YOUR WEAKNESSES ARE NOT A PROBLEM FOR JESUS

YOUR WEAKNESSES ARE NOT A PROBLEM FOR JESUS by Adriel Sanchez for Core Christianity I recently had a conversation with an older brother in Christ who was diagnosed two years ago with multiple myeloma, an incurable cancer.

Christians must speak truth to power – whatever the consequences

Christians must speak truth to power – whatever the consequences by Ben Kwashi  for Christian Today There are times when the people of God must speak truth to power. Whatever the consequences. Someone must call for change. If not us, who? I had an early baptism of fire in 1985 when the Commission for Education decided to build a mosque right next to an Anglican church – St Michael’s in Zaria.
