Is Jesus a Hill You're Willing To Die On? | Standing for The Truth
We'll be the first to admit that we LOVE Jesus, but also struggle with loving ourselves. In the gospels, we are taught the importance of dying to self in order to follow Christ - eg Luke 14:26, Matthew 10:37, John 12:25 - so quite clearly this is something Jesus knew we would struggle with! In…

Everytime I Sin, I Break Jesus' Heart | The Central Issue: Love & Selfishness?
When you realise the ongoing war that we have been born into, you realise why it's important to put on the armour of God DAILY. The devil is on the attack and his strategy is to deceive and destroy you and me. Persecution is one of his forms of doing this. No one wants pain, or hurt or any type…

It's the last lesson of the quarter but it isn't the last time you can study psalms (God willing). We've learnt a lot of lessons centred around the 5 books in Psalms - from poems of praise, thanksgiving, victory all the way to laments - psalms provide a true guide of life's ups and downs. As we...

Keep A Song In My Heart | Worship That Never Ends
It's easy to bless or praise God when you see Him working (as sometimes we forget that he is ALWAYS working) but when we are going through the thick of it, our (or maybe my) conversations are filled with cries for help and laments and less of praise, worship and blessings. How to I praise God,...

Learning From Others' Mistakes | Learning of the Past
The Bible is what we like to call an All-In-One genre type of book. You get science, mystery, romance, thriller, self-help (Christ Help), poetry, true crime, action and of course history! (This list is not exhaustive). Google (our bestfriend) states that studying history helps us understand and...

A Form Of Worship Is Purely Your Lifestyle | Your Mercy Reaches Out To Heaven
In the Psalms, the voices of God’s people join as one in repeating the chorus “His mercy endures forever” in celebration of God’s eternal love. “Not to praise God would mean to forget all His benefits, not to appreciate God’s gifts.

How Can God Owe You?! (Proverbs 19:17) | I Will Arise (SDA Sabbath School Study)
The world has always known pain, unfairness, and people being pushed down.

He Ate His Tears for Dinner..?! | Singing the Lord’s Song in a Strange Land
