    First Samuel 29:1-11 shows us that the Lord always preserves his own people, even when they act foolishly.

    Scripture In our study of the life of David, we have noted that the final few chapters of First Samuel are not in chronological order. They are arranged thematically. Chapter 27 shows us David’s dilemma, caused by his temporary faithlessness. Chapter 28 shows us Saul’s dilemma, caused by his ...read more

    We may think that expressing gratitude is easy. But think again. It might turn out to be a difficult task. And there is a reason for that. And there is a solution for that. Let us look at the solution.

    Gratitude in Action: Catching People do the Right Things!! One of our (Leslie and I) constant prayers is to enable us to bring up Arvi and Aarav (our grand children) in the fear and knowledge of God. Towards this, we recently tried asking them to list of a few things they want to thank God for ...read more

    The New Passover Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 15, 2025
     | 1,221 views

    The Twelve along with Jesus joined them in an upper room to celebrate the final Passover and inaugurate the first Communion. Depicted in Mark 14:17-26, in two ways we see that the New Passover began with 1) The Final Passover (Mark 14:17–21) and concludes with 2) The First Communion (Mark 14:22–26)

    Mark 14:17–26. 17And when it was evening, he came with the twelve. 18And as they were reclining at table and eating, Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.” 19They began to be sorrowful and to say to him one after another, “Is it I?” 20He said to ...read more
