In the Parable of the Lost Sheep a shepherd, from among the humblest of society, loses one sheep out of a hundred, he leaves the ninety-nine and tirelessly searches for the lost one. Once found, he joyfully carries the sheep back home. This shepherd's dedication is seen in Jesus, our seeking Savior, who carries us through life's rough patches, always eager to bring us back into the fold.  Read More

Contrary to what we most often hear, this parable centers not on humanity but on God. This is a depiction of a God whose grace, love, and mercy are unbounded, who is indiscriminate in where His seeds—His messages of love and hope—fall. God's perspective doesn’t segregate the world into good or bad soil. Every heart, every condition, is worthy of His love.   Read More

What does it mean to be of "one heart and one soul"? It's not just about practicing the same doctrines or simply avoiding conflict.

a husband is encouraged to love his wife completely, as he loves himself. This oneness is underlined in Ephesians 5:31. The last verse in the chapter calls for husbands to out-serve their wife and lead in a way that aligns with God's calling for husbands. It underscores the need to prioritize the marriage covenant, for God himself is highly invested in it.  Read More

Mary's ultimate act of worship came from her ability to listen attentively. By listening, we can worship more deeply and be used by God in powerful ways. To truly listen, we must humble ourselves, acknowledging that we don't know everything, and pay attention to both the words spoken and the meaning behind them. In a world where many hear but few truly listen, we are challenged to examine our own listening habits and ask ourselves, "Are we truly listening?"  Read More

Marriage should be bathed in humility, unselfishness, and self-denial. The general spirit of all relationships should be the one of submission. Beginning in Ephesians 5.22, Paul focuses on wives as the first example. Then he will address husbands, children, and parents. The entire section from 5.22-6.4 serves as an illustration of the principle in 5.21. We don’t do this passage justice if we think submission is only for wives. Christian men and women are driven by the example of Jesus Christ, who selflessly placed the needs of others ahead of himself.  Read More
