a personal decision like King David (Psalms 132) to prioritize Jesus, becoming like Him, and making room for Him in every aspect of life.

We are excited to have had Pastor Peter de Fin, Lead Pastor of Acts Christian Church in Johannesburg, South Africa, ministering at with us. He is an apostolic leader giving oversight to over 5000 people meeting across 10 campuses and travels all around the world preaching and teaching on the power of the Holy Spirit. He is also the great-grandson of the late British Evangelist, Smith Wigglesworth; an influential figure in Pentecostalism for his healing ministry.

Sermon for August 17, 2025 | Preaching text: Luke 12:49-56

當生命中的難堪、破碎跟羞愧，都是自己一手造成的時候，除了逃跑以外，是否還有什麼方法可以面對生命的殘酷呢？ 大衛，是以色列的王，也是一位勇士。他的手能爭戰、能彈琴、能治理國家；但同樣的手，也因為一次錯誤的決定，染上了無辜人的血，甚至連他的家庭，支離破碎。其實大衛和我們沒有太大不同。那些讓人不堪回首的黑歷史，往往正是我們曾經覺得「這輩子絕對不會做的事」。大衛也是如此，他和你我一樣，都是會跌倒、會後悔的人，仍然能在這樣的破碎中，開口讚美。 不是只有在自信時，才能唱歌，破碎羞愧的時候，也能唱出神的憐憫和恩典！透過這個系列講道《A BROKEN HALLELUJAH 夢碎之歌》的第一篇，我們一起學習唱出破碎的哈利路亞！

Drift happens—but disconnection doesn't have to be your final destination. In “The Way Back: I'm Ready to Return,” Pastor Peter walks through Psalm 51 and shows how real repentance starts with God's goodness, not our guilt. From David's failure to the prodigal's return, discover how confession opens the door to cleansing, renewal, and the joy of salvation. Includes practical steps for what to do the moment you sin and a powerful invitation to come home to God. Key texts: Psalm 51; Luke 15; Romans 3:22–23; 1 John 1:9; Isaiah 1:18

Join Pastor Peter as he explores the profound call to make room for the Lord's presence in our lives, families, and communities, emphasizing that greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world. Drawing inspiration from a couple married for 63 years who advised to 'keep loving one another and never give up,' Peter highlights the simple yet profound truth that life is about knowing God, obeying Jesus, and seeing His goodness. The sermon, titled 'House to House,' unveils a prophetic season for the church, encouraging believers to become an unshakable house of prayer for all nations, drawing on Mark 16:15 and the Book of Acts for inspiration. Pastor Peter delves into King David's example, illustrating how David, a man after God's own heart, prioritized the Lord's presence by committing to find a dwelling place for the Ark of the Covenant (Psalms 132) and making it his first act as king (1 Chronicles 13). This commitment contrasts sharply with King Saul's neglect and underscores the importance of not treating the Lord's presence casually. The message encourages practical daily prayer, envisioning our homes as places where God's throne is central, and culminates in two invitations: a call to deeper intimacy and rededication, allowing God to take His rightful place in your everyday life, and an invitation to personally know Jesus as Savior and follow Him. Learn how honoring Jesus means allowing Him to work in us both to will and to do what pleases Him (Philippians 3), and that prayer is a privilege that changes history.

Sermon for August 10, 2025 | Preaching text: Luke 12:32-40

Have you ever realized you've drifted—spiritually, emotionally, or relationally—and wondered, “How did I get here?” In this message, Pastor Peter unpacks the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15 and shows us that disconnection doesn't have to be our destination. Discover how one honest step can lead you back to God's presence, peace, and purpose. You're never too far gone—this is the way back.

It was the kickoff of our Outdoor Family Gatherings and Pastor Peter took a look at the story of Jesus, Mary, and Martha, helping us glean some insight on how to find what's truly valuable.

