You may have heard the story of Joseph as recorded in the Bible book of Genesis, but have you considered his life and how it parallels the life of Black Folk. I use the name “Black Folk” in an endearing way as it some how embodies the turbulent, drama ridden, yet persevering lives of those... Continue Reading →
Repairing the Breaches
As Christians, we have been given the ministry of reconciliation. We are the repairers of the breaches. The sin of disobedience and idolatry has caused breaches in the Church which has facilitated the spread of breaches in society at large. Reconciliation is the process of mending these breaches, repairing the rifts created by neglecting truth,... Continue Reading →
Repairing the Damage Caused by Eurocentric Christianity and Colonization
Many people see Christ as a New Testament revelation with His gospel being spread primarily from the West to the rest of the world.

Only Truth Makes Us Free
I just finished a study on Truth with some faithful brothers. We looked at the questions; What it is Truth? and What is our responsibility to Truth?

Your Cross, The Burden and The Benefit
I read an article recently which attempted to persuade readers that there was no biblical or spiritual basis for Christians to reject homosexuality. It doesn’t require deep hermeneutics to see plainly in scripture that GOD has resolutely forbidden homosexuality and other sexual immoralities. After reading the article and the flawed evidence for their view put... Continue Reading →
Don’t hit snooze…Wake Up!
