The Power of Praise
The Power of Praise: Using Social Media to Uplift In a world where negativity can spread faster than light, it’s easy to forget the power we each hold in our words. A single comment online can either uplift someone’s spirit or crush it. With one post, we can plant seeds of encouragement—or discouragement. In a time when social media often becomes a battleground of comparison, criticism, and division, what if we chose something radically different? What if we used our voices to praise? Why Praise Matters Praise is more than a compliment. It’s a form of recognition. It says, I see you. I value you. I celebrate you. In a…
Why This Place and Not That One?
Why This Place—and Not That One? Many people choose where to sit, work, or socialize without much thought. Even if a space appears ideal—quiet, clean, organized, and well-equipped—it can still feel “off.” You might struggle to focus, find your creativity stifled, or experience low productivity. Why does this happen? Because it’s not just about being in a peaceful-looking environment. Atmosphere goes beyond the physical—it’s emotional, mental, and spiritual. Sometimes, the space simply doesn’t support who you are or the vision you’re trying to bring to life. Here’s What That Might Look Like: 1. Mismatch of Values You’re working on something with heart, purpose, or creativity—but the space around you feels…
Handling Conflict
When Sparks Fly: Navigating Conflict God’s Way Let’s be honest: conflict is an inescapable part of life. Whether it’s a minor disagreement with a loved one or a major dispute at work, we all encounter situations where opinions clash and emotions run high. While our natural inclination might be to avoid conflict, lash out, or nurse a grudge, the Bible offers a profoundly different and powerfully effective path to resolution. What does the Bible say about resolving conflicts? 1. Prioritize Peacemaking and ReconciliationOur goal should never be to “win” an argument, but to restore relationships and glorify God. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”…
Honoring Fathers
Embracing the Journey of Kairos If we believe that God’s timing is perfect, then the waiting is not a punishment — it’s a part of the promise. But what do we do in the meantime? Between the planting and the harvest? Between the prayer and the answer? This is the space where faith is not just a word — it becomes a lifestyle. One of the most powerful examples of living in the “kairos gap” is found in the story of Joseph. Sold into slavery, falsely accused, imprisoned — for years, it looked like his dreams were forgotten. But God was not late. He was working behind the…

Living in the In-Between – Embracing the Journey of Kairos We believe that God’s timing is perfect, then the waiting is not a punishment — it’s a part of the promise.

Kairos: Trusting God’s Perfect timing
Kairos – God’s Perfect Timing There is something deeply comforting about knowing that God is not bound by our clocks or calendars. While we often live by schedules, appointments, and deadlines, the Creator of time Himself moves in a different rhythm — one that is holy, purposeful, and perfect. The Bible introduces us to this idea through two different words for time: chronos and kairos. Chronos is the ticking of the clock — linear, measurable time. But kairos is different. Kairos refers to the appointed time, the divine moment, the God-ordained intersection where His will unfolds exactly as it should. We find a beautiful reflection of this in Ecclesiastes 3:1,…
Love Never Fails
Love NEVER FAILS As followers of Christ, we are commissioned to “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons, they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink anything deadly, it will not harm them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” (Mark 16:15–18) When we pray for healing, we can sometimes fall into the mindset that illness or suffering is a result…
