Trials Through the Lens of Faith | Pastor Solomon Adeiza
This sermon by Pastor Solomon Adeiza, calls believers to view suffering not through fear or confusion, but through the clarity of faith. Peter reminds us that we have been born again to a living hope; an eternal inheritance kept in heaven and guarded by God Himself. Yet in this present world, trials come “for a little while,” not by accident but by God’s wise and necessary purpose.In this sermon we learn that:-Trials are real and painful, and Scripture does not deny the grief they cause.-God allows them at the right time, for the right purpose, in His perfect providence.-They serve as a refining fire, revealing the genuineness of our faith—more precious than gold.-Through suffering, God strengthens our assurance, deepens our obedience, and draws praise and glory to Himself.And even in hardships, we rejoice because our hope is anchored in the risen Christ, whom we love though we have not seen.This message is a needed reminder that the Christian life is inseparable from trials, yet every trial is held within the sovereign care of God. Listen and be encouraged to endure with joy, trusting that your faith is being refined for His glory and your eternal good.Grace to you.

In our last Dear African church discussion, we asked a necessary question:Moralism & Hyper-Grace — What Is the True Gospel?We unpacked these terms, exposed how they show up in today’s church, and traced how both extremes have shaped the African Christian experience.We talked about:• Legalism disguised as holiness• Hyper-grace disguised as freedom• Tithing and transactional faith• Prophets and the temptation of spiritual authority• Our relationship with sin• And ultimately how the true gospel rescues us from both extremesThe gospel is Christ crucified, risen, saving, sanctifying.Let’s keep returning to Christ alone, because only Christ defines the gospel!

Dear African Church: Is the African Church Christ-Centered?
In this first episode of our Dear African Church series, we sat down with Pastor Murungi Igweta and Olamide Falase to wrestle with a vital question: Is the African church Christ-centered?We discussed the troubling rise of the prosperity gospel and why it is so attractive in our context; because sinful hearts often expect what God has not promised. Yet we also saw why this message is so dangerous: it distorts the cross, cheapens suffering, and shifts the church’s focus from Christ to earthly gain.Together, we reflected on:- Why Christ alone is the true Head of the church, not any pastor or “man of God”- The danger of man-centered worship and music that distracts from the gospel- The urgent need for biblical literacy in our churches- The true gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ- How believers can reject falsehood and replace it with sound doctrineWe invite you to listen, reflect, and pray with us for a Christ-centered church.
