Sermons on Identity:

When God Calls

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 27, 2014

Moses came up with four reasons why he was not the man for the job God has for him. They are questions of identity, credibility, faith and ability. God took extra length to convince him. God does not call the qualified. He qualifies the called.

Constant Battle But, Everlasting Victory!

Are You Foolish?

Contributed by Kayode Omotoso on Jan 6, 2015

In the part of the world where I came from, it is insulting to direct such a question at an individual. The truth is that our response to any statement goes beyond the surface meaning. And in this case, we believe that before you could direct such a question at an individual, you have ...read more
