Send us Fan Mail Today, we discuss the humiliation Jesus faced with over 600 soldiers. He was abused, beaten, spat on and mocked by both the people and soldiers. Even with all going on He didn't respond... The Son of Man was relentless and  zealous on the journey of saving the world; saving you and I and ensuring the will of the Father comes to pass. Bible Text for this episode: Matt 27:27-31...

Send us Fan Mail As we continue to discuss the happenings before the crucifixion of Jesus,  It is inspiring to see the Son of God with all His power humble himself in the face of the high priest and other mere men . Jesus’ experience speaks completely of humility solely to give passage to ensure the will of God comes to pass. He is a role model for that Humility we should wear as our armor as we j...

Send us Fan Mail Today we look at the life of Joseph. God is very deliberate - He places us situations quite similar to where He is taking us, to prepare us for what is ahead. Let us use Joseph as an example, at 17, Joseph experienced a similar to what he experienced in Potiphar's house. At 17, his father ( the head of the house) loved him more than all his brothers, and his brothers were ver...

Send us Fan Mail Today we continue learning from Joseph’s brothers and discuss pride. In many cases, the destiny helpers God send to us, may not be who we expect.

Send us Fan Mail Today we learn from Joseph's brothers. Joseph's brothers were too buried in their stuff- hatred, offense, scheming that they could not see the destiny helper God had placed right before them - their annoying brother Joseph... In many cases, the destiny helpers God send to us, may not look like what we imagine in your dreams... I have experienced this too many times. I pr...
