This episode is part of my podcast series DEAR ATHEIST… If you prefer, LISTEN NOW. ***** The story of ‘The Prodigal Son‘ is a definite favourite among Christians. We love it! I love it too because it’s the most explicit description of God’s extraordinary grace. And the lesson is enough to […]
This episode is part of my podcast series DEAR ATHEIST… If you prefer, LISTEN NOW. ***** Many of us take for granted the simple message of the gospel that we have received and accepted as the TRUTH. We’ve heard it so many times in Church, read it in so many pamphlets, […]
I’ve been listening to Joel Osteen’s podcast for about three months now, listening to 3 or more episodes almost every day. I have been encouraged, motivated, inspired, challenged, and altogether blessed. I’ve also shared a couple of the ones that really resonated with me on my WhatsApp status… […]

In the Bible App, today, the question was posed, “What about eternal life encourages you today?” Of the three options given, I chose, “I will have perfect community with God.” This is because, for me, the trauma of living in this realm is the uncertainty of life, its […]
We all do it, I’m sure. Wonder “what if I’d done this and not that?” “What if I’d been there or not been there?” “What if I’d listened to that person or chosen a different action?” Such thinking serves only to frustrate and torment us, because it changes […]

This dishonourable title is actually well earned, because our expectations pave the way for disappointment, bitterness and resentment, which steal our joy from enjoying whatever is good in our marriage.
