    Jesus taught the beatitudes as the hallmark of the followers of Christ. But how they can relate to the world? Jesus never intended for an isolated and exclusive community but he rather wanted to reach the whole world with his message of love.

    Text: Matthew 5:14-16 Theme: Let your Light Shine Introduction: I was amused to see the reflectors on the highways in the early days of night travel. The reflector was first invented in 1917 by Henry Chrétien to provide the army with a communication system the enemy could not intercept. in ...read more

    How do you see yourself? The answer to that question affects our attitudes, actions, responses and reactions to life’s circumstances. If we see ourselves as the helpless victim of Satan and his schemes, we will likely live like his victims and be in bondage to Satan’s lies. If we see ...read more

    This is the call to every believer - to awake out of sleep and shake the slumber off and reach out your hand to pull someone to safety. The world is lost in darkness but we the church must not be asleep in the light.

    You deserve a break today is the familiar slogan of Macdonald’s. It has a certain ring to it, doesn’t it! It has a certain allure that catches our attention. I do deserve a break today.

    Hebrews 4 calls us to work to rest. We do well when we do our work within the context of God’s rest.

We start all this with the goal of worshiping God… of expressing our thanks and devotion to Him. But with that said, I do want people to receive ...read more

    Mt 15:21-28 The Canaanite Woman Have you ever wondered why St Matthew included this story about Jesus in his Gospel? As you know the first century Jews used to refer to non- Jews as Gentile dogs.
