    This is the 14th of 31 Devotions on the book of Jonah, where I make a comparison between the story of Jonah and The Church-at-large, in the light of the present global pandemic.

    # 14 – The Decisive Question Jonah 1:11: “Then they said to him, “What shall we do to you that the sea may be calm for us?”—for the sea was growing more tempestuous.” “What shall we do to you…” In our last devotion, we looked at the first question the sailors asked Jonah – “What have you done?” ...read more

    For the Festival of Christ the King; We rely on false comparisons or we use half-truths to justify ourselves. Far better to find justification in committing ourselves to what God is about in the world.

Some say it was Mark Twain, others British Prime Minister Disraeli, but someone remarked that there are three kinds of lies: plain lies, flat-out lies, and statistics. Plain lies, flat-out lies, and ...read more

    I received the outline for this message from a local Nazarene colleague. It draws a comparison between the grace Christ extended to the lady caught in adultery and the grace shown by the elements of the communion table.

    THIS THING CALLED GRACE John 8:2-11 When I was in Grade 1, I was almost caught throwing rocks. It was during the lunchtime recess when my cousin and I decided the most productive thing to do was to throw rocks. We were not throwing rocks at the school.
