Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Feb 16, 2022

Children are gifts from God. Christian parents should recognise that they are care givers, trusted with a charge to raise and nurture godly children for God. It is an arduous but rewarding task if properly executed.

Behold Your King! (John 18:28-19:16) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 6, 2022

When we look at Jesus during his trial, what do we see? Who do we see? Also, Pilate should not be read sympathetically. He's not open-minded, and he fears the wrong thing/person.

When you read commentators on the Gospel of John, there are two very different ways to understand our story today, about Jesus' trial before Pilate. Everyone agrees that the focus of today's story, in many ways, is on Pilate. He is the only one in every scene. He's like the glue that ...read more
