Based on 1 Samuel 1:1-20 ‘The efficacy of Prayer’ invites listeners to reflect on the story of Hannah. The book of Samuel begins at a critical time in Israel’s history, a time of transition between the judges and the kings. It was a period of disorderliness however, 1 Samuel is an amazing book, it is full of some eccentric characters, battles and heroes, romance and treachery, deception and conspi...

Based on Ruth 1: 1-18 Determination and faithfulness, calls listeners to reflect on the uncommon act of determination and faithfulness exhibited by this exceptional Moabite woman Ruth and her Mother-in-law Naomi and how the simple act of faithfulness to each other helped them to overcome their tripartite bereavement and desperation story, and as they found hope for the future. This may be your sto...

“The Ultimate Pilgrim” based on Hebrews 11:13-16, invites Christians to consider who we are on this very important pilgrimage here on earth as it is so easy to forget this fact especially when we allow ourselves to be overtaken by the events of this life and as a result we have the propensities to make light of this great privilege to be counted as followers of Jesus Christ. The word “pilgrim” mea...

Based on Exodus 16:1-6 and John 6:25-35 “The Bread for the Journey Man” invites you to consider the planet’s most recognised and loved food (Bread). We have been eating bread for such a long time, but sometimes it is hard to understand how this cherished food attained its coveted status to the extent that Jesus Christ chose the correlation of bread of all food available in his day to make his poin...

Based on Matthew 16:21-25, “What is good about Good Friday” calls us to reflect on this Christian holiday of the inglorious crucifixion of Jesus Christ at Calvary as a process of achieving the glorious resurrection on Sunday. To be a Christian is to accept and embrace Good Friday, but embracing Good Friday is nothing short of accepting suffering and torture in principle. We know that an invitation...

The Future lies ahead not in the past is based on Exodus 6:1-7. Sometimes we act as if our future lies in the past and we reminisce nostalgically. For 400 years the Israelites were in slavery in Egypt and all they knew was oppression by Egypt’s rulers, they worked and worked, there was no rest. They prayed and prayed, until the only words they could manage was “Lord please deliver us!” Finally, Go...

Triumphant Entry based on Luke 19:28- 40 invites you to consider the events that led to the crucifixion and subsequent resurrection of Jesus the Christ. Although not noted in Luke’s Gospel we are told by commentators that it is quite likely that there was another boisterous entry on the day that Jesus Christ entered into Jerusalem, even though it was political. Entering first was the Roman Governo...

Based on Matthew 6:9-13 the LORD’S PRAYER is arguably one of the most notable teachings of Jesus Christ in the Bible. Christians around the world read it, memorise it, pray it and sing it. In some churches services are never concluded until the Lord’s Prayer is said. However, I invite us to take a critical look at it again, this is because the Lord’s prayer has become a monotonous religious ritual...

“The last jar on your shelf”, based on the John 12:1-8 invites listeners to reflect on this captivating power packed, act of Mary the sister of Lazarus who was brought back to life by their friend Jesus the Christ. The story is about true love and faith, friendship and extravagant giving without inhibition and is also about what Mary did, how she did it and why she did it. The action of Mary in th...

The title of this podcast is “You are a Divine Project; (John 1:30-42) this podcast invites listeners to consider the special place we occupy as God’s project (not yet finished). The podcast is based on the Apostle Peter’s first encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ. Peter no doubt is one of the most captivating followers of Jesus Christ, the encounter changed his world view. A personal encounter w...

Perfect Storm (“Lord, Don’t You Care?”) based on Mark 4:35-41 calls us to consider our struggles in life. As part of the package of living in this world are the turbulences we encounter, sometimes these troubles appear strange and out of this world but in the spiritual realm they are not designed to destroy us but to make us strong because a faith that has not been tested cannot be trusted. Are yo...

The title of this Podcast is ‘Metanoia’ (repentance), based on Luke 13: 1-9 (a necessary change for Salvation) but what in the world is Metanoia? Metanoia is a transliteration of Ancient Greek word which means a “change in one's way of life resulting from penitence or spiritual conversion”. Some of you here today may have experienced Metanoia at one point or the other. I use this word instead of s...

This Podcast based on the Gospel of Luke 13:31-35 invites you to consider Jesus’ disposition in the face of intense hostility and confrontation from the powers that be, between the Secular and the Sacred. How did he stayed cool and collected? It was his confidence in his own undisputed identity. If only his twenty-first century followers will model their lives on such outstanding examples, then ac...

Deuteronomy 26:1-11 deals with the act of remembrance and thanksgiving of what God has done in the life of the children of Israel. Giving thanks therefore is one of the most important cardinal points that defines God’s people, it distinguishes them from others who do not see the need to be thankful. The message of this chapter shapes our affection for God and draws us closer to God as we remember...

Quest, not the Conquest (Deuteronomy 34:1-12) Most of us have discovered by now that life does not synchronise like Hollywood movies that can be reordered by the director, and even if it is a supernatural movie and you are member of the cast and crew then God is the Scriptwriter, Executive Producer and the Director, all these three ensures that there is a vision, and that the vision is cast proper...

Exodus 34:29-35 and Luke 9:28-43 A supernatural encounter with God is awe inspiring and has the potential to reform and transform our character, the two narratives we are going to read clearly desaturates that those who had these supernatural encounters with God were never the same again. In the same way if you have really really had an encounter with God you also will never remain the same again,...

In post-modern world it is increasingly becoming difficult to know if someone believes in Jesus Christ. It is even worrying when those who should know don’t know. The thrust of this podcast is if you believe. Do you really believe in Jesus Christ? My hope is that this podcast will provoke you to think. God bless you. Hosted on Acast.

Unreserved Grace to forgive (Genesis 45:3-11) calls us to the task of loving our enemies, yet such goodness is not easy to covet. The story of Joseph is a prime example then and now, his story begins in Genesis chapter thirty-seven when his own brothers, those he loved and should love him back sold him into slavery in Egypt for profit and it ended in chapter fifty, when he died. In Egypt Joseph wa...

Each year people make New Year Resolutions but fail to sustain them however, for Christians it is renewing covenant with God. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The title of this message is “Trusting and Obeying Jesus Christ’s command” (base on Isaiah 6:1-13 and Luke 5:1-11). I find this Old and New Testament text very interesting, the two aptly demonstrates the defects and shortcomings of our common humanity, Isaiah was confronted with the glory of God and was astonished by it, the disciples saw the miraculous and they were confounded by it. The God in I...

My chosen text today is one of the most difficult-to-preach in a world that has suffered so greatly from godly spiritual erosion, but the Bible categorically states, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” (2 Timothy 3:...

The Church’s Spiritual Map Podcast Where is the Church today on the Map? Christianity has been sacrificed on the altar of liberalism in the Global North and syncretism in the Global South. The true Church is gasping for oxygen and therefore need to retrace its steps to the beginning of beginning only then can these social onslaughts be contained. It seems that the Book of Revelation 2: 1-5 and 3:...
