Trust Worthy

Trust Worthy

Many times, our failures and faults make us feel unworthy to draw near to God. But here’s the truth: We have a God who never gives up on us. He pursues us despite all our shortcomings. He is faithful even when we are not. In fact, He wants us to come to Him with all of our brokenness and failures, so He can redeem and renew us. And He invites us to know Him more and live differently.

The world may be filled with uncertainty and human systems may fail, but we can trust God because He is unchanging and steadfast, holy and just, loving and all-powerful. He fulfills His promises no matter what. When all else fails, our God is trustworthy.

For the next six weeks, we’ll discover more about God and our relationship with Him in our worship services this week. Join us as we learn more about these topics for our upcoming series:

  • Week 1: God’s Faithfulness (April 25)
  • Week 2: God’s Salvation (May 2)
  • Week 3: God’s Passion (May 9)
  • Week 4: God’s Holiness (May 16) 
  • Week 5: God’s Spirit (May 23)
  • Week 6: God’s Remnant (May 30)

We hope that this series will help us know God more and trust in Him and His word, so we can live with confidence in His promises and live in obedience to Him.

Salt & Light

Salt & Light

Pain, troubles, and suffering are part of life. And often, we can be consumed by these difficulties we face. However, God’s word shows us a different way: Jesus heals us, restores us, and gives us the power to overcome our difficulties. But it doesn’t stop with us. We can help others do the same. We are the salt and light that can reach out to others and extend the love and power God has given to us (Matthew 5:13–16).

Now that we are God’s people, our understanding of our realities stems from the truth of His word and a desire to advance His kingdom. His word allows us to apply His truths, helps us respond in faith, and causes us to actively take part in discipling a nation.

For the next six weeks, we will talk about God’s restoration plan for the world through the book of Isaiah. Join us as we learn more about these topics for our upcoming series:

  • Week 1: God versus False Religion (March 14)
  • Week 2: God versus Oppressors (March 21)
  • Week 3: Jesus, The Righteous King (March 28)
  • Week 4: Jesus, The Suffering Servant (April 4) 
  • Week 5: God’s Righteous People (April 11)
  • Week 6: God’s Plan of Renewal (April 18)

We hope that this series will help us continue to be the salt and light, actively reaching people and taking part in what God is doing to restore the world to Himself.

Following health and safety protocols, we have resumed some worship services onsite while continuing to meet online. You may join us by checking the schedules here or your Victory location’s Facebook page.

Joy Full

Joy Full

We tend to hinge our emotions on our present realities and circumstances. The reality is there will always be trouble and hardships that will shake us every now and then. But we don’t have to worry or fret; we can rejoice because we have joy that does not depend on our present reality and we have all we need and more in Christ! 

In the next four weeks, we will be studying Paul’s letter to the Philippians, which he wrote while he was in prison! Despite the trials and difficulties he faced, he was able to endure and come to this conclusion: No amount of difficulty can ever steal the fullness of joy we have in Christ.

Join us as we learn more about these topics for our upcoming series:

  • Week 1: Joy in Suffering (February 7)
  • Week 2: Joy in Relationships (February 14)
  • Week 3: Joy in Pursuing Christ (February 21)
  • Week 4: Joy in All Circumstances (February 28)

We hope that this series will help us learn to find contentment, hope, and joy in Christ in spite of our circumstances and share this fullness of joy to those around us!

Awesome God

Awesome God

The year 2020 was far from ordinary. We began the year by focusing and reflecting on the amazing grace of God, and we had no idea how much we would need it! God’s grace has brought us through some of the toughest challenges of life as a church and as individuals. Because of this, we can welcome each day and this new year with gratitude for everything God has done for, in, and through us. 

This year, we will grow in our understanding of God’s goodness and greatness. We want to talk about our Awesome God because God is awesome! Our fitting response to the awesomeness of God is two-fold: we will fear God and we will grow in our love for Him. 

Here are the topics for our sermon series:

  • Week 1: God’s Self-Existence (January 3)
  • Week 2: God’s Peace (January 10)
  • Week 3: God’s Compassion (January 17)
  • Week 4: God’s Redemption (January 24)
  • Week 5: God’s Mission (January 31)

We hope you can join us in our time of prayer, fasting, and consecration from January 11 to 15. Visit https://victory.org.ph/fasting2021/ to download our devotionals, join our prayer meetings, and share your story about our Awesome God.

Our hope is that this series and consecration week will help us see not only the greatness of God but also His goodness, and that we will be able to hold on to these in a new way. 

Following health and safety protocols, we have resumed some worship services onsite while continuing to meet online. You may join us by checking schedules here.

In Time

In Time

In spite of everything we have been through in 2020, we are looking forward to celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ again. Our Christmas celebrations in our homes and churches are different and many of us are longing for better days in time. But in all this we have hope, because the Savior of the world came in time for us, bringing light and life to His people.

