    Who are we in Christ? We have been looking at this pretty much since Easter. We considered that “in Christ” we are a new creation. All the old has passed away and before God, all has become new! Being in Christ, we represent Him to the world, we have become His ambassadors. We have the ...read more

    Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Feb 9, 2020

    The choices that we make are very important. It determines our victory and our future. One wrong choice can ruin your life. And a right choice can bless you abundantly. What’s the first choice mentioned in the Bible? [allow audience to guess] Eve choosing to eat the forbidden fruit! No. CHOICE ...read more

     | 1,507 views

    Looking at coronavirus - is there a bigger picture? We need to look, but we also need to be cautious in interpreting what we 'see'.

    There are many ways to ‘see’ things, not with our physical eyes, but with the eyes of understanding. In the previous 'Reflection' I reflected on Jesus’ sensitivity to different people he met: a leper, someone who was deaf, someone who was blind. Jesus ‘saw’ each person as an individual ...read more
