Contributed by Bala Samson on Dec 3, 2015

Did you know the person who points out your mistakes gently and explains the repercussions of your sins actually is very concerned of your soul rather than the person who turns a blind eye to your mistakes?

Nice Man! Ecclesiastes 7:5”It is better to heed the rebuke of a wise person than to listen to the song of fools.” The conundrum today is who is the nice man !!!! As we watch and read of the verbal wars of very highly educated people on print and media and their derogatory and ...read more

Mary's Song

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 13, 2015

The Magnificat. We should take Mary seriously. Jesus' mother is also our mother. She is a “mother” to all who accept Jesus as Lord. Her most significant role is to point us to her Son.

Christmas songs bring back memories. When I hear certain carols, I'm transported back to my childhood in Germany. I especially remember Stille Nacht, the German hymn by Fr Joseph Mohr that celebrates Jesus, born of a virgin, sleeping in heavenly peace. Here in Luke chapter one we see Mary's song, ...read more
