November 26, 2025 Who Do You Trust?
This episode unpacks Proverbs 3:5-6. It deals with the concept of trust. In life trust is a concept that we engage with daily. We operate in the sphere of trust with the mundane things of life as well as major life events. However, when it comes to trust, are we trusting in our own capabilities, intellect, or resources. If so, we have begun to operate from the seat of self-sufficiency which often leads to the exclusion of God in every respect of life. Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) informs every reader to "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths." Trust God as opposed to trusting in our human logic and resources.

July 19, 2022 Weekly Spotlight: How Can We Fall Asleep Part 2
This episode is a continuation of How Can We Falll Asleep Part 1 that addresses the crucial aspect of the alertness of every Christian. When we look at the world around us and all that is unfolding before our eyes, as Christians we need to be aware of the times in which we live and have a sense of urgency in advancing the kingdom of God by declaring His truth. It is imperative that believers be vigilant and attentive as to not be lured into spiritual sleep due to the indulgences of the world. Romans 13:11-14 addresses the dangers of spiritual lethargy and how it prevents us from being operative in the kingdom of God. It is our duty to be watchful and to be engaged in carrying out the will of God as we have been redeemed to bring glory to God as a result of our salvation. Let us do the will of God urgently as the final culmination of our salvation draws near.

June 13, 2022 Weekly Spotlight: The Command To Love: The Extent Of Love
The command to love is essential to the believer’s life. Love is the lifeblood of our faith. Without such a command, our faith would be no different from any other religion. It is the extended love of God through Christ dying on the cross that allows believers to experience such freedom.
Christ’s sacrifice on the cross is the greatest and most intense demonstration of love ever shown towards humanity. Without such an example, man’s inferior acts of love will fall short of God’s standards, but because of it, mankind will not only experience this love but is able to extend this love to others. What great depths Christ went through to extend this love to the world.
