    I love the fact that Jesus was asleep during the storm on the Galilee. First, Jesus was a man who experienced fatigue just like us. Second, He possessed such a strong sense of tranquility that He could sleep through the storm.

    INTRODUCTION That’s not a typo. We all face storms, but do you have the ability to faith the storms of life? Faith is more than a noun; it’s also a verb. I think one of the hardest jobs would be a weather forecaster. There was a Native American chief on a remote reservation in South Dakota whose ...read more

     | 17,758 views

    If we want to live a life that matters, we must sacrifice, suffer, submit and serve. We don’t like those words, because they seem to be steps down to obscurity, but in Christ’s Kingdom they are steps to true greatness.

    The movie, Pearl Harbor, tells the story of two friends, Rafe and Danny, who survive the attack on Pearl Harbor and enter World War II as fighter pilots. In training before the war, Rafe McCawley is one of America’s top fighter pilots. When America initially holds back from entering the war, ...read more

    We are called to follow Jesus, not seek a position. The 3 principles of ’followership’ is (1) hear His call, (2) lay down your own agenda, and (3) fix your eyes on Jesus.

    Someone once asked a woman what she did for a living, and she said, "I’m a follower of Jesus Christ; disguised as a waitress!" WE ARE CALLED TO FOLLOW JESUS, NOT SEEK A POSITION. When Jesus first called the disciples, they were not called to be leaders. „« He did not call them into leadership ¡V ...read more

    You don’t have to allow the dramas of the world to overtake you. You can overcome the drama that is in your life by trusting in Jesus.

    When the calendar turns to a new year, many of us take the time to reflect on the past. We think about the good times and the difficult times we have been through. We think about opportunities we might have missed or things we might have done better. That

    Here we are at the beginning of a new year. At the Watchnight service, we talked a little bit about resolutions. I don’t know whether you make resolutions or not, but what I do know is that you have probably done some reflecting on the past year. That what we do when the calendar turns. ...read more

    A Life Unwasted

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 23, 2022
     | 1,323 views

    When human beings ignore the law of God, set up for our benefit, laid down so that human families and societies will be places to grow and prosper, everything is constantly on the verge of utter disorder.

    A Life Unwasted The other evening I was watching an old movie, and by that I mean from the eighties of the last century. It wasn’t particularly good, but it dramatized a lot about the culture of Washington, DC residents living at the top of the socio-economic heap at the time. One of the ...read more

     | 18,250 views

    As we remember the birth of Christ and the significance of His prophetic names, It is also very empowering to realise the awesome power of His resurrection as this gives us the assurance that life is worth living . And because Jesus lives, we can face tomorrow.

    There are times in life when we feel life is not worth living because we are faced with one hopeless situation or the other. 1 Sam 30:3-20 described how David felt when he lost his possessions to the enemy. The bible says David and his men wept until they have no more strength to weep because the ...read more

    In 1967, she prayed this prayer, “Father, I give my life to You. Whatever you ask of me, I accept. Just teach me to follow Jesus and to love as He loves.” The fire quickly spread, even to other Christian denominations.

    On Tesco's brand of Tiramisu dessert, printed on the bottom of the box, it says, “DO NOT TURN UPSIDE DOWN.”1—(too late!) I want to consider how the Holy Spirit has a way of turning things upside down. Like in the Acts of the Apostles in our First Reading, the devout Jews from every nation ...read more
