Sunday Morning Sermon
To the Ends of the Earth
On Sunday morning, 30 August 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached from Romans 15:22-33. “To the Ends of the Earth,” calls the church at Kitwe to see gospel mission as the natural outflow of being justified by faith, using Paul’s example in Romans 15 to show that fulfilling God’s mission requires clear planning, genuine partnership, and persistent prayer.
Read MoreA Liberty Greater Than Your Rights
On Sunday morning, 2 August 2026, Pastor Phil Hunt preached from Romans 14:13-24 on the issue of Christian liberty. Ps Phil showed that this passage argues that Christian liberty, though theologically grounded (all foods, all days are “clean”), must be voluntarily limited by love whenever exercising it could cause a weaker brother to stumble back into sin or grieve his conscience, since the kingdom of God is found not in eating and drinking but in righteousness, peace, and joy in the Spirit.
Read MoreWelcome the Weak
On Sunday morning, 26 July 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached from Romans 14:1-3. He calls us to welcome and accept fellow believers who are “weak in faith,” meaning immature or undiscipled Christians whose consciences lead them to different applications of Scripture on disputable matters, rather than judging them by one’s own cultural convictions or opinions.
Read MoreThe Debt You Must Pay
On Sunday morning, 19 July 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached on Romans 13:8-14. He explained that Christians often mistakenly treat love as something that can be “settled” through a single act of kindness, when in fact Scripture calls for perpetual, self-sacrificing agape love toward believers, unbelievers, and even enemies. Because Christ’s return is near, believers must “wake up” from spiritual complacency and cast off sin rather than delaying obedience.
Read MoreThe Christian and Civil Government
On Sunday morning, 12 July 2026, Ps Phil preached from Romans 13:1-7. He argues that all civil authority—however corrupt or inefficient it may seem —is ultimately established and governed by God Himself, who raises up and removes rulers according to His sovereign purposes. Ps Phil urges believers to pay taxes and show respect without resentment, to pray for their leaders by name, and to trust that God sees every injustice and will hold every authority accountable in the end.
Read MoreNo Spare Parts
On Sunday morning, 28 June 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached from Romans 12:3–8. He challenged Kitwe Church to examine whether they are merely attending or actually functioning as members of Christ’s body. The main question is: If you quietly stopped attending, would your absence actually be felt — and are you using the gift God has given you, or just showing up?
Read MoreGod’s Call to Spiritual Fatherhood
On Sunday morning, 21 June 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached from 1 Thessalonians 2:7-12 to commemorate Father’s Day. He exhorted all men in church to be spiritual fathers to the fatherless and how to be biblical, God-oriented leading fathers so that children will enjoy God forever.
Read MoreGod’s Will: A Transformed Life
On Sunday morning, 14 June 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached a sermon on Romans 12:1–2, where he calls Christians to respond to God’s abundant mercy by presenting their entire selves to God as a living sacrifice — not as a command, but as the only reasonable act of worship for those who have truly grasped what God has done for them in Christ. He then warns against being “conformed” to the values and thinking of the world, and instead urges believers to undergo a deep internal transformation through the daily renewing of their minds by God’s Word and Spirit. The fruit of this consecrated, transformed life, he concludes, is a discerning mind capable of recognizing and embracing God’s will — which is always good, acceptable, and perfect.
Read MoreGrafted In by Grace
On Sunday morning, 31 May 2026, Pastor Phil Hunt preached from Romans 11:11-24. He explained that God’s plan was never derailed by Israel’s rejection of Christ; that Gentile inclusion was always God’s universal purpose from the very beginning, not a Plan B; and that there is still a future hope for Israel, whose broken branches God has the power to graft back in through faith.
Read MoreThe Groaning That God Hears
On March 8, 2026, Ps Phil Hunt preached a sermon on Romans 8:26-27. He shared that there are moments in our life that feel so helpless that we do not even know how to pray, yet the Holy Spirit of God intercedes to the Father on our behalf. As children of God, we have access to God to pray at any time, in any situation, even in states of helplessness.
