Many of the traditional notions we hold about love, sex and marriage are inaccurate and economics is really the driving force behind most of our decisions in such matters. Do you agree with this point of view? Whatever your view point visit the Pride Conference website (www.prideconference.org) and let your views be known on the conference blog.xosotin chelseathông tin chuyển nhượngcâu lạc bộ bóng đá arsenalbóng đá atalantabundesligacầu thủ haalandUEFAevertonxosokeonhacaiketquabongdalichthidau7m.newskqbdtysokeobongdabongdalufutebol ao vivofutemaxmulticanaisonbethttps://bsport.fithttps://onbet88.ooohttps://i9bet.bizhttps://hi88.ooohttps://okvip.athttps://f8bet.athttps://fb88.cashhttps://vn88.cashhttps://shbet.atbóng đá world cupbóng đá inter milantin juventusbenzemala ligaclb leicester cityMUman citymessi lionelsalahnapolineymarpsgronaldoserie atottenhamvalenciaAS ROMALeverkusenac milanmbappenapolinewcastleaston villaliverpoolfa cupreal madridpremier leagueAjaxbao bong da247EPLbarcelonabournemouthaff cupasean footballbên lề sân cỏbáo bóng đá…
The third part of the four-part series, in which the author examines what it means to walk by faith and not by sight. The Implications of this walk for here and now. Most of us are seeking direction for our lives, and are influenced by the things that are seen. We want to know the purpose God has created us for, so that we can live a purposeful and fulfilling life. We desire to discern what the future holds. We also want to know how God will answer our prayers and how He will solve our problems. We want a…

The second part of the four part series, in which the author examines what it means to walk by faith and not by sight. The second letter of St Paul to the Corinthians, Chapter 5 discusses the most obvious objects we see: our bodies. The visible body is described as a tent, earthly, groaning, burdened and mortal. Yes, like all things we see in this world, our bodies are temporary. Yet God is preparing for us something eternal, in the heavens, and further clothed. That is, an eternal, incorruptible body. Verse 4 says: “what is mortal may be swallowed up…
In this four-part series, Charles Anyiam-Osigwe examines what it means to walk by faith, and not by sight. Life’s journey for everyone (without exception) is a challenging one. No matter our race, gender, creed, or financial status, we will all face adversity as we traverse this earthly plane. The adversity could come in one form or the other: financial hardship, poor health, divorce, the loss of a loved one, a handicap, among others. Oftentimes, these challenges overwhelm us. Have you ever paused to reflect, that the reason we are most times unable to cope with these challenges is because we…
Let us approach God’s throne of grace with an attitude of expectation of blessings. Sometimes we are really tired, indeed worn out and weary because over the past years, we may have experienced many challenges to our faith in the form of loss, pain, unfulfilled expectations, rejection and other failings. This feeling of weariness may be compounded as we observe that some of our acquaintances, friends or relations are being blessed – their dreams and aspirations fulfilled. Their prayers are being answered and our own prayers seem to go unanswered. This watching as others are being blessed while we are…
By Fr. Jude B. Kuti Whether you are single, married, divorced or separated, what you are about to read is important. I once heard that there is a place in Nevada where divorce is common with 14.6% of its residents divorced and 2.4% separated. So wedding vendors felt foiled by the repeated trading in of wedding rings, gowns and other accessories. So many shops simply and boldly inscribe “wedding rings for rent.” Maybe rentable for 6 months, 2 years depending on how long the marriage would last. The most important decision in your life is not the choice of school…
Many young people in their mid to late twenties, and dare I say some in their thirties who are single and desiring marriage often question why God hasn’t delivered their spouse to them, with no hassles or fuss as they had always assumed he would when they were growing up. What is the matter?! There has been no end to asking God to bring the partner. The request has been made with much fasting and prayers as one year turns into another with no viable partner in site. Has one been praying amiss? Is it time to focus one’s prayer…
“To me there are three things everyone should do every day. Number one is laugh. Number two – spend some time in thought. Number three; you should have your emotions move you to tears. If you laugh, think, and cry, that’s a heck of a day.” – Jim Valvano (North Carolina State basketball coach Jim Valvano died in 1993 after a 10-month courageous battle with bone cancer. He was only 47 years old). How many times have we heard that “Men don’t cry?”. This singular statement, which I am sure if we are adults, we have heard since we were…