Join us in the next three weeks as we look at the coming of Jesus through the gospel of John. More than a baby in a manger, Jesus is Lord—Creator and pre-eminent—and the source of all life and light for us in these troubled times. Here is the schedule of our Christmas series:

  • Week 1: Jesus, the Logos (December 6)
  • Week 2: Jesus, the Life (December 13)
  • Week 3: Jesus, the Light (December 20)

Following health and safety protocols, we have resumed some worship services onsite while continuing to meet online. You may join us by checking schedules here.

May we be a witness of Christ’s light and love to our families and communities this Christmas, in order that all may believe. See you at any of our services!

Add to Heart

Add to Heart

Even in the midst of a pandemic, we can trust God for provision and, in turn, give to honor Him. Giving is a matter of the heart. We give not because we have to, but because of God’s graciousness and faithfulness to us. This is our worship unto God. Like adding things to our cart, we have a choice about what we add to our hearts.

Join us in the next three weeks as we look at biblical attitudes when it comes to giving our tithes unto the Lord through different passages and stories in the Bible. Here is the schedule of our new series:

  • Week 1: The Only Person of Our Worship (November 15)
  • Week 2: The Main Purpose of Our Wealth (November 22)
  • Week 3: The True Proof of Our Offering (November 29)

We pray that this series will encourage you to continue to trust God and honor Him through your giving.

The Gospel Expressed

The Gospel Expressed

Since earlier this year, we have wanted to grow in our understanding of the gospel and develop a greater love for God’s word. That’s why we embarked on a twenty-two-week series on the book of Romans. In the first part of the series, we focused on The Gospel Explained, highlighting the power of the gospel and the greatness of the mercy of God toward His people. We also talked about The Mission Continues, focusing on the power and fulfillment of the gospel in the lives of individuals and nations.

For the next five weeks, we will be looking at how we can respond in view of God’s mercy. In the last five chapters of his letter to the Romans, Paul outlined how we can live out the gospel by serving and loving others, submitting to authority, and being united as a Church.

Here is the schedule of our series:

  • Week 18: Gifts of Grace (October 10)
  • Week 19: Love in Action (October 17)
  • Week 20: Christian Duties (October 24)
  • Week 21: Welcome Others (October 31)
  • Week 22: Unity of the Gospel (November 7)

Due to the restrictions on gatherings, our worship services are temporarily online. You can join one of our online services on this list.

We pray that this series will encourage you to seek God and grow in Christlikeness. Let us continue to honor God and make disciples wherever we may be!

The Mission Continues

The Mission Continues

Our calling and mission as a church has always been to honor God and make disciples in every campus and every nation. Even with the recent pandemic and restrictions on movement worldwide, we make God’s mission for us a priority. While the world may have seemingly stopped, the mission continues.

Join us in the next two weeks as we discover the power of the gospel to transform not just individuals but also nations. As we study the book of Romans, our prayer is that like Paul, we will seek to preach the gospel where Christ is not yet known.

Here is the schedule of our new series:

  • Week 1: The Gospel’s Power (September 27)
  • Week 2: The Gospel’s Fulfillment (October 4)

We pray that this series will encourage you to participate in what God is doing in the nations by praying, giving, and going. Together, let us bring the gospel to every nation!

Generationship

Generationship

As a church, we are called to reach the next generation—aka the future leaders of our society. This is why we value building relationships with them and setting them up for success. For the next two weeks, we will be looking at the lives of Saul and David, and how they viewed the next generation. While Saul disobeyed God, did not submit to His plans, and pursued his own interests, David served God’s purposes in his own generation (Acts 13:36) and paved the way for the next generations to succeed.

In studying their lives, we hope that we will intentionally set up the next generation to succeed in God’s purpose for their lives.

Here is the schedule of our new series:

  • Week 1: Saul and Jonathan (August 30)
  • Week 2: David and Solomon (September 6)

We pray that this series will encourage you to see our future with hope as we continue to make disciples and equip the next generation for God’s purposes in their lives!

A Father’s Heart

A Father’s Heart

This weekend, we will honor the role of fathers and recognize their influence in our homes and society.

A Father’s Heart is a preaching message for Father’s Day based on Psalm 128. As we study this psalm, we hope that we will have a deeper understanding of God as our Father and be encouraged to walk in obedience to Him.

As we celebrate this Sunday, let us worship God, our Heavenly Father, and ask Him to show us how we can honor the fathers in our lives today.

See you at our online worship services this weekend!

Beauty in Strength

Beauty in Strength

As we celebrate Mother’s Day this weekend, we want to commemorate and honor the role of mothers and recognize their godly influence in our homes and society.

In the Bible, a mother named Jochebed displayed courage, strength, and immense trust in God in the midst of a challenging time in history. She did not let fear overcome her faith. We will look more into her story this weekend to understand the beauty that God brings through mothers.

