Consecration

Yesterday, December 25, 2022 was Christmas. Today we realize that Christmas Day has come and gone. Some decorations, lights and trees might still be around for a few days … but Christmas has come and gone … has it? You see, if we live for Christmas with all the presents and festivities, then it has […]

Purpose

A very blessed Christmas to you as we remember God’s Incarnation! The Day has arrived! Christmas Day. I don’t say “Merry Christmas” … I say Blessed Christmas” because I want to veer away from merriment for a while and lift up Christmas as a blessed occasion because on it we celebrate God coming to earth […]

Incarnation

We live in an age of promiscuity! Wait! Let me rather put it like this … the race has always lived in promiscuity. Without consulting far-ancient to modern historians, we find the Bible filled with illustrations of this to teach how God does not want us to live. Not only is promiscuity alive and well, […]

God Incarnate

On Sunday night, the family and I drove through […]

In the Greatest Tragedy

In seven days’ time, the world celebrates Christmas. For most people this is a time of holiday, parties, presents, good food, visiting people, going on holiday … and there is nothing really wrong with all these things. In some parts of the world, Christmas is unknown or rejected because other religions celebrate their religious days […]

Opening Up the Word

I was pushed a little to return to Church because according to my wife, our eldest son (then our only child) needed to attend Sunday School. My wife came from a Roman Catholic background. What did she know about Sunday School? She never attended Sunday School and when I met her, she was “a non-practicing […]

Remedial Action

When I was a child at school, they had remedial classes for the children who did not achieve a certain standard in a particular subject. The intention was three fold. (i) Punishment … most children who landed up in the remedial class after school could do better but would not. (ii) Correction … this class […]
