Building Unshakable Life
📅 Wed, June 10, 2026•👤 Speaker: Caryn Pepito
📝 Sermon Commentary & Spiritual TakeawaysFoundations Matter: Just as buildings require solid foundations to hold their weight, our lives need deep-rooted beliefs and values anchored in Christ. Shallow foundations lead to instability and failure when pressure arises. Sand vs. Rock: Building on "sand" represents relying on fleeting worldly successes, relationships, and material wealth, which are temporary. In contrast, building on the "Rock" signifies a steadfast reliance on Jesus, who offers unshakeable strength and peace. Weathering the Storms: Both the wise and foolish builders experience the same storms, symbolizing life's challenges. The difference is the foundation—those anchored in Christ stand firm, while those who build on unstable ground face collapses under pressure. Real-Life Applications: Success, relationships, and financial security can serve as misleading foundations if not rooted in faith. We must place our ultimate trust in Christ rather than these temporary, shifting sands.
Building an Unshakable Life: Strengthening Your Foundation in Christ
In a world filled with uncertainty and trials, the foundation of our lives becomes more crucial than ever. This powerful sermon reminded us that just as an incredible 9-story building tragically collapsed due to an insufficient foundation, our lives, too, can crumble when built on unstable ground. The metaphor of building on sand versus rock challenges us to anchor ourselves firmly in Jesus Christ—the Rock—ensuring that our lives withstand any storm.
Overview
The central message of this sermon emphasizes the importance of establishing a strong foundation for life through faith in Jesus Christ. Drawing from the engineering verdict on the collapse of a 9-story building, it highlights how a shallow foundation can lead to disastrous consequences. We are encouraged to build on the solid Rock of Christ—a foundation that remains steadfast, even amidst life's fiercest storms.

Guard Your Mouth: Let Faith Tame the Tongue; Words That Edify.
📅 Sun, June 7, 2026•👤 Speaker: Ptr. William Del Carmen
📝 Sermon Commentary & Spiritual TakeawaysAssume Personal Responsibility: We are all teachers by our actions and words. It's crucial to model integrity and speak truthfully, practicing what we preach without hypocrisy. Recognize the Power of the Tongue: Just as a small bit directs a horse or a rudder steers a ship, our words can shape lives. Both destructive and uplifting words stem from the same source, so choose wisely. Understand the Source is the Heart: Our speech is an overflow of our innermost thoughts and feelings. To genuinely guard our tongues, we must allow our hearts to be transformed by Christ, leading to speech that reflects His grace. Practical Speaking Filters: Before we speak, let us ask ourselves: Is it unwholesome? Does it build others up? Is it timely? Does it give grace? These filters can guide us to speak words that edify rather than hurt.
