    Christians often sing "Joy To The World" as a Christmas carol... but that's not what Isaac Watts wanted to sing about when he first wrote the song. Why did Watts write this song, and what can that mean for us?

    Back in the 1700s, there was a man who wrote hymns… a lot of hymns (nearly 750 songs during his lifetime). He was a very famous and popular song writer in his day – and his name was Isaac Watts. He wrote a several songs that are still being sung today and we’re going to sing a few of them… a ...read more

    How helpless is man though he holds position, power, wealth and fame! Not knowing what is lying ahead, all he has are a loan from his creator God- leaving everything here on this side of the eternity when he departs this world.

    Live today! Never miss today’s blessings. God is a God of present tense. He calls Himself “ I am that I am”. Many of us dream of a better future when we can enjoy the life comfortably without the struggles we have now. It is only a human hope, with no sound base (Proverbs 19:21) . None of us know ...read more
