WELCOME  to the third installment of  GENERATIONS.

Last week, we started a brand-new series titled  GENERATIONS: How You Were Shaped—And What You Can Do About It.       In Talk 2:  How Each Generation Works,  we explore how each generation relates to work in various ways–and if we follow God and love our neighbor, these differences can complement and bless the world.       The key message of Talk 2:  God works through your work.

WE’RE starting a brand-new series titled  GENERATIONS: How You Were Shaped—And What You Can Do About It. Generations are groups of people born within the same, roughly 15- to 20-year time period, who share similar social, historical, and cultural experiences during their formative years. Because they grew up in the same context, they tend to develop similar values, attitudes, and behaviors, which...

WELCOME to the last Talk of our series,  CALLED TO WITNESS.        This is the last talk of our series  CALLED TO WITNESS.  Talk 5 presents the other  4 Qualities of a Loving  Community: Forgiving; Courageous; Humble; and Committed.

Instead,...

OUR series,  CALLED TO WITNESS,  disturbs our comfortable life,  because in this 5-Talk course, we’re exploring what it means to  evangelize ,  to be witnesses for God. But being God’s witness is dangerous. Talk 3 presents martyrs–those who were persecuted, who died,  as they openly lived and defended their faith amid non-Christian countries or environments. God still calls us to be His witnesses—...

WELCOME to the second installment of our series,  CALLED TO WITNESS: How To Share The Good News with Your World.      Talk 1   What Good News Are You Sharing?  defined what is  Good News  (It is Jesus, not a retirement home in Heaven).

Talk 6 is titled  Already– But Not Yet  because yes, God’s House– we– are already up.

The Popular Promise:  Jeremiah 29:11 is one of the most beloved verses in the Bible, but it was originally spoken to people who had lost absolutely everything—prisoners and deportees in Babylon.  The Meaning of Shalom:  The “prosperity” God promises is  Shalom , which refers to wholeness and right relationships with God, others, and self, rather than mere material wealth.  The Call to Engage:  God...

WELCOME to the second-to-last installment of our series, No Longer Strangers, our deep dive into Ephesians, the queen of the Pauline Epistles. In our modern world today, it’s normal to lie, steal, fight, get drunk, watch porn, act selfishly, and forget the poor. Our Christianity is about piety, not integrity. Filipinos are religious, not ethical. There’s a massive gap between our identity and our...

We continue our enlightening series,   No Longer Strangers. Last week, Talk 3, God Has a Family , affirmed that we are not strangers to one another.       Since we are all in just one family, does it follow that we are united? If you’re a member of a family, you’ll most likely answer “No.” We struggle through conflicts in our family.       Talk 4, however,  tells us that unity among family members...

We are now in the middle of our series, No Longer Strangers.      Talk 3, God Has a Family , affirms that we are not strangers from one another.       Every single human being has equal dignity, equal identity, and equal inheritance—because we’re all children of God. No exception.        Even if we look at the world today, there is so much painful inequality. Which makes us think: “Maybe God loves...

WELCOME to Talk 2 of our new Feast Talk series: No Longer Strangers.        Talk 1 explored the first chapter of the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Ephesians , where he opened with a majestic hymn of praise celebrating the Father’s glorious Plan.
