    Funeral message for Mr. Jeremiah Reese, a businessman to whom one of our members had witnessed in his closing weeks, and who requested that his funeral focus on Ecclesiastes 3.

    The other night, as all too often happens, I fell asleep in front of the television set, watching who-knows-what and who-knows-why. It’s just one of the more disturbing realities about getting a little older – that if I sit still for more than about twenty minutes, I’ll get sleepy. I’ll try to ...read more

     | 14,452 views

    Failure is not fatal if we remember that (1) everybody fails, (2) God’s love is not dependent upon your success, and (3) the lessons learnt from it.

    Have you ever made a mistake? Welcome to the human race. It just means you’re alive. Everyone wants to succeed. The society wants us to succeed. It puts undue pressure on us. People will do anything – lie, cheat, steal – in order to succeed. Striving for success is good. There is nothing ...read more

    Without the macroscopic and microscopic vision of how we are to grow up in all aspects in to Christ, we will fall short of God’s plan for our lives.

Yet, without maturity we cannot become all that God wants us to be. Neither can we know all that the ...read more
