    Lament For Mighty Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jul 4, 2020
     | 4,658 views

    This lamentation had written for the honor of King Saul and Jonathan. It is a homage rendered to them. The spiritual fall led him to have physical death before his enemies. Jonathan had fallen because of his company with his father. Take heed lest you fall.

    Text: 2 Samuel 1:17-27 Theme: The Mighty Have Fallen I greet you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The LORD is Good; His steadfast love endures forever. God willing this month we will be meditating under the theme “Take heed lest you fall”(1 Corinthians 10:4). As we are going ...read more

    How do we live in harmony? The secret is in the Lord’s Prayer, the beautiful prayer of the end-times that we recite in one voice every time we gather for Liturgy.

    2nd Sunday of Advent With this great reading about John the Baptist from Matthew’s Gospel, you probably expect me to sermonize on repenting of sin as a preparation for Christmas. You might anticipate an exhortation to examine your consciences, identify those actions and attitudes that estrange ...read more

    Seventh Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year C -- The Word Nonviolent Can Be An Adjective, It Modifies How

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 20, 2025
     | 612 views

    Jesus is asking us today not so much as “how can I find a gracious God? But “How can I find God in my enemy?” And, how can we be children of God in real life without loving our enemies?

    The fictional Klingon language from Star Trek has no words for love. Of course, the Klingons were creatures of pure logic, not emotion. So, the closest words for “love” in their language were “honor” or “unhate.” That would be easy for us if we could define love simply as “unhating” others. ...read more

    The Death Of A King And The Cost Of Disobedience (1 Samuel 31:1-13)

     | 911 views

    Saul, the first king of Israel, had been a good and godly man at the beginning of his reign, but his rejection of God's plans for his life and his refusal to walk with the LORD brought about his inevitable downfall and demise.

    1 Samuel 31 records the death of King Saul and his three sons, including the man who was David's dearest friend, Prince Jonathan. When David heard of Saul's death at the hand of Israel's bitter enemy, the Philistines, there was no joy in his soul nor sense of relief from having been ...read more

    Finding Suitable Armor: David Versus Goliath

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jun 15, 2024
     | 1,576 views

    The story of David and Goliath is well-known. Little David serves as Israel's champion and defeats Goliath with the help of the Lord. But there is even a bigger Goliath that we face who taunts us every day. So we need a better champion. This is Jesus Christ. For Proper 7 After Pentecost, year B

    Finding Suitable Armor: David Versus Goliath 1 Samuel 17:32–39 NKJV Then David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a ...read more

    Responding To The Fall Of A Leader Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 5, 2025
     | 289 views

    David did not take advantage of Saul’s fall to promote himself, nor did he speak evil of the dead. Instead, he mourned with dignity and expressed honour to God’s anointed.

    RESPONDING TO THE FALL OF A LEADER By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 2 Samuel 1:1-27 Supporting Texts: Psalm 75:6-7, Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, 1 Chronicles 10:13-14, Matthew 5:44, Romans 12:15 INTRODUCTION: The death of a leader is often a defining moment in the life of a nation, an organisation, or ...read more

     | 13,058 views

    Who would have blamed David if he had taken his sword and plunged it in the back of Saul for all that Saul had done to him? David drew his sword, but sliced off a portion of Saul’s robe. He felt guilty. His conscience pricked him. How is your conscience?

    SERIES: DAVID - A MAN AFTER GOD’S OWN HEART: Part 8: How Is Your Conscience? 1. 1 Samuel 24:1 After Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, he was told, “David is in the Desert of En Gedi.” 2 So Saul took three thousand able young men from all Israel and set out to look for ...read more

    Doing What God Asks Us To Do!

     | 4,312 views

    God gave Saul an instruction but Saul only half-carried it out. This short homily is a challenge to us: Let’s do all that God asks us to do; nothing more AND nothing less!

    In these days of terrorism this Bible event is hard for us to understand; and I know of one or two people who have rejected God because of it. The irony is of course that the story is primarily kept for us as a warning not to reject God’s instructions! Hundreds of years ago, stories such as this ...read more

     | 6,134 views

    The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 Samuel 15. The man who stood head and shoulders above all the people is imploding like a skyscraper building with the walls blown out.

    The bigger they are the harder they fall. It is dramatic to see a skyscraper building brought to the ground. Dynamite blows out the walls and the building collapses to the ground. What once filled the skyline becomes reduced to a pile of rubble. The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 ...read more

    Consequences Of Disobedience In Leadership Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 5, 2025
     | 552 views

    Disobedience in leadership is dangerous because it misrepresents God to His people. As seen in Saul’s life, disobedience can lead to spiritual blindness, rejection, and destruction—not only of the leader but of those under him.

    CONSEQUENCES OF DISOBEDIENCE IN LEADERSHIP By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Samuel 13:8-14; 1 Samuel 15:1-28 Supporting Texts: Numbers 20:7-12, Deuteronomy 28:15, Ezekiel 34:2-10, James 3:1, Hebrews 12:25 INTRODUCTION: Leadership in God’s kingdom carries great responsibility.

    A look at what jealousy did to Saul (and what it usually does to us).

    - Examples: 1. The neighbor with more stuff. 2. The sibling with more attention. 3. The co-worker with more success. - Jealousy is one of those sins that we treat as not being a big deal.
