“Through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father” (Ephesians 2:18 NKJV).   The holy Trinity is one of the imponderables of almighty God. God is One, manifesting Himself in three persons as the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I am not bothered by the fact that it is a great mystery and difficult to grasp. In fact, if I could understand it all, there would not be much to it. This is why the Christian life is a life of faith. Philosophy might attempt to explain it, but it cannot change. Christianity changes lives […]

Omar Aleman: Once Upon a Time

The Fountain of Youth is a mythical spring which is supposed to erase some of the years time has bestowed upon us. Somehow Ponce de Leon and the state of Florida make claim to this fabled site. No need for me to travel to St. Augustine to get a piece of the action; this tender wellspring simply walks into our home each time that our daughter Ruthie pays a visit. She is young and beautiful, both inside and out, and I am blessed to be infused with this novel source on a regular basis. She reminds me so much of […]

In the early days of seaside life and commerce along the coasts of the United Kingdom, danger was a daily reality. With unpredictable storms, rugged shorelines and limited navigation tools, shipwrecks were frequent, and lives were lost. In response, ordinary people — fisherman, teachers, blacksmiths and clergy — banded together to form rescue societies. These groups were fueled by urgency, compassion and a singular mission: save lives at sea. They built lifeboats. They trained volunteers. They braved the worst weather imaginable, rowing into violent storms pulling strangers from certain death. These rescue societies were gritty, sacrificial and profoundly purpose driven.  […]

Stephan Tchividjian: In-BEtweens

We are fresh from celebrating Lent, Good Friday and Easter. I must say, each year I experience something a little different. One moment of reflection for me was the day in between Friday and Sunday, Saturday. I imagined what was going on in the earthly world of the disciples and followers of Jesus but also what was going on in the Heavenly world with Jesus and His angels. These thoughts drew me to consider how the In-betweens of life make an impact. Sunsets make you think it’s the end of one thing and the beginning of another: it’s an in-between. […]

As I write this, I have just finished preaching the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to more than 430,000 people gathered in Meskel Square in the city center of Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia. I praise God for the thousands who repented of their sins and professed their faith in Jesus Christ during the two-day Encountering God outreach. Sixty-five years ago, my father preached the same Gospel message of faith and repentance in Christ in this same Ethiopian capital. Since then, the world has changed, politics have changed, but the Gospel does not change. It’s the same yesterday, […]

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me. Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me” (Psalm 23:4 NKJV). There are a lot of voices and volumes around today telling us how to live. Self-help books and motivational videos are a dime a dozen in our world. But there is only one book that tells us how to die. And there is no one verse in this Book of all books that is more poignant and pertinent to the subject than the fourth verse of the […]

“No longer will there be any curse . . . ‘for the old order of things has passed away’” (Revelation 22:3, 21:4).   This month we celebrate Easter, and let me make something perfectly clear – EASTER IS FOR EVERYONE but not EVERYONE IS FOR EASTER! Easter is for everyone who, by grace through faith, will acknowledge Jesus as the crucified and risen Savior of the world, confess and repent of their sin, and receive the forgiveness of God the Father and Jesus as Lord over their lives. If this is you, oh what a word of encouragement I have […]

As we approach Easter, there are numerous opportunities to remember the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made: defeating sin through his death and resurrection. The powerful truth of Christ’s love for humanity compels us to shine His love throughout every aspect of our lives. In this article by Dr. Jonathan Grenz, PBA Dean of the School of Ministry, he observes the power of the cross, God’s provisions, and what it means for each of us to shine the light of Christ in our relationships, contributions and vocation. Year after year, Easter inspires deep reflection as well as celebration for Christians around […]
