Find Your Race And Run It

Contributed by Bright Adeyeye on Nov 20, 2019

Every believer is in a race. We may not be aware of it yet, or perhaps the race hasn’t been revealed by God. It is our personal responsibility to discover, discern, and develop it.

Benefits Of Meditation

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jun 17, 2018

There is a link between mediation and attentional functions and cognitive flexibility instead of giving an automatic response. Often we best represent the presence of Christ not just in moments of scheduled ministry.

16B In the Catholic Church, an officiating priest or deacon says, "The Lord be with you" and the congregation responds by saying, "And with thy spirit." However, an older, recently outdated, response from the congregation used to be, “And also with you". So there was a Catholic priest who always ...read more

The Farewell Speech Series

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Jan 27, 2023

In Acts 20, the Apostle Paul gives a farewell speech to the Ephesian elders. What can we learn from this speech?

During his third missionary journey, Paul wanted to meet with Ephesian elders and give a charge to them.
