If I were charged for every sin I've committed thus far, I'd never be able to pay the price. This is why the sacrifice on the cross (and Isaiah 53) moves me to tears. Jesus laid down His life as payment for my sins; there's no greater demonstration of love. He did the same for… Continue reading Paid in Full

Stephen’s Way
In the book of Acts we find a man named Stephen who pleaded for the forgiveness of those stoning him for being a believer. Next time people "stone" us with their words and actions (for whatever reason), instead of the usual approach (like fighting back), let's try Stephen's method. It may just have a better… Continue reading Stephen’s Way
A little work and BIG dreams

Today, let us remember the martyrs who have given their lives for the gospel and pray for their families. But it is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the… Continue reading The Cost of Believing
Bold and Bolder
We live in a bold society, where taboos are becoming extinct; the bad is called good and the norm is everything but normal. If society is bold, then we must be bolder in acknowledging our belief in Jesus. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings… Continue reading Bold and Bolder
