Rahab’s story, recorded in Joshua chapter 2, gives us an insight into what everyone in Jericho knew.

Jesus, St. Peters in a storm

Storms Are Faith Testers

Storms are never welcomed experiences, and no one in their right mind walks into a storm just for fun. Storms come as surprises when we are least prepared for them. They are usually overwhelming, beyond our control, defy our escape strategies, and show no respect for age, gender, race, or religion. The COVID experience was five years ago, and its […]

What Wrong Has God Done to You?

What Wrong Has God Done to You?

“I have nothing against God,” a brother declared. What a profound statement to make! Not many of us can sincerely repeat that statement from our hearts. Although we know God’s character that He is good, Loving, caring, perfect, kind, gracious, and the list goes on, yet secretly, we charge God with negligence, insensitivity, and not caring for us as we […]

Moses said to the LORD, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but You have not let me know whom You will send with me. You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have found favor with Me.’ If You are pleased with me, teach me Your ways so that I may know You and continue to […]
