Firstborn over Everything and the Church Read Colossians 1:15-23 Christ our Saviour is born today!

Being Humble, Rejoice, and Ponder Read Luke 2:1-21 Given that Luke knew who Jesus is and the earth-shattering consequences of what Jesus has done, one would have thought that, Luke, in writing his Gospel accounts, would be more excited in recounting the birth of Jesus Christ. Luke wrote his account of the Gospel after carefully […]
Love Came Down Read John 3:16-21 Love has been talked about much in recent years, particularly in the wake of the same-sex marriage debate.
