    Any Christian who strayed away from the Lord is considered a "prodigal son". Are you one of them?

    Luke 15:11-25 Topic: Am I a prodigal son?

    From the story of Christmas, I learned practical lessons about SOVEREIGNTY, SOUL-MATE, SUBMISSION, AND SELF-SACRIFICE.

    THE CHRISTMAS STORY Luke 2:1-20 The play we just watched is called “The First Noel.” Of course, “Noel” is the name of the boy in the play. However, the word noel has its origin in the French language and it means Christmas. So, the “first noel” means the first Christmas. I saw two dominant ...read more

    To accept one another, we are to concentrate on the essentials.

    Last Good Friday, nineteen men were crucified in San Pedro Cutud, Pampanga. This Easter crucifixion tradition is “an extreme form of penance”[1] or trying to cleanse oneself from sin. It is good that the Roman Catholic Church expressed disapproval to the practice. According to a priest, “The church ...read more

    Age old adage, you can put earrings on a pig, but it’s still a _____. Peter could spot a pig a mile away (not bacon) …someone who claims to be one thing, but is in fact, a completely different thing entirely.

    There was no way that this group of men would ever be in the same room together, if not for Jesus. He calls us to love the people who do us wrong.

    In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Love one another. That’s a pretty tall order that Jesus left his apostles to carry out. We tend to think the loving one another is pretty easy, especially when we include a cut-off line. We love people like ourselves, and ...read more

    What does it take to change and live for Jesus, what does it take to move from belief in the Messiah to a follower of the Messiah. It takes transformation and it starts in your head. Do you dare to be different?
