    To understand and embrace the fleeting nature of our earthly life, to live in Christ and not in the world, and to prepare for our eternal rest in Jesus.

    Good morning, family. Today, we're going to visit a somewhat overlooked gem in the Psalms, Psalm 39:1-13.

    Christmas: Our Savior Is Born

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Dec 20, 2025
     | 1,061 views

    God's greatest gift was delivered in the humblest of settings, revealing His love for humanity in a way that transcends time. This Christmas, as we reflect on this passage, may we embrace the quiet beauty of the nativity and open our hearts to the Savior born for us that holy night.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: "A small cathedral outside Bethlehem marks the supposed birthplace of Jesus. Behind a high altar in the church is a cave, a little cavern lit by sliver lamps. You can enter the main edifice and admire the ancient church. You can also enter the quiet cave where a star ...read more

    We live in an age obsessed with performance. We measure our worth by what we do, how busy we are, and how well we keep up. And tragically, that same spirit can creep into our faith.

    based on 1 rating
     | 712 views

    The great battle of discipleship in the 21st century is not persecution — it is distraction. “One thing I desire…” May it become the defining cry of our discipleship.

    “One Thing I Desire”: The Single-Minded Disciple in a Distracted World — Psalm 27:4 (NLT) Introduction: The Tyranny of Too Many Things We live in an age of endless options and constant noise.

    We live in an age of disconnection. Constant notifications, fractured attention, shallow relationships, and spiritual distraction mark the 21st century. Discipleship is not first about activity for Jesus, but abiding in Jesus.

     | 727 views

    God calls us to go — and rest in the peace of God. Not a peace the world gives, but a peace that comes through knowing Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.

    Go! And Rest in the Peace of God - Psalm 4:8 Psalm 4:8 (NLT): “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe.” Introduction: The Longing for Rest Have you ever laid your head on the pillow, yet your mind refuses to rest?

    based on 27 ratings
     | 91,145 views

    Jesus said we should love one another. But why bother to tell us to do it? Shouldn't it come naturally to us? Apparently not. So, what do we need to understand in order to obey this command that Jesus gave us?

     | 7,743 views

    One of God's promises that brings us hope is that death is not the end of life, but is just the beginning of something far better for the believer in Jesus. Jesus' resurrection is that proof that life does not end with death.

     | 5,938 views

    Jesus has one overriding concern in life - our welfare. He had compassion on us, sacrificing himself for our benefit. We take comfort in a God whom we can fully trust.

    To the early Christians, this particular event in the life of Jesus is an important one. It is the only miracle of Jesus that is reported in all 4 Gospels. Apparently there is something significant here that the 4 authors want us to see. After a particularly intense period of ministry, Jesus had ...read more
