WHAT IS DISCIPLESHIP?
Matthew 28:16-20; Romans 12; 1 Corinthians 12 What is discipleship and what is Jesus calling us to in Matthew 28:18-20? Is this a command, or a suggestion; does it mean we are just to evangelize and let people find their faith on their own, or does this mean we are to lead others and teach […]
THE COST OF FOLLOWING CHRIST
Following Christ is never easy and just in case one happened to live with that illusion that it is easy, then such person have not come to terms with the fact that as Christians we are constantly battling between what we want and what God’s plan has designed for us. When we come to serve […]
DEAR MISSIONARY (7)
Dear Missionary, Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. As we step into this new year, I want you to know that I am deeply grateful for your life, your obedience, and your willingness to stand where many will not stand and serve where many will dare not go. […]
THE YEAR OF DISCIPLESHIP
There is a path we long to walk this season, though QUIET and often unseen, not adorned with treasures of this world but lots of labours and commitment. It is THE PATH OF DISCIPLESHIP, which is a daily choosing of Jesus, a life shaped by His WAYS, and a heart surrendered to His SPIRIT (Luke […]
Dear Missionary (6)
I write to you as one who understands the journey, from inside the dust, sweat, silence, and unseen labour of the field. I want to tell you about CONSISTENCY.

The Sawi people considered sago grubs which is a large, wriggling larvae, a delicacy. To Richardson, they were revolting. Every instinct in him resisted the plate placed before him, but […]
Let Christ Be The Centre
In the world that we are now, we find out that, in many churches, there are people who never met the Lord, didn’t surrender their lives to Him through repentance from their sins nor did they accept His Lordship. The only thing that makes them affiliated to Christ in a sense is that they go […]
WHY SPIRITUAL FIRE DIES & HOW TO KEEP IT BURNING
Many believers complain that they cannot sustain their burning for the Kingdom. Often, the blame is placed on the devil, saying things like “the enemy is quenching my fire.” But in this matter, I think differently. Who dares to stop a heavy-duty vehicle in motion except the driver? Who quenches a blazing fire except fire […]
Dear Missionary (3)
Dear Missionary, One of the most crucial ways to remain connected to those who partner with the work you are doing as a missionary is to keep them informed about every step of the work. The Apostle Paul, who is a worthy model for the work of missions, made sure that wherever he went, the […]
