    When life turns sour, tell yourself the truth, complain to God, and He will deliver. Message focuses on Dylan Thomas’ poem, "Do not go gentle into that good night; rage, rage against the dying of the light."

    This first chapter of Ruth will help us see that there are great possibilities ahead that we are not aware of. God has been working all along in the background even if all around us is full of darkness and despair.

    We are going to start a new series today in the Book of Ruth. What do we know about that Book of Ruth? For one thing, this short Book consisting of only four chapters and 100 verses is a link between the time of the judges and the kings of Israel. Remember that during the time of the Judges, ...read more

    How To Know That You Are In The Light

    Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Jun 14, 2025
     | 220 views

    You know you are in the light if you do not harbor hatred against anyone. 1 John 2:9 says, “He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.” Hatred is a poisonous heart condition that makes us treat others as enemies.

    Song: I have the light of God in me /2x I have the spirit of the Son of God I have the light of God in me. This is one of the choruses we sing as Christians. Let us think through this song and measure ourselves against the scale of the word of God. Let us read 1 John 2:7-11, which ...read more

     | 3,704 views

    Whenever Christians are full of envy and strife, it obscures the evidence of heaven. The clouds of hatred darken the evidence of Heaven’s love for us.

    Let a man do whatever religious thing he wishes, it means nothing without love. Love is the greatest of God’s gifts. Love is deeper than emotions. Love is the God-given proof that you are Christ’s disciples (John 13:35). This is a message about the future but it is also a map for the present. Since ...read more

    Wisdom is a gift from God. It is something that we can ask for and only useful if the wisdom we share has a heavenly source.

    Got Wisdom? James 3:13-18 I hope you recall that James is speaking to Jews living in a foreign land. Jews that believe that the messiah has come and are persecuted for their belief. The book of James teaches us a bout a faith that works, a faith that is made visible by actions. Today we are ...read more
