Fear not I am your God

This bilingual sermon distills the biblical command “Fear not,” tracing fear from Adam’s fall to Christ’s victory on the Cross. Brother Hamburtsam encourages the congregation to exercise their spiritual authority over anxiety, loneliness, and uncertainty, emphasizing that God’s presence and Christ’s eternal life provide total deliverance from fear.

Finding peace in the Lord

This bilingual sermon explores the nature of divine peace as an internal, guaranteed, and transcendent gift. Using the metaphor of a bird singing on a rock amidst a storm, Brother Edward argues that true Christian peace is independent of circumstances and accessible only through repentance, surrender, and casting anxieties on Christ.

For such a time as this

This bilingual sermon (English/Armenian) asserts that current global instability is a divine signal of the end times. Using Esther as a model, Sister Ann argues that believers are intentionally placed by God to provide hope and the message of Christ’s return to a fearful world.

Who we are?

The sermon explores the believer’s identity through the supremacy of Christ. Using the analogy of eagles raised by turkeys, the preacher argues that many Christians live defeated lives because they forget they are “in Christ.” By remaining rooted in Him, believers access God’s fullness, sufficiency, and spiritual freedom.

Having a burden for people

The sermon identifies the “secret” of evangelism as deep, love-driven intercession. Drawing on the examples of Moses and Jesus, Brother Edward argues that true spiritual fruit requires a “burden” from the Holy Spirit. Success in ministry comes not from duty, but from “sowing in tears” to “reap in joy.”
