The Foundation and Purpose of Unity in Christ

The unity that the Lord desires is not about agreeing on everything. Our Lord created diversity, and the Church is where unity thrives in God-created and God-appointed diversity. The unity among believers is based on being different parts of Christ’s body with differing functions, gifts and abilities. We must be aware of the presence of the Head, Christ JesusContinue reading “The Foundation and Purpose of Unity in Christ”

How to Overcome? Philippians 4 (30 min)

Independence is celebrated today as a strength. The concept of total self-reliance is opposite to Biblical teaching (John 15:4-5).

In this “time of shaking”, values, health, economies, and environments are undergoing intense upset, and many people are revaluating their beliefs. It is critical to spiritual health to have confidence in something that is not subject to the manipulation of imperfect human beings. After my last blog on Ephesians 1 titled “Marked Pre-paid for Pickup“, I hadContinue reading “BUT GOD!”
