The Irrationality of Blame Game

Based on 1 Timothy 1:12-17 ‘The Irrationality of Blame Game’ draws the attention of listeners of this podcast to the fact that everyone of us is responsible for the wrongs and the rights of this world as our actions or inactions have great impact on the world. We are so good at trading blames with each other instead of simply looking inside of ourselves to see if we are a contributing factor. Blame gain however, is not new, its origin is firmly rooted in the creation narrative, Genesis 3:12-13) ...

What is your Skywriting?

Based on (Ephesians 4:4-13) 'What is your Skywriting?' Is an invitation to consider once more the nature of our calling in this life. Many people today are confused about their individual calling or vocation either by misunderstanding their real passion or were coaxed into whatever they are doing now. The story of the Graham brothers about the skywriting which they saw standing on the grounds of their family dairy farm provides us with a prop which I used in this podcast as what is your skywriti...

The Paradox of the Great Omission

Based on Matthew 28:16-20 ‘The Paradox of the Great Omission’ calls for an examination of what has come to be known as the ‘great commission’ which is in my view the very reason why Jesus Christ came to earth to die for the sins of mankind but it seem that by all indications the church has drifted afar from the great commission by omitting the critical attributes of the commission. This podcast, therefore, challenges listeners who have accepted the finished work of Jesus Christ at Calvary to ret...

The Enigmatic Nature of Grace

Based on (Titus 2:11-15) ‘The Enigmatic Nature of Grace’ is a reminder of the wonderful grace that God showed and continue to show his people but sometimes understanding this favour can be a daunting task however, this podcast ask us not to worry whether we understand how grace works or not as all that is needed to fall in line with God is to believe in him as Creator and Saviour of our souls.

Spiritual Condition of the Heart of Man

Based on Psalms 51:10-19 ‘Spiritual Condition of the Heart of Man’ brings to the listeners attention the importance of the spiritual condition of the Christian heart to salvation. This podcast draws from the beautiful plea of King David for God to create in him a new, clean heart and to have it filled with clean thoughts and right desires. Since the heart in terms of the Bible refer to the control nerve centre of the whole person where all desires comes from, it is of utmost importance to keep i...

Balancing Act

Based on Daniel 1:8-16 '' reminds listeners of this podcast the importance of living in a parallel world, a world of spiritual and material, sacred and secular. I reckon that this is sometime problematic and we are tempted to deny the fact, conversely, however much we deny this fact, it is the human reality. It is therefore this reality that I am referring to as balancing act. The question is not that this reality exist but how we as followers of Jesus Christ approach it. Misunderstanding parall...

Pathway to Somewhere

Based on Hebrews 11:1-16, ‘Pathway to Somewhere’ is a reminder to Christians of the singular reason why we are called Christians in the first instance. The primary disciples of Jesus Christ heard the Gospel of the Kingdom of God and accepted the offer of salvation and joined the pathway to heaven with Jesus Christ leading. Since then the reason for Christianity has not change but times has changed and we seem to be losing out on the primary reason why we became Christians because of the social d...

Like GPS operation, life is dynamic, and each morning is a start of another journey and there is an unwritten sign on an invisible surface reminding us of the need to re-centre our spiritual GPS Navigation Arrow so as to be able to have the right perspe...

The Nature of the Secret Council of God

Based on Job 2:1-10 “The Nature of the Secret Council of God” invites believers in Christ Jesus to consider their experiences of sufferings in the light of Job’s own experience and not to allow the ignorance of not knowing what transpired on their account in God’s Secret Council to derail them from believing in God. As people, whether of faith or none we are constantly pressured to wonder about the problem of evil in this world and we ask the age-old question, “Why do bad things happen to good p...

What’s on Your Vision Board?

Based on Habakkuk 2:1-4 “What’s on Your Vision Board?” calls listeners of this podcast to re-examine the importance of a vision board or dream board as it is the central axle for which the entire universe rotates, even when considered from the perspective of the creation narrative in the Book of Genesis how God clearly outlined His purpose for creating the universes and us. Vision board, therefore, is extremely important as it helps us establish a clear direction for our life project, and also h...

Dealing with the Ministry of Distraction

Based on (Nehemiah 6:1-17) ‘Dealing with the Ministry of Distraction’ invites listeners of this podcast to consider the scheming of the enemy as they seek to undermine our God given visions for our lives as exemplified in the story of Nehemiah and how he overcame the agents of the ministry of distraction in the characters of Sanballat, Tobiah, and Geshem.

Showing Mercy to the Undeserving

Based on 2 Samuel 9:1-11 “Showing Mercy to the Undeserving” a call for justice to all of God’s creation especially those He created in His own very image. No one created by God is undeserving because every single creation of God is deserving otherwise God the creator would not expend His time creating a worthless and an “undeserving individual”. God is all knowing and in His omniscience formed you who is making out time to listen to this podcast today. God’s servant David never seems to forget w...

Facing What is Facing You

Based on Hebrews 11:13-19 “F” is a call to Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ to take steps of faith, and move away from what they may be afraid of in times of uncertainty. This is because the child of God is privilege to have a special relationship with Jesus Christ who the scripture says is , “the same yesterday, and today, and for ever.” (Hebrews 13:8).

All lives Matters to God

Based on Genesis 4:1-10 ‘All lives Matters to God’ is a clarion call to all Christians to reconsider the values we place on all lives no matter the colour of skin, age, social disposition and even the unborn because the concept of the creation of the human person begins and ends with God. Every human being is created in the "image of God", a proper understanding of this concept will help us to place high premium on the sanctity of all lives. (Mark 12:31) “Love your neighbour as yourself. There i...

The Consequence of going with the Plain

Based on (Genesis 13:5-12) “The Consequence of going with the Plain” identifies the cause of the trouble that Lot encountered as a result of his decision to go with the plain land of Sodom. From the very beginning, of their journey something went wrong with the choice that Lot made.

Waiting for the time of Renewal

Based on Isaiah 40:27-31 “Waiting for the time of Renewal” invites listeners of this podcast to consider some of the lessons to be learned in difficult times, and if there is any lesson to be learnt from COVID-19, it is the lesson of waiting, the act of waiting has increasingly become an herculean task in postmodern society.

The Reality of Spiritual Warfare

Based on (Ephesians 6:10-18) The Reality of Spiritual Warfare invites you to consider seriously the reality and the nature of the spiritual warfare raging against us today. In writing to the Ephesian Church Brother Paul calls on the Church to stay focus on the sovereignty of Lord because it is only in Lord that they be bold enough to withstand the arsenal of the enemy. It is not enough to be strong; they must also understand that there are sets of equipment they need to make victory happen in th...

Let my People Go

Based on Exodus 5:1-10 “Let my people go” calls us to reflect on the events of the last few days and raises concerns among the people of God and the role they are playing in the struggle for racial justice in our racially charged society.

This is because Christians are particularly ca...
