The Pursuit of Happiness
The enduring appeal of The Pursuit of Happyness lies not merely in its inspiring narrative, but in the deeper question it raises—what does it truly mean to be happy?
Because Christ Is Risen, We Are Sent
Many have noted that the greatest evangelist is undoubtedly Jesus himself. Apart from the way he connected with the Samaritan woman at the well and led her to faith in him (John 4:7-14), Jesus also came alongside two men who were on their way to Emmaus to help them understand that his death and resurrection were in fulfilment of Scriptures and in accordance to God’s redemption plan (Luke 24:13-35).
Appreciating the Love of God!

God called Jesus his Beloved when he rose from the waters of the Jordan after his baptism, and he did it again in Jesus’ transfiguration which we commemorate today.
“And behold, a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.’” (Matthew 3:17, 17:5)
On Prayer (Part 3): If Satan Has Been Defeated, Pray For What?!
I thought I’d start Part 3 with a high-stakes quiz.
There are only two questions, but your answers will define how you view every struggle in your life:

(2) Do Christians still have to contend with his schemes?
