    As the message delivered by Jesus transitions for followers to embrace Him as Master, many chose to leave. The Lord questioned His disciples, asking, "Do you want to go away as well?" Peter answered for all who will follow the Saviour, asking, "Lord, to whom shall we go?"

    “Jesus said to the Twelve, ‘Do you want to go away as well?’ Simon Peter answered him, ‘Lord, to whom shall we go?

That’s why, if we recall our theme this month “I am Vigilant, I am Prepared for Eternity” we are called to be watchful and be on guard always as ...read more

    What happens when you stay in something long enough to make it a lifestyle while claiming a love for and complete devotion to Christ?

    There is something that I struggle to reconcile as a church leader sometimes. It is the incongruency of the peoples’ actions with their claim to love and believe in Jesus Christ. Let me start by admitting that I have done some pretty stupid and sinful things in my life. I have made a complete fool ...read more
