The resurrection of Jesus isn’t merely a spiritual symbol; it's a decisive moment in history, marking the beginning of God’s ultimate restoration of creation. Revelation 21:5 powerfully declares, "Then the one seated on the throne said, 'Look, I am making everything new.'"  Read More

Two thousand years ago, the Jewish people anxiously awaited a king, a mighty warrior Messiah to free them from Roman oppression. Yet, when Jesus made his grand entry into Jerusalem, he wasn't adorned in royal splendor or mounted on a warhorse. Instead, he rode a borrowed donkey, without armor, surrounded not by soldiers but fishermen, tax collectors, and ordinary followers. On Palm Sunday, God showed the world that His ways are not ours. His kingdom would not come through earthly power but divine humility.  Read More

Lent creates space to examine what we’re holding onto and why. Are we clinging to reputation more than humility? Are we guarding our legacy instead of following Jesus with open hands? Paul is reminding us that anything—no matter how impressive—that competes with Christ in our hearts has to be laid down.  Read More

Before his encounter with Christ, Paul viewed the world through a lens shaped by status, law, and tribe. He saw people according to their past, their performance, their appearance. But on the road to Damascus, something broke open. The resurrected Christ didn’t just confront Paul’s sin—He transformed Paul’s vision. Suddenly, the categories by which Paul had organized the world crumbled. Now, through the cross, he saw people not as enemies or inferiors, but as beloved image-bearers, potential brothers and sisters in Christ.  Read More

Imagine a spring. Not a manufactured fountain, but a natural one—tucked into a hillside, untouched, bubbling up from deep within the earth. Its waters are cool, clear, and sweet. You kneel and drink. It's not a rush—it’s a whisper. Personal. Sacred. This is where many of us meet God for the first time.  Read More

One of the most powerful ways we can actively wait on the Lord is through prayer. Psalm 27:7 reminds us of the importance of crying out to God, “LORD, hear my voice when I call; be gracious to me and answer me.” When we seek God in prayer, we acknowledge our dependence on Him and invite His guidance into our lives. But prayer is not just about speaking; it is also about listening, trusting that God is working even when we do not see immediate results.  Read More

Lent is a time of reflection, sacrifice, and renewal. When you hear the word Lent, what comes to mind? Perhaps it reminds you of fasting, prayer, or the tradition of giving up something like social media or sweets. But Lent is more than just a season of self-denial—it is an opportunity for spiritual transformation. It is a call to pour ourselves out before God so that we may be filled with His presence.  Read More

Hebrews 1:1-2 reminds us: “Long ago God spoke to our ancestors by the prophets at different times and in different ways. In these last days, he has spoken to us by his Son.” Jesus is not merely one more in a line of great teachers—He is the ultimate revelation of God. The Transfiguration shows that Jesus stands above all others. He is not just a messenger of God; He is God Himself.  Read More

Christianity does not merely promise a spiritual afterlife but a bodily resurrection—a complete transformation into eternal life with God. In 1 Corinthians 15:35-50, Paul answers a question that many still ask today: What kind of body will we have when we are resurrected? The biblical teaching on resurrection is often misunderstood. Many believe that after death, we become disembodied spirits floating in heaven, but Scripture paints a different picture. Our future hope is not just about “going to heaven” but about bodily resurrection in a renewed creation. To fully grasp the significance of this promise, we must understand three key truths: resurrection is not an escape but a transformation, resurrection begins now, and resurrection changes how we live today.  Read More

Unforgiveness is like carrying a heavy chain around our necks, burdening us with emotions that God never intended for us to hold onto. The pain of betrayal, hurtful words, and broken trust can make it difficult to forgive, but when we refuse to forgive, we are the ones imprisoned. Instead of punishing the offender, we end up punishing ourselves, allowing anger and pain to take root in our hearts.  Read More

The resurrection assures us that our past is forgiven. No matter our history, Christ’s victory over sin secures our redemption. Paul, a former persecutor, was made new. The same grace that transformed him is available to all who trust in Christ.  Read More

Throughout scripture, we see that God’s calling is deeply personal. He calls individuals by name, knowing their strengths, weaknesses, and potential. Consider how Jesus called His disciples. He didn’t pick the most educated or influential individuals; instead, He chose fishermen, tax collectors, and ordinary people. Their purpose was not defined by their status but by God’s divine calling.  Read More

When we place our faith in Jesus, we are baptized by one Spirit into one body (v. 13). This means that all believers, regardless of background, ethnicity, or status, are united in Christ. As Paul writes in Galatians 3:28, “There is no Jew or Greek, slave or free, male and female; since you are all one in Christ Jesus.”  Read More

This truth invites us into a life of purpose and contribution, challenging us to see our gifts not as isolated talents but as part of God’s grand design. Whether you’re deeply involved in ministry or still searching for your place, this passage reveals that God has a role for everyone in His kingdom. It’s not about what you can’t do—it’s about what God can do through you.  Read More

Jesus’ baptism inaugurates His public ministry and confirms His divine authority. It is not a private moment; it is a public declaration. Much like a coronation ceremony for a king, this act affirms that Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah, the Son of God who will bring redemption to the world.  Read More

The concept of a "mystery" in Scripture refers to a divine plan or truth that was once hidden but has now been revealed by God. In this case, the mystery is the inclusion of Gentiles—those once considered outsiders—as full participants in God’s promises.  Read More

The prophet Isaiah spoke words of hope, challenge, and promise centuries before the arrival of Jesus. These words ring just as true today, offering us three powerful truths to hold onto this Christmas: comfort for the weary, a call to prepare, and the glorious revelation of God.  Read More

This prophecy declares that the Messiah, though entering the world as a humble child, will establish an eternal kingdom of peace and righteousness. This truth is especially poignant in today’s world, where uncertainty, fear, and chaos dominate our news feeds.

When life feels overwhelming, we can find rest in the arms of our Shepherd. He carries us when we are too weak to carry ourselves. His care is not just for the strong or the capable but especially for the vulnerable, the weary, and the brokenhearted.  Read More

Isaiah 61 provides a profound declaration of the Messiah’s mission, a mission focused on bringing good news to the poor, healing the brokenhearted, and liberty to the captives. These ancient words reverberate with hope, reminding us that no matter how shattered life may seem, restoration is not only possible but promised.  Read More

Just as spring follows winter, the Messiah brings restoration where despair once reigned. We’ve all experienced seasons of waiting—times when we’ve prayed for renewal in our lives, families, or communities. Just as God fulfilled His promise to Israel, He is faithful to fulfill His promises to us today.  Read More

Isaiah 53 challenges us to live out our redemption by embodying Jesus’ love, kindness, and humility. Our lives become a testament to His sacrifice when we pursue justice, extend compassion, and embrace the call to be lights in a dark world. Jesus’ suffering wasn’t an end; it was the beginning of God’s work of redemption in the world, a work that continues through each of us as we live out our faith.  Read More

In our own lives, the presence of God through Jesus is just as real. This truth assures us that no matter what we face, we are never alone. Whether in the middle of a personal crisis, an illness, or a season of uncertainty, we can take heart knowing that God is with us. He walks with us, sharing in our struggles and offering hope that cannot be taken away.  Read More

At the core of walking with God is abiding in His love. Enoch’s life with God was not transactional; it was relational, rooted in God’s love and Enoch’s response to that love.   Read More
