✝🙏Easter is the most significant part of the year for Christian believers.  Where we reflect on the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Ultimately, it was because of this wonderful act of mercy, the gift of such undeserving grace – we were saved from God’s righteous wrath. Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” 

Watch 🎥 this EASTER TALANOA from Fresh Truth Ministries as we unpack together the true meaning behind the Easter season. Check out, share, comment & ask any questions in the section below. Otherwise, please keep praying for this work to encourage believers and honour the LORD. 🧐🤔👍🙏

Mālō le Soifua Maua ma le Lagi e Mamā, Our wonderful guest for this last podcast episode for the year #ChristInTheComunity, is the awesome Gillianne Ray, Samoan, and born & raised in Māngere, South Auckland (finally someone outside of the 274 ha!) but currently living in the Westside. A wife, mother and a passionate community worker and specialist adviser, you’ll get hear a little bit about Gillianne’s Samoan upbringing, but then how a certain act in her life made her reject the culture and ultimately belief in God. Listen to how Gillianne comes through all of that, back into the arms of our Mighty Saviour (who I might suggest, never let go of His daughter). Gillianne touches on is a very sensitive issue, so if listening to this brings up anything in particular for you, please reach out to us, and we can connect you to some good Christian professionals who deal with that particular topic. Wishing you all a blessed and wonderful Christmas, celebrating and acknowledging the Immanuel – 'God With Us', and a New Year in Him.“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom His favor rests” (Luke 2: 14)

Soifua, ma ia manuia.

Comment, like & share whanau. BLESSED CHRISTmas from our Fresh Truth whanau to yours! For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Mālō le Soifua Maua ma le Lagi e Mamā,  Things are opening up even more here in Aukilani but not enough for us to get our usual Podcast out. As we’ve mentioned, the Fresh Truth crew have developed a series of shorter Pods called #ChristintheCommunity, which are done online via ZOOM & are hosted by one of the Fresh Truth brothers - Richy Misilei (Samoan). CHRIST IN THE COMMUNITY highlights how different Christians in our neighbourhoods of South Auckland are representing Jesus, living out their faith, & being salt & light in our communities.  Our wonderful guest for this Podcast episode is the wonderful Antoinette Tiatia, Samoan & born & raised in Ōtara, South Auckland (still carrying on that ‘Ōtara’ theme lol). If you have a proper dictionary, next to the words ‘hard worker’, ‘supporting behind the scenes’, ‘slogging it out’, etc., you’ll find Antoinette’s name next to it. Not only does she exhibit these traits in her extensive community work, but also in the gym. Check out this inspiring testimony from our sister in Christ and how her Christianity shapes her work.  And oh, we’ve received feedback from people that they want to see faces, so this will be the first episode you’ll see actual people talking, not just the audio. Soifua, ma ia manuia.
