    Forgiveness Is Not A Choice

    Forgiveness has eternal consequences. Perhaps that is why Jesus included it in his model prayer saying we are forgiven only when we forgive. Satan does not have to get us with every sin in the bible. All he needs is to get us with one.

    I want to start with something funny, so listen to this. One Sunday a Preacher’s message was about forgiveness. Hoping to have made an impact, towards the end of the sermon, he asked his congregation, “How many of you have been able to forgive those who offended ...read more

    The Power Of Prayer.

    The name Jabez means, ‘he causes pain’. But Jabez defied the testimony of his name and believed in the power of God because Jabez identity was found in God.

    The Power Of Prayer. 1 Chronicles 4:10AMP The power of prayer is all about humility. Prayer isn’t about length, it’s the sincerity behind prayer. God doesn’t look at the length of our pleas and requests, or how perfectly prayers were created. He doesn’t look at a person’s status in society, but ...read more

    How faith keeps us grounded when technology blurs the truth.

    Introduction I want to start with something simple. Life today feels like one giant dating app. Swipe left. Swipe right. Reject this. Keep that. But it’s not just dating apps. For many of us, life feels like an endless Zoom meeting — faces in little boxes, muted microphones, “connection” that ...read more

    Making Connections Series

    For some, Paul’s greetings at the end of Romans might seem boring and not relevant. To the contrary, Paul’s connections with other believers offers us a rich tapestry of life and service in the 1st century church.

    Paul’s letter to the Romans was not merely a theological treatise on God’s plan to rescue mankind from evil. He wrote it to people he had (mostly) never met, in a city where he had never been. The purpose of his letter was that of introduction. “Hi, I’m Paul, and this is what I believe.” In ...read more