這世界上有許多的聲音，但不是每一句都值得留在心裡。有時困住我們的聲音，不是別人的一句話，而是我們也認同這些話，然後一次又一次地對自己重複說，最後就刻在心底。 這次主日講道，讓我們用掃羅王的故事當作借鏡，並一起學習：不是每句話都要回應，但我們都要留意那些說給自己聽的話，因為這會深深影響我們看自己的眼光，以及影響我們人生的狀態。現在，我們就點開這次主日講道，讓神的話，成為我們刻在心底的聲音！

Sermon for July 27, 2025 | Preaching text: Luke 11:1-13

「我每天好像在演一場戲，我真的好累。」面對人生不同階段，擁有不同的身分，丈夫、母親或老闆，扮演一位迎合別人期待的角色，讓你感到心累了嗎？ 「扮演一個角色」是每個人在面對新身分的第一步，但如果只是停留在「演」，我們會發現自己只是在扮演討人喜歡的角色，卻忽略了在這些角色背後的「自己」是否有持續在成長？否則日子一天天過去，我們只會越演越累，並發現裡面也越來越空。 所以讓我們藉由掃羅王的故事當作借鏡，學習找到「下一步」，成為一個真正有深度的人，活出神原先創造我們的樣子！

We celebrated our School of Leadership graduate, and Pastor Peter and Pastor Jessica shared 5 principles to develop people and maximize your impact.

In a world full of performance, image, and inconsistency—how do you live a life of real, lasting impact?

Discover how integrity, consistency, and spiritual formation become fruit that the world can trust.

Preaching text: Luke 10:38-42 | Sermon for July 20, 2025

In a world of “Buy Now” buttons, late-night scrolling, and instant gratification, how do we actually live with self-control? In this message, Pastor Peter unpacks how the Holy Spirit empowers us to overcome impulse culture—not through willpower, but through surrender. Discover how to stop reacting in the flesh and start responding in the Spirit.

This podcast episode with Pastor Peter deeply explores the profound meaning of laying down one's life for fellow believers, emphasizing that this is a direct response to Jesus' sacrificial love. Drawing from 1 John 3:16, Pastor Peter explains that "by this we know love, that Jesus laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for one another", clarifying that this isn't about earning salvation but about living out the "life of Jesus formed in us". The message highlights that this sacrificial living, rooted in the humility and nobility of Jesus, leads to a church growing in purity, maturity, and unity. It contrasts the way of Jesus with the "stain of Cain"—a path of self-preservation that leads to hatred and division—and encourages listeners to remember their "why" for perseverance, which is the transforming love of Christ. Pastor Peter reminds us that "The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet" [Romans 16:20] and that "no greater love than this than someone lays down their life for their friend" [John 15:13], empowering believers to be love in the world and volunteer willingly [Psalms 110:3], reflecting the ethos of the church to freely give as we have freely received.

Pastor Peter spoke of Mary Magdalene today, recounting how she was the first to witness the resurrected Jesus. However, many people doubted her when she shared that her Lord had returned. Pastor Peter shared this woman's story, along with other touching tales, to remind us that witnessing God can occur in unexpected and surprising ways. How can we follow these women's examples and cultivate empathy and compassion in our own lives? How can we nurture the future of faith and live in God's Grace in our daily lives?

Pastor Peter shares Paul's shipwreck story from Acts 27, and pulls out some keys to having tenacious faith when life gets rough.

Ever find yourself holding onto a grudge longer than you should? Maybe it's the coworker who undercuts you, the friend who ghosts you, or that family member who never lets things go. In this week's message, Pastor Peter dives into what it really means to live in step with the Holy Spirit—and how we move from bitterness to freedom. Drawing from Galatians 5, we explore how the Fruit of the Spirit—specifically patience, kindness, and gentleness—can help us release grudges and embrace grace. Because let's be honest: You can't grow a grudge and the Fruit of the Spirit at the same time. From airplane clappers and parenting moments to swaddled babies and viral Chick-fil-A notes, this message is honest, funny, and packed with truth that meets you right where you are. 

Pastor Peter takes us through Acts 25 and the story of Paul speaking before the leaders of his day.

