Some deeper learning in the things of Christ, who He is, what He says and does, who we are as His body…..
Book Launch Before moving on to today’s post, as promised, I am stoked to share with you the book launch for To the Young Believer that took place with CLC Kenya last week. The launch took place via Zoom, and live on Facebook. It is an hour-long interview with the CLC Kenya National Director, the beautiful Muthoni Mercy Omukhango. Muthoni asked some great questions, some I was prepared for and some I wasn’t, which was a lot of fun! It…
I have included three songs in my upcoming new title, Food for the Table: Christ our Real Food (A Book of Blogs). You can click here to listen to the above, entitled Jealous Keeping. In the year 2019, my heartstrings were really being pulled. I struggled with familial loyalties while living far from my family. It was a really tough experience because I had no real assurance that I would return to them. I only had a faint whisper that…

Our worst case scenario can be God’s best case scenario. When Caleb saw the giants in the land promised to them, he said this; “Only rebel not against Jehovah, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is removed from over them, and Jehovah is with us: fear them not.” (Numbers 14:9 ASV) The way through the cross is by embracing it. We fear because we are trying to avoid suffering. If…

Jesus said “… I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly” (John 10:10) He also said “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies” (John 11:25) Again He said “I am the way, and the truth, and the life…” (John 14:6). Elsewhere, He told us “Do not store up for yourselves, treasures on earth…but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven…”(Matt 6:19-20) And further, “…for where your…
Compromise. There’s just no place for it in the Kingdom of God. Therefore, there’s no place for it in the lives of believers. Yet, it’s easy for compromise to sneak in even unnoticed at times. So here’s some examples in my life of how this has occured very recently and what I’ve learned from it, to pass on to you. Example 1 Derek and I felt in our hearts that the Lord wanted us to move to a suburb of…
Sometimes it’s not until I notice others around me are drinking water, that I become acutely or even remotely aware of my own thirst. We all have the need to drink from the Living Water, that River and Water of Life that is Christ’s Life in us. The Fountain of Life, the Well that will never run dry. Jesus said that for us who believe, out from us will flow rivers of Living water also, i.e. His Life. “…but whoever…
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death…(Philippians 3:10) What a beautiful and rich desire Paul had and what a powerful indicator this verse is, of where our lives as believers ought to be headed. There’s two aspects of this verse that I would like to write about and I’ll do it as a two- part series. Firstly, ‘The Power of His Resurrection’ and secondly, ‘The…
