Yishun Christian Church (Lutheran)
The Sabbath Rest (Luke 13)
•
At the Divine Service today (21 August 2022), Rev Dr William Chang explained the significance of Sabbath to the congregation. The Sabbath, which is observed by the Jews from the sunset of Friday to the sunset of the following day, has since been replaced by the Lord's Day, which falls on the Sunday, the day where Christ was resurrected. This is the reason why Sundays have been the churchgoing days for most Christians. We should however not take Sundays as an ordinary rest day. On Sundays, we ought to rest in the Lord, through our attendance at the Divine Service. It is through this renewed Sabbath rest that Christians are spiritually regenerated to overcome the challenges in our lives as we partner with God to build His kingdom.

The Spirit or the spirit? (Genesis 11:1–9, Acts 2:1–21)
31:56|This Pentecost, Rev Dr William Chang contrasted life led by human pride with life empowered by the Holy Spirit. At Babel, man pursued unity on their own terms; at Pentecost, God united believers by His Spirit to proclaim the gospel. True peace and purpose come when we choose daily to walk in step with the Spirit.Unity with God and One Another (John 17:20–26)
23:51|This week, Preacher Allan Ng reminded us that Jesus’ prayer calls us into deep unity with God and His people. True community involves humility, reconciliation, and lifting one another up in love. The Spirit guides us—so let us connect authentically, grow in grace, and glorify God together.Christian Outreach: The Spirit’s Empowering, Your Obedience (Acts 16:6–15)
31:11|This week, Rev Dr William Chang reminded us that Christian outreach flows from our connection with Christ and reflects the Father’s heartbeat. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we are called to a life of mission, love, and eternal purpose. God creates opportunities for His love to be known—if we simply avail ourselves in obedience.Love One Another as I Have Loved You (John 13:31–35)
22:08|This week, Br Lim Geok Seng reminded us that Jesus is glorified through His sacrificial love on the Cross and gave a new commandment: to love others as He loves us. Not by our own strength, but by letting Christ love through us. Let us follow Him in active obedience to love others.Raised by Christ, Serving in Christ (Acts 9:36–43)
19:32|This week, Preacher Allan Ng honoured the faith-filled service of mothers, like Tabitha, whose good works reflected Christ’s love. True faith, as Luther said, is always active. When the Word is proclaimed, it bears fruit. Raised by Christ, may we serve with the same sacrificial love—especially in our homes and communities.Becoming Good Financial Steward
01:33:20|On 8 March 2025 at YCCL, Dr. Ho Yew Kee delivered an engaging and convicting message on “Becoming Good Financial Stewards.” He urged believers: recognize that God owns everything—manage money as His steward, not your master. Build a budget. Track your income and expenses. Spend within your means. Prepare for life’s uncertainties with wise insurance and savings. Avoid the trap of debt—don’t be a slave to lenders. Stop hoarding and start investing purposefully. Above all, store up treasures in heaven by giving, serving, and trusting God as your ultimate security and satisfaction.Jesus Comes to Us to Love Him (John 21:1–19)
32:02|This week, Preacher Allan Ng reminded us that failure can be a blessing when Jesus enters the scene. By the charcoal fire, the risen Christ restored Peter in love and calls us likewise. Like Peter, come as you are, receive forgiveness, and be restored. With His love, our lives—like the miraculous catch—become fruitful as we follow Him into resurrection life.Choose Your Fear (John 20:19–20; Acts 5:27–32)
18:13|This week, Rev Dr William Chang shared how the risen Jesus turned fear into faith. Renewed by His peace, His wounds, and the Spirit’s breath, the disciples chose to fear God, not man. As Luther taught, “If we do not fear God, we cannot truly love Him.” Choose your fear—fear God, and live boldly in His Spirit’s power today!Easter Sunday 2025 Sermon
26:43|The Resurrection For Real Life (John 20:1–18)On Easter Sunday, Preacher Allan Ng shared how the risen Jesus called Mary Magdalene by name—and calls each of us too. The bodily resurrection of Christ, witnessed and recorded in history, brings lasting hope to the grieving, guilty, and suffering. Believe, live uprightly, and share His resurrection life with a world in need.
