    Humility Of Christ

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 24, 2024

    In our text we see the Lord Jesus loving men who did not deserve it. Luke (22:24) tells us that at the Lord’s Supper, just after Jesus announced that one of them would betray Him, the disciples got into a dispute about which of them was the greatest.

    Opening illustration: We all can relate to Linus in the “Peanuts” cartoon strip when he shouts in frustration, “I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand!” It’s easy to love the human race in the abstract, but when it comes to loving specific irritating people that I can’t avoid, the process ...read more

    From Eden’s first lamb to Calvary’s cross, the Shepherd who died now leads His flock home—our unshakable hope and everlasting Rock

    The Garden After the Fall The garden must have been silent that evening—so silent that Adam could hear his own heartbeat. Moments before, he and Eve had walked with God in the cool of the day.

    True obedience flows from joyful faith; serving God with gladness transforms ordinary tasks into sacred acts and reveals His love to the world.

    Some mornings arrive like a hymn. Sunlight spills across the kitchen table, a mug warms your hands, and hope hums beneath the chores and headlines. Other mornings weigh heavy. The to-do list looms, the inbox aches, and the heart feels thin as paper. In both kinds of mornings, God extends the same ...read more

    Part 2: The Refiner's Fire (Divine Refinement And Trust) Series

    Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 20, 2026

    In the last sermon, we explored the mystery of God's hiddenness. We acknowledged that God is often silent and our hearts cry out for Him to speak. But silence, we learned, does not mean absence. God is hidden from our perception, but not withdrawn from His work.

    Today, we turn to perhaps the most difficult question of all. If God is silent and yet still working, what exactly is He doing? What is the purpose of the silence? Why does God allow us to walk through seasons where prayer seems unanswered, where Scripture feels distant, where we cannot sense His ...read more

    These are reflections of being a new father and how they relate to our relationship with our Heavenly Father.

    TEXT: Isaiah 64:1-8 “Reflections of a Father” – Part 1 When Jesus began His preaching ministry, he ruffled many feathers by constantly referring to God as “Father” or Av in the Hebrew. Even though God treated us like His children, it wasn’t something that the Pharisees were willing to grasp. ...read more