May Jochebed and the rest of the mothers inspire us to display beauty in strength as we overcome fear and respond in faith. See you at our online worship services this weekend!

Perspective Series

Perspective Series

As the COVID-19 pandemic sweeps across the world, how do we respond as Christians? From what perspective do we choose to view the things happening around us? Do our hearts mirror the unrest unfolding each day, or do we shift our perspective and look to God amid the crisis?

For three weeks, we will look at Psalm 23 and learn more about God’s promises of provision, protection, and peace. In spite of what’s happening, we can find comfort in God—our Shepherd—who guides us, restores us, and meets all our needs.

Here are the topics for each week:

  • Week 1: Provision
  • Week 2: Peace
  • Week 3: Protection
  • Week 4: Presence

As we walk through dark valleys and battle each day in this pandemic, we have a Shepherd who leads us and quiets our hearts. Let us shift our perspective and focus our eyes on God alone. There are green pastures and still waters ahead of us. Knowing that He is our Shepherd not just secures us, but empowers us to declare who He is so that others can seek Him, too.

Let us look to God and encourage others to find comfort in His promises of provision, protection, and peace. See you at our online worship services!

In a time of fear, uncertainty, and grief, we can find new hope in Jesus Christ. He is the hope of our salvation and our hope in every situation.

For the first two Sundays, we are looking at the life of Jesus from the Gospel of Luke. Then, on May 31, June 7, and June 14, we are going to learn about the Holy Spirit and how we are empowered to minister.

The Gospel Explained Series

The Gospel Explained Series

Understanding the gospel and how it affects our lives will allow us to have a deeper appreciation of God’s love.

From March 8 to October 18, we will have a series spread over the year about the gospel, as explained in the book of Romans.

The book of Romans was written by the apostle Paul. He wrote it at a time when there was great persecution and conflict between Christians of Jewish origin and Christians who were Gentiles. Through the message of the gospel, Paul hoped to see the two walking in unity with each other.

As we dig deep into God’s word in the next 23 weeks, may we have a clearer understanding and appreciation of God’s love for us. May it also inspire us to walk in unity as we live lives pleasing to God.

Know more about the gospel in our new series! See you at our worship services across the Philippines!

On a Journey Series

On a Journey Series

Discipleship is about following Jesus and going on a journey with Him and other people. It’s about relationships.

In this series, we will look at the life of Jesus, who—throughout His lifetime—exhibited a posture of following God, fishing for people, and walking with others. He is the perfect example of discipleship.

Here are the topics for each week:

  • Week 1: Be One
  • Week 2: Make One
  • Week 3: Walk with One

May this series help us understand discipleship and encourage us to have a growth-filled journey with God and the people around us.

Hope Has Come Series

Hope Has Come Series

People celebrate Christmas for many reasons. But the reason we can and should celebrate Christmas is the good news that Jesus came. Because He came, we have been redeemed, we were adopted as sons and daughters of God, and we have a sure inheritance.

Imago Dei Series

Imago Dei Series

We are all made in a very unique way—Imago Dei meaning “in the very image and likeness of God.” In this series, we will look at how we were created by God.

Here are the topics for each week:

  • Week 1: Imago Dei
  • Week 2: Manhood
  • Week 3: Womanhood

Together, let us understand God’s design and purpose for each one of us. See you at our worship services across the Philippines!

Want More? Series

Want More? Series

The world tells us today to pursue money and to set our hopes in it to be satisfied in life. This is the reason why many people end up wanting more than what they have. In this series, we will look at the Apostle Paul’s teachings about money and see that God is more than enough—He is the true source of contentment, security, and generosity.

Here are the topics for each week:

  • Week 1: How will I know if I love money more than God?
  • Week 2: How will I know if money is the source of my confidence?

Together, let us discover the answers to these questions. See you at our worship services across the Philippines!

 

Metro Series

Metro Series

Cities are part of God’s plan to save and redeem man. In just a span of a century, we’ve seen a vast number of people flock and relocate to cities, or metros, which have turned into centers of activity all around the world. While this move may be a means for people to meet their physical needs, God, as revealed in Scripture, has planned this beforehand to carry out His plan of redemption for all mankind. In this series, we will look at God’s purpose for our cities and the role that we play in it.

Here are the topics for each week:

  • Week 1: Why the City?
  • Week 2: Our Eternal City

Together, let us make disciples in every nation by reaching more cities for Christ!

No Filter Series

No Filter Series

In a world where we can put up many filters and hide behind what looks good, we can be real and live the way God has called us to live. We don’t need to seek validation, identity, or purpose elsewhere or even within ourselves. We can look to God who sees us through His lens and confidently live out His purpose.

Here are the topics for our two-week campus series this year:

  • Week 1: Identity
  • Week 2: Purpose

As we study Jeremiah’s life in this series, we hope that we will understand more about our purpose and identity in God.
