Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 29, 2026

After fifteen years of waiting, the moment finally arrives—but it doesn't look like a Hollywood coronation. David is crowned in Hebron, a partial fulfillment that tests his stewardship of the small before he receives the great.

The Day the Waiting Ends You know what's remarkable about the moment David finally becomes king? After everything. After the anointing in his father's house. After the years in the cave. After sparing Saul's life twice. After leading broken people in obscurity. After fighting ...read more

"eat My Flesh” Literal Or Symbolic? John 6

Contributed by Barnabas Park on Mar 6, 2026

By using the imagery of a meal, eating his flesh and drinking his blood, and connecting it to the Passover, Jesus establishes a new memorial that points to his saving work. In this way, the act of remembering becomes an active expression of faith in Christ’s sacrifice.

Jesus said, “Unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood, you have no life in you.” At first hearing, the words sound shocking and ...read more
