    In a national time of revival in the country of Belfast in 1922-23, converted shipyard workers brought back tools and equipment they had stolen. They brought them back in such quantity, that an additional storage shed had to be built to hold the tools once stolen.

A survey of 583 companies in the U.S. revealed: “90% of the respondents said their organizations’ computers had been breached at least once by hackers over the past 12 months.” More than 40% of the businesses surveyed stated they had spent ...read more

    Ever wished you could have prevented a great tragedy? Just as there are great physical tragedies with lasting consequence, so there are great spiritual tragedies with eternal consequence. The Apostle Paul seeks to prevent a great spiritual tragedy in the fledgling church at Corinth, Greece.

    How many of you here have been associated with a preventable tragedy? What I'm talking about here are bad things that happened to people you knew or know which could have been prevented. These bad things would not have happened if someone hadn't been ignorant or naïve, or ...read more

    John 8:2-11 The Stone Dropped: How Jesus Turned A Legal Trap Into A Call For Self-Examination

    Contributed by Ellick Wu on Jan 6, 2026
     | 115 views

    Now we come to study John 8:2-11. A familiar story about “The Woman Caught in Adultery” and the well-known phrase, “He who is without sin throws the first stone.” Let’s explore the Hypocrisy in the Temple that day, and challenge the judgmental spirit alive in our world today.

    Imagine the scene: The temple court is quiet, filled with people eager to hear Jesus teach. But the peace is about to shatter. Suddenly, a group of powerful religious leaders storms in, dragging a terrified woman to the center. They haven't come for justice; they've come to set a trap. They ...read more