我們常常會問神：「為什麼這些事會發生在我身上？」這不只是逆境時的疑問，有時連在順境中，我們也會這樣問神。但如果神真的一一向我們解釋，痛苦就真的比較容易承受嗎？ 當我們筋疲力盡的時候，眼前的痛苦會讓未來看起來一片空白，甚至讓我們錯看、限縮自己的選擇。所以我們更需要提醒自己，別急著抓住那些「非要不可的東西」，也不要過度放大眼前的問題。 透過這篇主日講道，讓我們在心累的時候，一起學習做出不讓自己後悔、也貼近神心意的選擇。

Sermon for June 29, 2025 | Preaching text: Luke 9:51-62

In this insightful message, Pastor Peter delves into the profound truth of 1 Corinthians 3:16, emphasizing that "you are the temple where God's spirit dwells", clarifying that "you" is plural, meaning "y'all" – the church collectively. He explains that God's Spirit is actively "at work," "powerful," and "very productive on the mission of God," likening His work to a "construction project" building lives, families, and communities into a temple for His presence. While God's Spirit is unseen and prepares us, God's tangible "presence" is when "God appears, when God shows up, when God's power is on display". The church's journey is a progression from being God's "field" to His "building" and finally to His "temple". Paul's letter to Corinth urges the church to stop "tearing each other apart" and instead engage in "edification," a "construction word" meaning "to build up one another," promoting unity, purity, and maturity. Everyone is called to be a "fellow worker" with God, actively participating in this building, with Jesus Christ as the only foundation (1 Corinthians 3:11), knowing their "labor is not in vain in the Lord" (1 Corinthians 15) as they collaborate on an eternal temple.

Pastor Peter shares some wisdom from Acts about how to be sustained through suffering when it comes. 

Sermon for June 15, 2025 | Preaching text: John 16:12-15

是否我們常常在別人的故事中，放大了別人的「罪」，卻在自己的故事中，只把自己的「罪」視為一種掙扎呢？ 「福音」並沒有要改變我們對罪的看法，只是改變我們在故事中所扮演的角色。我們面對「罪」，不是辯護律師。因為「罪」不會透過解釋，就變成不是罪。我們面對「罪」，也不是法官。因為除了神以外，沒有人能坐在審判的位置。 邀請你點開這個主日講道，讓我們一同學習「悔改」是一生的功課，在這條悔改的路上，不需要更多的評論家，而是需要更多陪伴人成長的朋友！讓我們一起看看，「福音」會如何改寫你我的故事結局！

Father's Day at Faith | Pastor Peter Reeves | Wednesday, June 15, 2025

Pastor Peter shared the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000, and asked 2 important questions: what can you do? What can God do?

「福音」不是讓我們能上天堂，而是讓「福音」改變我們生命的每個層面，讓我們能預備自己進到永恆。 這次 Pastor Peter 提醒我們，「慷慨」不是一個機會，而是一種責任。我們不需要等到有「慷慨」的感覺才去付出，而是思考「如果一個慷慨的人會怎麼做？」然後就去做慷慨的事！ 讓我們一起點開主日講道連結，學習成為一個能慷慨給予的人！

我們想賺更多的錢，因為總認為錢不夠用嗎？或許不是錢賺夠不夠多的問題，而是我們有沒有在管理的問題。否則賺再多的錢，都無法彌補一個沒有規劃的人生。 所以透過這次的系列講道，我們有個夢想是：「我想成為一個不為金錢憂慮，並且豐盛有餘，能慷慨給予的人。」這次的主日講道，我們分別在觀念、工作、預算、投資，這幾個層面，按著聖經原則來學習如何管理。 讓我們透過這個主日講道，一起學習在財務上，能成為有智慧的人。

關於「十一」，你可能聽過不少支持或反對的聲音。在這次講道中，Pastor Peter 分享了三個，人們在「十一」裡，常會有的疑惑跟猶豫，但同時也教導我們，「十一」的原因絕對不是因為神需要這筆錢，而是這是我們對神的敬拜！ 我們都是按神的形象所創造，我們是屬神的，所以我們可以全心全意全力愛祂！而學習愛神的旅程，就可以從十一開始。
