As the world trembles from the reverberations caused by the war in Iran, we are left wondering ‘when will these wars end’, ‘where can peace be found’, and perhaps even ‘whether God is still in sovereign control’.   Such questions are needed and natural in times like these. And this article 1  helpfully reminds us that even as missiles fly, there is hopeful clarity offered to us in the Word. May it encourage our hearts as we yearn and pray for the blessed reign of Christ. Ps L

Hosea 4 does not begin with comfort. He begins with a case. “Hear the word of the Lord,” he says, because the Lord has a “controversy” with the people in the land. This brings to mind the picture of a courtroom, where a lawsuit is being heard. This is the lawsuit of convenant infidelity between God and his people. The opening statement given by the “plaintiff” in this case the Lord himself: “There is no faithfulness or steadfast love, and no knowledge of God in the land.”   A

In a few days (on 2 March 2026), Swee Sin and I will be celebrating our 58 th wedding anniversary. 58 years sounds like a very long time for a marriage to last; perhaps we hold the record at Hermon. A long marriage provides many lessons – opportunities to make mistakes, to heal and succeed, and to improve ourselves. However, no matter the length of the marriage, all end one way or another. Even Christian marriages end. “‘Till death do us part” is no respecter of creed, colou

Anant read from Hosea 2:2-13. He read the accusation of God upon unfaithful Israel and the punishment God had intended for them. Rev Peter Warren then read for us v14-23 and we see a 180 degree change in the direction.

We’re into the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and even though it’s a public holiday, for most families, the numerous gatherings and visitations may make one feel like a personal holiday is needed after the flurry of activities in the past week.   Rest is hard to find in this world, but God knows we need it. Given the pace of Singapore, it is perhaps more important for us here, than most others, to recover the Sabbath rest. May this article help us to re-orient ourselves tow

As we journey through the book of Hosea, we see Israel chasing after Baal and other idols, believing these false gods could secure their prosperity, fertility, and national survival. Their spiritual adultery was not merely ritualistic; it was a deep misplacement of trust and affection. Because of this idolatrous worship, God allowed the northern kingdom to fall to Assyria — a sobering reminder that spiritual unfaithfulness carries serious consequences.   Today, we are living

We mentioned last week that Hosea is just one book in an compendium of Minor Prophets known as “The Twelve”, and in addition to reading Hosea, it will benefit us to know about “The Twelve” as a whole. Last week’s editorial gave us the “Historical Context”, the “Arrangement” and the “Theological Unity” of the Minor Prophets. This week, we’ll look at some “Key Theological Concepts” and the “Contemporary Relevance” of the Minor Prophets. 1   May it serve to better aid us in our

Thank you for endeavouring to journey with us even when you are unable to be present. As a church, we will be going through 2 Old Testame

This month we embark on our journey through the book of Hosea. Minor prophets are brief, but their words are highly contextualised, for they speak in a tumultuous and disorienting period in Israel’s history.   To equip us to read Hosea with confidence and understanding, we’ll be going through an overview of the book today. But Hosea cannot be fully understood on its own, for it’s part of a larger anthology, known as “The Twelve.”   So, our next two editorials 1 will serve to

There is a quiet kind of faithfulness that the world often overlooks. It isn’t loud. It isn’t trendy. It rarely earns a public “well done.” It is simply the steady decision to do what is right before God because He is worthy—even when doing the right thing is costly, inconvenient, misunderstood, or unpopular.   Many of us don’t struggle to obey when obedience comes with affirmation. The real test of obedience is when it comes with silence, pushback or misinterpretation—when t

2025’s Verse of the Year, Isaiah 41:10 is a familiar one, and understandably so. But it reveals the cry of our hearts for strength and encouragement amid the messiness of life in this fallen world.   Yet the cry of God’s heart is indubitably love . May this article 1  spur our hearts to embrace a different verse, and in so doing, follow in our Lord’s footsteps and truly realise the strength and encouragement we have been seeking in life.
