    In order for miracles to happen, there needs to be the key ingredient of BELIEF. What would have happened if Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds and Magi had not believed what the angel from God told them?

    Every now and then every person asks for a miracle in their life. Can you recall miracles you have asked God for? Isn’t it great that we have the ability to ask God for such a thing? A miracle is a visible interruption of the laws of nature, such that can only be explained by divine ...read more

    Is it really the good works of the "sheep" that will secure their salvation?

    How do I measure up? I don’t think I can be accused of exaggerating if I say that this is one of the most difficult passages of scripture in the entire Bible (Matthew 25: 31-46). It’s what teenagers today might call “in your face”. It confronts and challenges us at the very core of our being; it ...read more

    The real need is not a new year, but rather the transformation into a new person.

    “For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing.” ...read more
