    With all that is happening in our personal lives, families, churches, nation and the world at large, everyone needs God as a Shade of Protection to survive these risky, challenging and life-threatening times.

    A 15-minute Exegesis on Luke 24:13-35

    I love reading books. One of my favorite books is the dictionary! I remember a story of a young man who told a girl that he has been courting, “You're like a dictionary? I find meaning whenever I’m with you.” In Luke 24 beginning verse 13, we can find a story of two Christians ...read more

    What is grace? Grace is an unmerited favour; it is kindness from God that we do not deserve. We enjoy God’s grace because He is a merciful God.
