On Sunday evening, 2 August 2026, Ps Simon Chilongoshi challenged us on what servanthood for the Christian looks like. He preached from Matthew 20:20-28 that true greatness in Christ’s kingdom comes not through seeking status or position, as the mother of Zebedee’s sons attempted, but through humble servanthood — following Jesus’s own example of coming “not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

On Sunday evening, 26 July 2026, pastoral intern, Jolan Koekemoer, preached from 1 John 4:1-8. In this sermon, Jolan uses a story about buying two different cars — one thoroughly tested, one not — to illustrate that believers don’t need special training to discern true teaching from false; the Spirit who lives in them is sufficient to test it.

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?

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.

On Sunday evening, 7 June 2026, brother Ben Bokwa shared with us an encouraging and challenging sermon from 1 John 3:16-18. He explained that there is no middle ground; we are either children of God or we follow the prince of evil. As Christians we are called to love like Christ, yet it is an impossible task without Christ. He also gave some examples of how we can truly, with the help of God, love one another sacrificially.
